Hi,
does anyone know, how to call an executable file within a XLT?
I need to call a program to convert .doc/.docx-files to pdf.
Input -> path and name of the original file.
Output -> path and name of the converted file.
Regards
Alex
I am not sure you really want to slow down the Xlate by doing file operations during the translation but in a COPY or CALL Action you can issue the Tcl exec command.
If it fits the problem solution perhaps consider doing the file conversion pre-xlate.

Hi Jim,
thank you.
The exec command was what i’m looking for.
Within the Xlate i check if the conversion is necessary or not.
I need to test the performance of the Xlate now.
