The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by lesterawilson3 in Adobe Acrobat, Miscellaneous Programming, Windows Batch Scripting
Looking to develop a batch process that will, on a nightly basis, generate PDF files from several hundred flat text files (all named current.xrp - the extension is meaningless - it's a text file, however each file is different an in a different subdirectory), name the PDF file something like report.pdf, and save it in the same subdirectory as the source text file. Then repeat the process the next night - take the latest current.xrp file generated by the system, PDF it and overwrite the current report.pdf file... repeat process each night.
The flat text files were really designed with a 132 column impact printer on green-bar paper - so most reports are in a landscape format.
I have a developer coming in to assist - but looking for other ideas / angles / success stories.
The goal of the project is to develop a reporting menu where reports can be viewed/printed from a web browser. Looking to make things as simple as possible for the end-user - all they have to do is point and click - no configuration other than having Acrobat Reader on their PC's.
Thanks.
