How to combine files from the book in a single file-IND

Hello

I'm doing an InDesign file from the files in a book.

I know the option book export to PDF, but I want is something like:

Add bookfile pages 1 to a new document.

then add the pages of bookfile 2 in this new document (at the end)

then add bookfile pages 3 to this new document (at the end)

until all pages of all bookfiles are combined into a single document.

I will not place the pages (which makes them any pages and images).

Is this possible? [Windows - Javascript platform]

Is what I figured (as a non-programmer)

to open the bookfile

(var app.open(File("/c/Bookname.indb = myDocument"), false);

use a counter for the number of bookfiles in the book

for (i = 0; i < myDocument.bookContents.count (); i ++)

{

to retrieve the name of the bookfile

var myINDFile = myDocument.bookContents.item (i) .fullName;

}

Theres a move command under menu panels Pages Pages. With it you can move pages also between documents... may be you can use programmatically too? In the InDesign Scripting forum guys know better, although some of them reads this forum too...

  • How to merge data from the table with a single line

    Hello

    I have three tables subscription_type, the address and the person. Here are the details of the table

    Person Subscription_type Address                                           

    Person_Id AdressType_id Address_id

    Person_name Description Address_type_id

    Person_id

    Address details


    There are three types of different address - home, postal and previous.

    Each person can have these three different addresses.

    I want to create a view that displays all addresses of three of each person in the table of the person in a single line.

    Any help please

    In your example, there are 2 rows of columns street1, TOWN, SUBURB etc for a single person. To convert this into a single line, with the new columns we could simply use CASES or DECODE in the select as the SQL below. To understand why consolidation function THAT MAX is used - remove the MAX and GROUP BY in SQL keyword and try.

    Select full_name

    , max (case when description = "Home" then end street1) Home_Street

    , max (case when description = "Home" then end suburb) home_suburb

    , max (case when description = end of the "Home" then City) home_city

    , max (case when description = "Home" then postal code end) home_postcode

    , max (case when description = "Home" then end state_name) home_state

    , max (case when description = 'Postal' then end street1) Postal_Street

    , max (case when description = 'Postal' and then end of suburb) Postal_suburb

    , max (case when description = 'Postal' then the city) Postal_city

    , max (case when description = 'Postal' and then end of CP) Postal_postcode

    , max (case when description = 'Postal' then state_name end) Postal_state

    , max (case when description = "Back" then end street1) Prev_Street

    , max (case when description = "Back" then end suburb) Prev_suburb

    , max (case when description = "Back" then city end) Prev_city

    , max (case when description = "Back" then postal code end) Prev_postcode

    address a

    S State

    No p

    Subscription_type att

    where a.person_id = p.person_id

    and a.state_id = s.state_id

    and a.address_type_id = att.address_type_id

  • How to extract information from the ovf file from a file of eggs by programming?

    How to extract information from the ovf file from a file of eggs by programming?

    Hello

    Please provide details:

    -On what OS you are programming (Linux, Windows,...)?

    -What programming or scripting language do you use?

    An EGG file is just a tarball of hard, .ovf and .mf files. The .ovf file is always the first. For example, on a Unix like operating system, this should be easy.

    For Windows, there are several options available to manage programmatically the tarballs. See for example http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/470999/tarlib-Windows-TAR-Library.

    And the ovf itself file is in XML format. For handling XML files are libraries available for literally every OS and programming language.

    Google is your friend.

    I can't run Setup from my cd/dvd rom, there is no such option in the BIOS Setup. How can I boot from the cD or DVD?
    Please, help me!

    Hello

    You are not able to boot from the CD/DVD drive?
    If you are unable to change the boot order in the BIOS, I would advise you by pressing the F12 key immediately after starting the laptop.
    A start menu should appear, then you should be able to choose the reader of CD/DVD (ODD).

    You can also try clicking on the C instead of the F12 button. The C button the STRANGE start.

    Check this back and forth!

    Good luck
