Hello,

I need to copy files in PDF format from an office location to a web server, so that they are accessible in a mapping application.

Each file corresponds to a point feature in a database table. Each entity has a serial number that corresponds to the name of the PDF file.

I have built with FME the path and the name of each PDF file but I don't know how to go about copying it. I plugged a CopyWriter into the output of my processing but I can't seem to use it with an attribute-based destination. Can you help me, please? Thanks

You have to create the filecopy attributes to make this work. See the documentation.
