I am new to VBA coding, and I have to automate the creation of different charts of 10+ tables of data. The chart design has to be completely the same as it was when it was done manually.
While I did try to use record macros to create the exact type of chart I need for each table, it doesn't generate the same results. Tweaking the code also takes ages for each chart individually.
While saving the wanted chart types as templates does do the trick for only one user, is it possible to somehow save them as templates in the workbook that is being used, so that the code doesn't break when it is sent to other colleagues to update the charts by adding new data?
I am trying to laser cut multiple signs, and I need to combine PDFs into a single PDF for import into AutoCAD. The signs are all the same shape, but I need to populate the different text/image for each in the frame.
I have experience with python, and I am open to learning a new tool/software to get this done in the easiest manner possible. I would love any guidance or advice on this project.
Here is a very basic picture of how I would like the final PDF to be.
The PDF toolkit (pdftk) can merge PDFs and change pagination and/or put multiple pages onto a single page.

Is there a way to export images to XML from SSRS?
Images column invisible when I open XML file via excel.
When export my report to excel directly no problem i can see the images.
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
You can't do this because the XML renderer is a data renderer that writes to a text file, much like the CSV renderer. That means that it doesn't attempt to export certain formatting and visual elements. Excel won't ever be able to load them because they weren't saved in the file in the first place. Just as if you were loading an exported CSV.
The Excel renderer, on the other hand, is a layout renderer which attempts to preserve those visual elements. Sometimes at the cost of making the data more difficult to work with.
Per the MDSN reference, https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd283112.aspx:
The XML rendering extension returns a paginated report in XML format. The schema for the report XML is specific to the report, and contains data only. Layout information is not rendered and pagination is not maintained by the XML rendering extension.
And https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd255234.aspx:
The Excel renderer is primarily a layout renderer. Its goal is to replicate the layout of the rendered report as closely as possibly in an Excel worksheet and consequently cells might be merged in the worksheet to preserve the report layout.
XML files themselves are text-based and rarely contain images. Even with image data stored as Base64, that would not achieve the result of having a column display images when opening in Excel.
One area where XMLs were used to store image data were the 2003 XML Office document formats, which stored them in a <pkg:binaryData>element. There's a chance you could generate such a file using an XLST transformation and a lot of work. But that is likely beyond the scope of your question, and at that point you would be better served just using the Excel renderer.
Is there a way to include/wrap PDF data generated from a ColdFusion template inside another ColdFusion template, or a cfdocument tag?
I'm working with a system that has generates lots of different reports, some are generated from .CFR templates, others are created by cfdocument/cfdocumentitem tags with HTML inside.
What I need to do is to add a header and a footer to every report, which should look the same everywhere.
My first idea was to create the header+footer as a separate .pdf file, adjust the scale/margins on the existing reports, and then use a DDX and a PageOverlay to merge the report with the header+footer file. However this does not work since ColdFusion does not support PageOverlay.
My second idea was to create a header and footer in HTML, then paste together header+content+footer. This works on the reports that are created from HTML but not on the ones that are created from .CFR templates, because I can't figure out a way to combine HTML code and generated PDF data in the same report. Rewriting all the reports as HTML is not an option.
Any ideas?
Which version of CF are you working with? You can now add header and footer to a PDF using CFPDF with addheader/addfooter attribute.

You could use ColdFusion Report Builder tool itself to generate the above using sub-reporting concept. When you say
Also the ColdFusion Report Builder tool helps to set common Header and Footer.
I think the Report Builder standard would be top down (Label & Values). Because it has a set bands for Report Header, Page Header, Column Header, Column Detail, Report Footer.
