Hi, First of all, declare the type of the data var. Inspite JS is loosely typed, data type var is not defined yet when you first try to add string to it. That's why you get the undefined. Secondly, I usually add the carriage return at end of the loop with a condition based on the increment value. See the code... Bye, Loic PS: Do you know that this kind of code has already been...

Script to rename Link Info Names
Published (2009-11-27 12:29:00)
Victor, The conversion program totally corrupted links in your document: myLink.filePath is just empty string, myLink.name is what should have been myLink.filePath (This is info from ESTK). Here is a new version of the script -- it relinks to files located in NewLinks folder on the Desktop. Change this line var myNewPath =? "~/Desktop/NewLinks/" + myName; to location of your links. Warning -- I...

Robin, you're right for a single ad. Note though that we're talking about the special case "offline fallback". The further benefit of InDesign is that you flow the whole collection into a single story and place that into the editorial system or pass it on to whatever person handles ad layout. And there a single stream of lines and paragraphs should still have an advantage over 10,000 inline graphics....

Published (2009-11-26 15:46:00)
Well you can get the dimensions of the first page of a PDF using the shell command mdls. So something like: do shell script "mdls -name kMDItemPageHeight -name kMDItemPageWidth "& quoted form of POSIX path of theFile and then parse the result. But I'm not sure it's going to be worth the extra effort.

The script even locks up InDesign ... My guess is that your problem is related to the "modal" nature of the dialogs, that means users are locked out from clicking outside until the dialog is dismissed. As you found out, this only works once. Can you eventually replace both "dialog" arguments with "palette" or "window" ? That way it works in ESTK, InDesign should behave the same way....

I would have expected that such a feature would be easy to automate. However, the digital edition export is not built like most of the rest of InDesign, which has generally been created in C++, with careful attention to expose virtually all features to automation (hence the existence of this forum). Instead, the functionality for digital edition export is realized via (compiled) scripts, i...

Hi David, That error indicates that there is an error in the script in myString which the script you're running has assembled (from the information in your customized . txt file). Can you tell if any of your searches were executed? That would give a clue as to how far the script progressed before hitting the error. Alternatively, post your .txt file here and let us see if we can ...
