June 26, 200718 yr Hi! Is it possible to count how many pages were printed on specific layout for record? I want accomplish printing original and duplicate documents. If user printed 3 original documents, fourth document would be marked as a duplicate on print. Thanks
June 27, 200718 yr Hi, If I understand, there's no direct solution to this. If you asked for 4 copies of the same document, what you'd get is 4 identical copies. One solution could be to acomplish this with a loop, selecting the number of copies to be printed outside of the print dialog box ( in a global number field for example ) and then execute a loop printing the document once only, but as many times as the loop is set for. Then, when you have reached a $loop value of 4, you may initiate another global ( or calculation field ) to flag the document as a duplicate. HTH
