wrong conditional handling?

[pr-apes]

@pgundlach,

I have the following layout for a source file:

<Layout xmlns="urn:speedata.de:2009/publisher/en"
  xmlns:sd="urn:speedata:2009/publisher/functions/en">

  <Record element="data">
    <Loop select="12" variable="runpage">
     <Pageformat
       width="{if (sd:odd(sd:current-page())) then '297mm' else '210mm'}"
       height="{if (sd:even(sd:current-page())) then '297mm' else '210mm'}"
       />
    <PlaceObject>
    <Textblock>
    <Paragraph>
    <Value select="sd:dummytext(10)"/>
    </Paragraph>
    </Textblock>
    </PlaceObject>
    <ClearPage/>
    </Loop>
  </Record>

</Layout>

The output is processed with the following layout:

<Layout xmlns="urn:speedata.de:2009/publisher/en"
  xmlns:sd="urn:speedata:2009/publisher/functions/en">

  <Record element="data">
    <PlaceObject>
    <Textblock>
    <Loop select="sd:number-of-pages($pdfdoc)" variable="runpage">
    <Paragraph>
    <Value select="sd:aspectratio(concat($pdfdoc, ':', $runpage, ':mediabox'))"/>
    </Paragraph>
    </Loop>
    </Textblock>
     </PlaceObject>
     <ClearPage/>
     <Loop select="sd:number-of-pages($pdfdoc)" variable="runpage">
      <PlaceObject column="105mm" row="148.5mm" hreference="center" vreference="middle">
      <Image file="{$pdfdoc}" page="{$runpage}"
         rotate="{if (not(sd:aspectratio(concat($pdfdoc, ':', $runpage ':mediabox')) > 1)) then '0' else if (sd:odd($runpage)) then '-90' else '90'}"/>
    </Paragraph>
      <ClearPage/>
      </PlaceObject>
    </Loop>
  </Record>

</Layout>

I'm afraid that the main conditional for the rotation doesn't work when the page is portrait. It handles all pages as landscape.

I'm afraid this might be a bug in Publisher (and I would say this worked fine before). Could you check this?

Many thanks for your help.

Your second layout is invalid XML.

I get the following output (1st page)

1.4142851389653 0.70707099470169 1.4142851389653 0.70707099470169 1.4142851389653 0.70707099470169 1.4142851389653 0.70707099470169 1.4142851389653 0.70707099470169 1.4142851389653 0.70707099470169

Which looks correct?

<Layout xmlns="urn:speedata.de:2009/publisher/en"
    xmlns:sd="urn:speedata:2009/publisher/functions/en">
    <SetVariable variable="pdfdoc" select="'out.pdf'"></SetVariable>
    <Record element="data">
        <PlaceObject>
            <Textblock>
                <Loop select="sd:number-of-pages($pdfdoc)" variable="runpage">
                    <Paragraph>
                        <Value select="sd:aspectratio(concat($pdfdoc, ':', $runpage, ':mediabox'))" />
                    </Paragraph>
                </Loop>
            </Textblock>
        </PlaceObject>
        <ClearPage />
        <Loop select="sd:number-of-pages($pdfdoc)" variable="runpage">
            <PlaceObject column="105mm" row="148.5mm" hreference="center" vreference="middle">
                <Image file="{$pdfdoc}" page="{$runpage}"
                    rotate="{if (not(sd:aspectratio(concat($pdfdoc, ':', $runpage ':mediabox')) > 1)) then '0' else if (sd:odd($runpage)) then '-90' else '90'}" />
                </PlaceObject>
                <ClearPage />
        </Loop>
    </Record>

</Layout>

Many thanks for spotting the error, @pgundlach.

The issue was trickier: I wrote sd:aspectratio(concat($pdfdoc, ':', $runpage ':mediabox')), which should read sd:aspectratio(concat($pdfdoc, ':', $runpage, ':mediabox')).

It was missing a comma in concat(). This fixes the sample. I have to look further, since the actual document is still not working fine.
