Is there a way to use variables with multipage PDFs

Hello,

 

Does anyone know if you can use variables with multipage PDFs?

 

At the moment variables will only import single-page PDFs, but will not work with multipage ones?

 

Thanks.

Hello @tomh67854017,

 

Thanks for reaching out. Would you mind sharing more details, like the version of OS/Illustrator you are using, the workflow, and a sample code, so we can better assist you? Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Thanks,

Hi there, using the latest version of illustrator on a mac and are trying to use variables to import a multipage PDF onto an artboard.

 

I can use variables with single page PDFs with ease (i.e. @VARIABLE1 and then list the file name/path.) Then importing into illustrator using variables, this works fine. However, with multipage PDFs it will not import them.

 

Do you know if there is a way to use Variables with multipage PDFs?

 

Thanks.
