queXML

Need to create multiple files as PDF from single xml

Asked by Ritesh Ravlani

Hi,

I am new to QueXML, I am using it in my asp.net, MVC application.

Our system creates a well formed XML questionnaire. after completing a questionnaire - XML is generated and saved on users system. now using queXML we can create PDF from the xml and it is working fine for me. (I am using setup of queXML on windows)

I have a requirement where I wants to create multiple PDF's with different bar-codes from single upload of xml file.

I have searched lot but didn't got any useful information to achieve this, can you please guide me or provide any documentation link to achieve mentioned functionality.

Thanks,
Ritesh

Hi Ritesh,

If you want to include an "identifying" barcode on multiple generated questionnaires, I'd suggest you add a question with the response being of type <free> with <format>i25</format> for example, with the attribute "defaultvalue" set with the barcode value you wish to insert.

eg.
<question>
<response defaultvalue="12345">
<free>
<format>i25</format>
</free>
</response>
</question>

Then on the queXML generation side, you would need to implement a method for generating multiple copies of the queXML file with updated default values to generate multiple PDF's.
