Fill out PDF or Word document with variable page count

asked on November 6, 2019

Hello Everyone, I'm looking at possibly using Laserfiche to replace another product we use. The documents are generated from one of our order processing systems. The requirement for Laserficeh would be that it could handle creating a document that is 1 page or 5 pages or 10 pages based on how large the order is. The first page has customer information and basic order details, but the rest of the pages are line items for the order. So you can see that depending on the size of the order, the page count can vary. I'm not sure LF has this capability. Has anyone built a solution like this before or am I'm right in thinking that LF will only fill out forms with a static page count? Thank you.

If you use a table in Word for the line item data, then the word update activity will expand the document across pages based on the size of the table.

 

You'll likely need to expand the header to include header info that would carry over as well from page to oage.

Thanks Steve, after I posted I found an article that walks me through it.
