PDF PriceList

[alphamike92]

Hello everyone,

I'm new here so I might be posting in the wrong place right now.

So I have made a product catalogue with photos of each products and I need to put prices on them.

The problem is that I have 3 different prices for each product(let's name the them price 1, price 2, price 3) and there are over 1500 products on my catalogue.

Is there a way to choose which price I want to be shown when enteringredients the catalogue. For example: I enter the catalogue and the price tags are blank, I press "show price 2"(or whatever) and the price tags are filled with price 2.

Note that I make and edit my catalogue pages using photoshop. Also I export my pricelists into excel format from a software that I use  for my inventory control.

Sorry for my English

Thank you in advance

Yes, it's possible, but it would require a custom-made script.

The way I would do it is like this:

- Next to each product create a text field for the price.

- Export the prices list to a tab-delimited text file and attach that file to the PDF.

- Use a script to read in that prices list and then populate the fields based on the button the user clicks.

So if the user clicks on button 1 the script will read the column from the text file that corresponds to price #1, and populate all of the fields in the file with the values from it. The mapping between the data file and the fields can be done using the catalog number, which can be the name of the field.

This is not a simple scripting task, though, especially not for someone without prior knowledge of Acrobat JavaScript.
If you're interested in hiring someone to develop this script for you, feel free to contact me privately at try6767 at gmail.com and we could discuss it further.
