Dynamic printing of multiply pages from one layout

[Claus Lavendt]

I got a problem.

I have a layout with 5 pages below each other. There is a header, wich shall be printed on every pages. The other content is placed in the body.

Page 1 is some text+portals, which will always be printed.

Page 2 is a text field, which shall only be printed if the content is not empty.

Page 3 - 5 has a container field on each.

Those pages shall only be printed, if the container fields is not empty to avoid empty pages. I can't make that happen now.

I have tried with sliding and reduce part, but that creates a new problem. If the content of container field 1 (page 3) only fills half of the field, it will then schrimp and put the container field 2 (page 4) halfway up on page 3. That means that the container field 2 will be cut in 2

As said, only thoose pages with content in its fields shall be printed. There are only 1 field on each of the pages 2 - 5.

The format is 11,50 X 15,30 cm

(putting the contents on several layouts is not an option)

Anyone have a clue ?

About the only thing I can suggest is to make multiple layouts, one with just page 1, one with pages 1 + 2 etc. Then script the print process so that the appropriate layout is selected for printing.
