Creating a new document from existing pages

It must be a feature in InDesign that allows you to create a new document using the selected pages in an existing document without having to remove unwanted, pages as when you create a document "save under".  And also the possibility to create existing master pages.

It is already there. At least somehow.

Create a new document of the same dimensions of the former, with a blank page. Then, in the old document, select them pages you want and in the Pages menu, choose move Pages.  You can then select the new document to move pages to and make sure to remove Pages after that moving is not selected.

  • Create a new document from a dialog box

    Our publication has ads with sizes of fixed width (columns 1 to 7) 35, 73, 110, 148, 186, 224, 262 mm wide.

    the height is 10mm to 380mm

    and I use a simple script to create

    Ads size 200 x 7
    myDocument var = app.documents.add ();
    {with (myDocument.documentPreferences)}
    pageHeight = "200mm";
    pageWidth = "262mm;
    pageOrientation = PageOrientation.landscape;
    pagesPerDocument = 1;
    }

    The problem is that I need an individual script for each size. So 1 script would be better, but I'm struggling with the user dialog boxes

    Anyone know or have an old script that I can look at to get a better understanding of how to write my own.

    My final goal is to have a dialog box that requires 2 things

    Height = user enters any value

    width = 7 only predefined choices (radio buttons)

    Javascript using Idesign CS3 PC

    Here's your script with radio buttons:

    var UIresult = myDisplayDialog();
    // Ads size 200x7
    if (UIresult.rb[0]){createDocument("35", UIresult.docHeight);}
    if (UIresult.rb[1]){createDocument("73", UIresult.docHeight);}
    if (UIresult.rb[2]){createDocument("110", UIresult.docHeight);}
    if (UIresult.rb[3]){createDocument("148", UIresult.docHeight);}

  • Create new document from template LINK PROBLEM

    When I create a new document from a template, Dreamweaver laps all my links in links I just created the. For example, a link that was originally... /... /.. / style. CSS becomes file:///C|/Program%20Files/Apache%20Group/Apache2/style.css. I have already read the technical note on the 8.02 update and goes to the management of the site and choose not to re - write the document relative paths. I tried to uncheck the box and check it and the links still get converted into local links. I went to Edit/Preferences and tried to change the choice of links updated when files moving forever and he always changes the links at the local level... Basically, I've tried everything and I posted this same question on DevShed, and nobody could help me. There, someone can help me so that I can use my templates? I would appreciate because right about now, I'm ready to pack in there and go and live in Alaska.
    Thank you!
    Jennifer

    > They are not correct, the links in the template are now as follows:
    >
    >
    > This is a link to the style sheet.

    Then, open the model.
    Correct the links so that they work IN the model.

    with the model open-
    DW menu--> file--> check--> check links Page

    Attach each link in the results panel using 'find a file '.
    button and a relative path to the file related.

    they should all change so that the paths begin with a prefix

    .. / which means a record level up

    Once the paths are correct IN the model, dw will manage the paths
    correctly in the pages of the child.

    Once the paths are correct IN the model, you will not see
    .. And the modules of the paths in the file of the child.

  • InDesign CC closes unexpectedly when you create the new document

    Hi, my CC Indesign closes unexpectedly whenever I try to create a new document.

    Also, it closes when I use the plugin Blurb Indesign, to create the new document or for download from my books - during the pre-flight, she leaves.

    I've updated to CC2015. I also re-installed the plugin blurb. These two measures do not seem to work.

    • The InDesign file in the cache folder, delete.
    • In the preferences/Adobe InDesign / Version 11.0/en_US (or any language folder you see there), locate the InDesign Defaults file and place it on your desktop (this way you can always copy it back if necessary). If there is a file, InDesign SavedData offers also the office.
    • Restart InDesign after doing that, fingers crossed it will launch.
    • If you are satisfied with the result and don't need your InDesign preferences previous folder (InDesign Defaults), then delete the two files to the desktop computer. I usually keep a copy of them just in case ;-) But 99% of the time that I do not put them back, as clearing caches and prefs seems very often cure the problems.

  • How and where to use Java script to create a new button in the page of detail of the object

    Hi all

    I want to create "New/Add button" in the page of detail of the object. If I'm not mistaken I need to use the java script for this, but could you please let me know how and where to use Java script to create a new button in the page of detail of the CRMOD object.

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards
    Manish

    Any related object on the details of the page should have an 'Add' or 'New' or the two default buttons - it of a vanilla feature and will do the required action.

    If you want to change this behavior and do something delicate you will potentially have to to go for javascript. You must add the javascript code in a web custom tab on this object.

    Admin--> Application Customization--> Contact--> Applet Web Contact

    Now add your javascript in the code box, after selecting the type = HTML for this web applet, expose this web applet on the Contact details page layout and your javascript will be called every time this page is loaded.

    Check this document online to see how javascript can be integrated into the CRM on demand http://helponmyproject.com/TTOCOD/
