Hey there Fox gang!
OK - I have an issue here regarding labels. We have these UCC labels that get printed via various systems of ours. And, now, one of clients wants to print the labels at their office on the East Coast - and then send them (as PDF Files) to the West Coast warehouse facility. The main problem is that we are looking to try and print the labels in Tandem with the Content Labels. So, for a particular box, you print a UCC label and a Content label. In some cases - and this is part of we need to plan for, a single UCC label/box may require multiple Content labels - depending on what is packed in a Box. Of course, trying to spit the labels out to a Single PDF file is part of the problem, and multiple content labels possible for a single box is just an additional complication. Needless to say - when they print labels, they will do it for a whole shipment - and therefore many boxes - sometimes a thousand or more for BIG Shipments. Is it possible to print 2 different types of labels, in Tandem - and send the whole series out to a single PDF file? I thought I saw something like this discussed in the past on this list. But, the closest I could find is discussions that revolved around this XFRX stuff (which we don't have - and I have never used - but, maybe we could buy it for this project IF ITS Needed!). So - can it be done in pure VFP - or do I really need some kind of add-on? I was also just now wondering about a rather obscure method to do it - where I generate each PDF - then "Glue" them together with a DOS command. I know of files being concatenated together this way in the past - but, not sure what Kind of files. And, maybe it just won't work w/PDF files. Sorry to be long winded - but, I can sure use the insights... Thanks, -K- Senior Developer Waitex Information System, Inc. P Save a tree.
