Example
This script sets a boundary when the text TOTAL is found on the current page in a PDF file.
The number of delimiters is set to 1, so the boundary is set on the next delimiter, which is the
start of the next page.
if (boundaries.find("TOTAL", region.createRegion
(10,10,215,279)).found) {
boundaries.set(1);
}
Assume you want to set record boundaries whenever the text "TOTAL" appears in a specific
region of the page of a PDF file, but the PDF file has already been padded with blank pages for
duplexing purposes. The boundary should therefore be placed at the end of the page where the
match is found if that match occurs on an even page, or at the end of the next blank page, if the
match occurs on an odd page. Recall that for PDF files, the natural delimiter is a PDF page.
The JavaScript code would look something like the following:
var myRegion = region.createRegion(150,220,200,240);
if(boundaries.find("TOTAL", myRegion).found) {
/* a match was found. Check if we are on an odd or even page and
set the Boundary accordingly */
if((boundaries.currentDelim % 2) !=0 ) {
/* Total is on odd page, let's set the document Boundary one
delimiter further, thereby skipping the next blank page */
boundaries.set(1);
} else {
/* Total is on an even page, set the document Boundary to the
current delimiter */
boundaries.set();
}
}
}
setVariable()
This method sets a variable in the boundaries to the specified value, automatically creating the
variable if it doesn't exist yet.
