MediaPosition

In a Control Script, the position is an enumeration for the position of background resources for a Print section. It is retrieved and set via background.position.

Field Description
ABSOLUTE Places the PDF at a specific location on the page. Set the background's top (background.top) and left (background.left) measured from the top and left side of the section.
CENTERED Centers the PDF on the page, vertically and horizontally.
FIT_TO_MEDIA Stretches the PDF to fit the page size.

Examples

This script applies absolute positioning to the background of a Print section.

var activeSection = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections['Section 1'];
activeSection.background.source = BackgroundResource.RESOURCE_PDF;
activeSection.background.position = MediaPosition.ABSOLUTE;
activeSection.background.left = "10mm";
activeSection.background.top = "10mm";
activeSection.background.url = "images/somepage.pdf";

The next script scales the background of a Print section to the size of the Media.

var activeSection = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections['Section 1'];
activeSection.background.source = BackgroundResource.RESOURCE_PDF;
activeSection.background.position = MediaPosition.FIT_TO_MEDIA;
activeSection.background.url = "images/somepage.pdf";
