I have a stack of 10,000 cards I want to number 00001 - 10000.
I have created an xls ss with the numbers 00001-10002 in one column.
The last numbers I need to run to 03334 on stack 1, 06668 on stack 2 and on stack 3 it will be 10002.

I have a vitual page with a picture and a text box with the data variable linked.

The N-up is linked to this page and repeated vertically 3x times.

1. [00001]
2. [03334]
3. [06668]

This is so they can be cut into cards pre stacked in order.

I'm up to the stage where I repeat, but I dont know how to make it so that the numbers flow other than

1. [00001]
2. [00002]
3. [00003]]


Thanks

Ra,

Do you have PlanetPress Watch? If so, we have a plugin for Watch that can rearrange your data files in an order like the one you describe. It's the "Sort for n-Up and Telescoping" plugin. It can be downloaded on our website, in the downloads->PlanetPress Watch Plugins. Here's the direct link to the page:
http://www.objectiflune.com/download/pwplugins.aspx

Scroll down the page and you should find it. Hope this helps.

Regards,
Rapha

Hi Raphael,

This sounds exactly like what I need.

Problem is the .dll cant be registered?

Thanks though!

Ra,

The instructions about registering the dll is wrong... you do not need to do this. Just place the dll in the Program Files\Common Files\Objectif Lune\PlanetPress Suite 5\Plugins folder, and then restart the Watch Configuration tool. You should now be able to use the plugin.

Regards,
Rapha
