Print script OSX FMP7

[bettsy]

Hi guys, just joined. Sorry to annoy.

I'm trying to set up a script to print with no dialog. I'd like the number of pages printed to be defined by the contents of a field in the database. I'd also like another field on the printed form to contain the page number printed (the form is a page long) so that each page has it's own number from 1 to however many pages are printed, based on the contents of the total required field.

Any ideas how I do this on Tiger? Can I do it with FMP scripting or do I need to look at Apple Script or Automator?

Cheers and thanks for your help.

Hi

while in Layout Mode, select from:

Menu Insert >> Page Number Symbol

and place that Symbol into Header or Footer; no need of another field.

For actual choice of number of pages, you're going to have to look at Apple Scripting the process...

Thanks guys. Guess I might have to think of another way... Never give up just change direction:-)
