Hi All,
I’ve been having issues with getting makePDFPresentation to work from inside a hook. I have no issues with exporting or saving via the hook, but I can’t get the equivalent of File>Automate>PDF Presentation to make a multipage PDF to work when using makePDFPresentation. Here’s a sample of what I was testing by throwing it in the validate method
publisher = self.parent
engine = publisher.engine
token_files = []
input_folder = 'pathToFolderWithAllTheImages'
out_file = engine.adobe.File('pathForCombinedPDF')
for file in os.listdir(input_folder):
token_files.append(engine.adobe.File(file))
presentation_options = engine.adobe.PresentationOptions()
presentation_options.presentation = True
presentation_options.view = True
engine.adobe.makePDFPresentation(out_file, out_file, presentation_options)
Any idea why this always throws rpc errors? Or is there another way to create a multipage pdf without using makePDFPresentation?
Thanks,
Tim
