Copies a source page and inserts it into a document after specified page index. Defined on a document level.

This function represents a simplified routine of manually copying & pasting a single page via page manager in Fluix iOS app (available since app v. 2.36).

Arguments:

• nSourcePage – (required) the zero-based index of the page to copy
• nPage – (required) the zero-based index of the page after which the copied page is inserted (-1 means before the first page)

Return Value: The function returns boolean result of the operation

Side effect: Function may display alerts using standard app.alert() PDF JavaScript method (NOTE: The function fails silently in case invalid page indices are passed as arguments)

4. Workflow JS API

app.fluixUser

This property can be used to pre-fill/get User full name, User Group(s) and Company name

The property app.fluixUser contains the following keys:

1. fullName — user full name in Fluix
2. companyName — company name in Fluix
3. groups — the array of groups (strings)

This is a special function fluixShouldSubmit(submitRuleName) which should be defined on a document level.

Fluix calls this function upon document submit on device of User App (e.g. to validate the fields, user groups, etc.)

Argument: The only function argument is a string, the name of submit rule from admin portal

Return Value: The function should return boolean true when submit is allowed or false if not.

Side effect: Function may display alerts using standard app.alert() PDF JavaScript method. Alerts may contain Yes / No buttons that could allow PDF author to display non-fatal warning.
