I have a Shutdown Python Script wich run a system terminal command.
In this command I have to write the name of different pdf files. My problem is that the names are written directly in the command. I prefer to write the name of a variable wich refers to a file name.
Is that possible in the shutdown Python script?
I also find the transformer SystemCaller. Maybe it's a better idea. But, my script have to be run à the very end of the project.
Do you have any advice please?

Hi @slerendu, the "os.system" method may be what you are looking for. See here: os.system

But if I run the cmd_04, the log tells me :
Error: Unable to find file.
Error: Failed to open PDF file:
myOrigFileWhat do you think?

pdftk_cmd_04 = "pdftk %s result\83*.pdf cat output newfile2.pdf" % myOrigFile

Since your python script looks like sending this command is its only job you can also think about using the system caller transformer. Before FME2016 you had no chance to write something out and manipulate the results afterwards without using python shutdown scripts. In FME 2016 you can write files with the new feature writer transformer and manipulate them afterwards with e.g. the system caller.

... but your user avatar tells me that you like to use python ;)
