  Hello

  Runing a code with your doc that you note possible occurrences (groups, the elements anchored, locked, etc items)

  This presupposes to exclude grouped and docked:

  capset ();
  
  function capset()
  {
  var
    mDoc = app.activeDocument,
    // anchored or grouped items excluded
    myGraphics = mDoc.splineItems.everyItem().getElements(),
    picContainer, gb, myCaption;
  while(picContainer = myGraphics.pop() )
  {
    // exclude empty frames
    if (!picContainer.graphics.length) continue;
    gb= picContainer.geometricBounds;
    // add a frame to to picture's parent, which is a Page
    myCaption = picContainer.parent.textFrames.add ();
    // set position and size of the caption
    myCaption.geometricBounds = [gb[2], gb[1], gb[2]+3, gb[3]];
    // add placeholder contents
    myCaption.contents = "Caption";
    mDoc.groups.add ([picContainer, myCaption]);
    }
  }

• Select all content in the indesign document to attach the script

  I have a script that does something useful for my document. But he always need chose the part of the document, as

  If (app.selection.length > 0)...

  Could you ask me how to select all the pages in the indesign document. I have a lot of pages. And I have a lot of files .indd
  I tried to use app.activeDocument.pages.item (0) .allPageItems; but it is not the effect of page = ( )

  Maybe I can use loop 'for', but perhaps there is a function of selection of all the document, is not only one page

  Thank you

  Of course:

  myPages = app.activeDocument.pages.everyItem () .getElements (); Table of references to the pages of the document

  for (var k = myPages.length - 1; k > = 0; k-) {}

  myPages [k] .allPageItems = myItems;

  for (var j = myItems.length - 1; j > = 0; j-) {}

  processItem (myItems [j]);

  }

  }

  It treats everything from BACK to front, which is usually the security approach and is potentially a bit faster that the other direction.

  You must always write the processItem function.

• CS6 Crash inDesign on placing a file on the indesign document, Crash report is attached.

  Hello

  InDesign CS 6 works very well for Mac mini in MacBookPro it always crash on placing a file on the InDesign Document.

  Crash report: http://pastebin.com/fUPiYd0c

  I tried:

  (1) to uninstall and reinstall CS 6

  (2) using different accounts including admin

  Troubleshooting 3) as following:

  ' a) Trash preferences (cmd-opt-shift-control keys for InDesign starting).

  Corrupt preferences (see above), or maybe the permissions on the folders that contain the preferences are such that InDesign cannot write correctly for them. (it sometimes happen).

  (b) by deleting sub folders: before you remove the sub directories/files, please make a backup (just to the trunk).  Exit design and try to delete the following files/directories (InDesign recreates them initially to the top):

  ~/Library/application support/Adobe/Adobe InDesign CS5.5

  InDesign ~/library/caches/Adobe

  ~/Library/Caches/com.Adobe.InDesign

  InDesign ~/Library/preferences/Adobe

  ~/Library/preferences/com.Adobe.InDesign.plist

  ~/Library/preferences/com.Adobe.InDesign.plist.lockfile

  ~/Library/saved application State/com.adobe.InDesign.savedState

  Note: The user library directory hides under MacPro/Lion. You can get there in the Finder by pressing Option and then go to the menu (other ways are too thin).

  Please let me know if I'm missing something.

  Thanks in advance,

• link to the word document

  Hi guys,.
  
  Can someone give me a step by step guide how to create a link to a word document. I want to create a link in a report which will link to the word document based on the value of the link... I have a list of server names, the name of each server has a server specification "word document" I want to make a link to the specific document depending on what the name of the server is in the report...
  
  
  Thanks in advance
  
  Stefan

  This can be done using the data in the report - will be assessed for each line:
  

  
  
  select case when col1 = 'server1'
  
  then col4
  
  whencol1 = 'server2'
  
  then col5
  
  else col6
  
  end doc_link
  
  from my_table
  
  

  There is a link to the CASE statement in the Oracle documentation. Our doc can be a little confusing, but it would be good for you to get a better understanding of sql tutorials intro and obes.

• How to upgrade all PSD files in the Indesign document as a JPEG?

  Hello

  I'm a wedding photographer who uses Indesign CS5 to create albums. All my photos are initially PSDs in the album. At the end of the album, I would convert PSD files in JPEG format and then be updated in InDesign Album. How can I do this?

  This would smoke less on the size of the file and I will always have the option to edit the album in the future.

  Thanking you in advance for your time and understanding.

  Kind regards

  Phil

  You can batch convert them in Photoshop and save them to a new folder. As long as the file names are the same, you can connect them easily using the repeat order for file in the links Panel. There is a choice there be reprinted under the same name with a new extension.

  But my $0.02 worth is that it won't do a thing for the size of the InDesign file and you will need to store the PSD in any case... which means this actually will increase the amount of storage space you need.

• Export multiple files .ase of the indesign document

  Hello

  I have an indesign document that has approximately 1 000 palettes of colors on it.

  There are 5 colors in each color scheme and each pallet is made using 5 boxes of color (see attached template).

  I need to export each of these palettes of colors as indivdual .ase files.

  The only way I can do now is to copy and paste a range in a blank indesign document so I can identify the 5 colors used in the chart, select these 5 colors and then export it as an .ase file.

  Is there a way faster and more reasonable to do?

  Best regards, Tim

  Sorry, but I can't help you there. I would have found a different way from the outset. 5000 samples in one document is not exactly what I would call effective.

  You can try to copy and paste objects into an empty file and then export from there.

• The size of the InDesign document serious error whenever I try to change.

  Hello world.

  So this guard that happens every time I try to change the size of the document (after the strike in the new size and press OK).

  I don't know what is happening, and it's stressing out me!

  Someone met with this error message?

  It wasn't a new document. A document existing, just try to change the size.

  In any case, it's working now. Copied and pasted everything in the new document. Suspect that the original file may be damaged.

• Refreshing sampling error in the indesign document

  Hello

  I have this strange error that refreshes the frame about every 10 seconds.

  When I select a font for example it refreshes until I can select a. Even with all of the other tools.

  I disabled the "preflight document", but which is not solve it.

  It occurs only with a particular document.

  Fortunately not with all documents, so there must be some sort of setting or perhaps even a police...

  I hope someone has some advice to know where to look to get rid of this problem.

  T.i.a.

• I want to remove hard disk images, how to say that they are linked to the InDesign files?

  Is there a way that I can know if the image is linked to a any InDesign file? I have thousand .indd files on my hard drive, if I open one by one and see the links Panel, it would take me ages...

  You could get someone to write a script that would open all and pack them to another drive. Then, just wipe old.

• Fill the InDesign document with external data?

  Hi all, I hope that I ask this question in the correct forum. I'm assuming that it is a problem of script, but if not, I apologize. Anyway - wonder if this is possible and, if so, if someone could point me in the general direction of more information:

  My company occasionally asked to produce directories of employee containing information (photos, contact information, education information, etc.) on different segments of the population closes - for example, a directory can include all women of color, we can include everyone in the Los Angeles Office, etc.. I would like to find a way to 'model' it in InDesign so that the relevant info can circulate in the external data source document - for example, database SQL of the HR or perhaps a spreadsheet generated from this database. I know that we are currently able to do something similar by using Word, but the final product looks like crap.

  I don't know what that would be even called in InDesign, so any information will be greatly appreciated. I use the CS5 version. Thank you!

  I could do this by using the data merge feature. It is similar to the functionality of fusion and mail merge in word. There is a great video of how it works here: http://www.theindesigner.com/blog/episode-43-data-merge-video

  There are more complex ways using XML or the third party plug-ins, but I would try this method first.
