PAH and PDF Scripts

I have a request to display some text on the PAH ticket if the seat purchased is in a particular section, and not if it is any other section. Does someone know a way to do this?

I thought JavaScript in the PDF would be a way. A script for On Open that checks the section field, and then displays text if it is the desired section. But even simple scripts I have tried like On Open display today's date does not work once it is generated by TPAH. If you open the PDF template just with Reader, it works fine, but if the forms are filled and it is emailed out by TPAH, it no longer works. Does this behavior make sense?

Thanks

  • Could you provide a script for a user defined element on the ticket?  I’d like to include our current membership but the documentation was pretty vague.

    If I were you I'd add a User Defined Element in LP_TICKET_ELEMENTS that does what you want and add that to your ticket design PDF rather than using Javascript.
