Insert PDF

in Remote Container Fields

In a solution that we are working on we'd like to be able to do a scripted export records to a PDF and then import the newly created PDF into an interactive container field for future viewing.  For some reason the script seems unable to locate the PDF file.

 

I've attached a small prototype file that shows the problem.  I'd be grateful for any assistance that anyone can provide.  In this example I've used the Get(Desktop) file path, but ideally I'd prefer to use Get(TemporaryPath) and not clutter the operator's desktop.

 

Hopefully someone will have a suggestion about what's going on here.  Thanks so much.

Change the path in Insert PDF to 

image:$FilePath

See the Specify PDF File dialog for required/valid path syntax.
