Hello FME family,

I am new in using FME and I really want to learn more about the software.

I have FFS table that I want to write in PDF. Also in the PDF output, I want to show the number of time a feature (string) occur in one of the attribute columns.

I will appreciate a tip on how to go about it because I have tried all I know but not working.

Thank you.

@daleatsafe could you please help me, Thank you


Hi @yomi,

Thanks for your question! Is your FFS table an FME Feature Store file? Have you given it a try reading it in with the FFS reader and writing out to PDF? Hitting Generate Workspace in FME Workbench is a really great place start if you haven't already. And if you have, may I ask what problems you're running into? Please feel free to share a sample dataset and your workspace so far. I believe you may want to use a Tester transformer to see if the column contains the string you're looking for.

I also wanted to mention that we have a lot of free learning resources including free training, both live online and recorded if you wish to take advantage of that.


@jovitaatsafe thank you for your response. I have used TableAdder to prepare it.
