Spawning Multiple Templates using XObject

Question

I have two template pages that are spawned successfully 1 time each with this code I extracted from the SDK:

var a = this.templates;

for (i = 0; i < a.length; i++)

a[i].spawn(this.numPages, false, false);

Unfortunately the file size became rather large with multiple spawns, so I then tried to generate them as XObjects using the code also found in the SDK as it indicated it could reduce filesize; I tweaked the code below to only spawn one time by changing the 30 to a 1.

var t = this.templates;

var T = t[0];

var XO = T.spawn(this.numPages, false, false);

for (var i=0; i<30; i++) T.spawn(this.numPages, false, false, XO);

The problem I am having is that it only recognizes one of my two templates and never spawns the second one. I have tried several different things -- all found on the internet and in the SDK as I'm quite the learner at this -- and have been completely unsuccessful. Any guidance on what I am doing incorrectly would be greatly appreciated - thank you!

It's not entirely clear what you want to accomplish, but if you want to spawn template #1 and then template #2, and repeat that 30 more times, the code could be:

var aTemplates = this.templates;
var T1 = aTemplates[0];
var T2 = aTemplates[1];
   
var XO1 = T1.spawn(this.numPages, false, false);
var XO2 = T2.spawn(this.numPages, false, false);

for (var i = 0; i < 30; i++) {
    T1.spawn(this.numPages, false, false, XO1);
    T2.spawn(this.numPages, false, false, XO2);
}

Why want you 30 versions of the same pages?
