[EP-tech] Re: Coversheets Bazaar plugin problems

Got it, thanks John and Seb,

  I've run a couple of test uploads and it does not seem to be appending (prepending?) the coversheet at all to any pdfs. I've used Sebs test odt file and thrown in a logo for good measure. 

  Cannot find any obvious log to see where things might be going wrong, no errors when I epadmin reload. 

Was there anything else you had to set up to make it go?

thanks,

If you’re on a new-ish version of EPrints, take a look under ‘Manage Records’.

You should be able to see the Coversheets dataset in there…

 

This is also something I’m looking at.

The problem I’m looking into is the metadata of the resulting covered PDF.

I can set metadata in the Coversheet, but when it’s appended, the resultant PDF loses it.

I’m not sure whether it’s the ODF to PDF that’s an issue, or the splicing of two PDFs.

 

Cheers,

John

Subject: [EP-tech] Coversheets Bazaar plugin problems

 

Hello all,

 

  I'm trying to get the coversheets plugin from the bazaar to work. It states that 

 

Coversheets are ready to be used on your system. To add templates go to the Admin page, under 'Config Tools'. 

 

  and we have openoffice installed, pdftk etc but there is nothing appearing under config tools, no options when e.g. uploading a new pdf. 

 

Any suggestions on what to try, or at least what it should look like when it works? 

 

thanks,
