Move pages between documents without synchronization with master?

I want to combine two indesign files using 'move page', but it synchronizes them with the captain in the new document. I released most of the objects on the master pages, but I like to keep editable parts so making them in empty master pages until synchronization is not an option. Is there a way?

I would rename the master in one of the docs. When you move pages, pages from masters of the same name will use the master page of the destination file, but if they are based on different names of masters the missing master page will be added to the destination. If you do this there is no need to override anything.

    ===================================================

    From a post by Rehman F.

    Here are the steps to change the ownership and permissions of files and folders:

    1. right click on the file or folder, click Properties, and then click the Security tab.

    2. click on advanced and then click the owner tab.

    3. click on edit and then do one of the following:

    ·    To change the owner to a user or group that is not listed, click other users and groups, and in the box type
    the object name to select (examples), type the name of the user or group, and then click OK.

    ·    To change the owner to a user or a group is listed in the change owner to box, click the new owner.

    4. If you want to take ownership of the contents of the folder, select the replace the owner of sub containers and objects check box.

    5. click OK and then click Yes when you receive the following message is displayed:

    You are not allowed to read the contents of directory folder name. You want to replace the directory
    permissions with permissions granting you full control?

    All permissions will be replaced if you click Yes.

    Note folder_name is the name of the folder you want to take charge.

    6. click on OK and then reapply the permissions and security settings that you want for the folder and its contents.

    Additional considerations

    7· An administrator can take ownership of any file on the computer.

    8· Affecting the ownership of a file or a folder might require that raise you your permissions using user access control

  • Copy master pages between documents.

    I'm carrying a book with chapters 36 and I formatted my template and finished a chapter.  Chapter 2 is a new document and I want to carry on A master to each successive.  I think there must be a way to do it, but nothing I've tried works.  I use Windows 7 and InDesign 5.5, version 7.5.

    Make a blank template with your master pages and styles file, then use it to make the chapter files.

  • bind the pages between documents (is it possible?) CS6

    I acquired the task at my new job of recasting of the operators manuals and parts lists. I know a little bit in indesign, we can say more than the average. (I learn everyday more and more). But on my question as stated above. Is this possible?

    I made models for the manuals I've created, but I always find myself change one aspect of design on a page or two and trying to keep everything looking nice and uniform, that I have to open each and make the same changes to match. Although I get manuals more again, opening and changes to all these documents Gets a little intimidating and monotonous. Now I like say my back cover page for example who don't exchange any document for the document, is there a way to link it to all the other blankets back so that if I change something on a that it changes all the back covers all related documents?

    Also I can be me going but I have a few pages where all that is deferred like a few words (I like to consider as variables) such as the name of the product manual to address. If its possible to link the pages it would be possible to say ID to "ignore" a piece of text say inbetween two sets of characters? IE: "it's the best" (variable) "in the world".

    I can just dream but if theres a function or tool that everyone knows (or even a script, a person brought) please feel free to share it with me!

    Thanks for your time!

    Well, for your No. 2 question, Yes, there are a text variables in InDesign that do exactly what you ask. Type menu->-> set text Variables.

    For question No. 1: you can place an InDesign document to another as an image, so if you have identical pages, you can place this way. If you need text content are identical, but the presentation format for change, I would say now your text in Word or Google Docs and looking in WordFlow or DocsFlow from Em Software. Finally, the more complicated, less use-able is to include your documents in a book file to use Sync Master Pages causes changes in a master page in waterfall to your other files.

    You can get a lot fancier with Q No 1, in the form of structured writing, content management systems, and so on, but I think that place the InDesign files in other InDesign files pretty much exactly what you're looking for.

  • [CS 5.5] [JS] copy a graphic page between documents element

    Hi, I'm still learning script and am struggling with what is probably a simple problem to someone more knowledgeable. The task is to copy the text & chart of a few pages of a document from one to the other based on a similar model. The block of text and graphic blocks are named. I was able to get the part of the text, but I'm stuck on how to address them - stick in a graphic block.

    At this point, I got the graph to copy, but it does not quite work because the duplicate method allows only a table of 2 units, fattening, Page or layer target and source document positions are slightly different, and copy the chart only leaves out necessary style of the frame. I really want to stick it in the page element, but differs from the method for duplication of text. Tips to approach this? Should I instead to select the graphic and paste it into the new document? How I would achieve the equivalent of sticking in there?

    A snippet of my code so far:

    var docPages = docRef.pages.everyItem().getElements();
    var cemwpsP1 = 3;
    var newWPS = createWPS(templatePath, wpsTemplateName, wpsFileName, wpsSaveFolder);
    var graphsRE = new RegExp (/graph/i);
    var textsRE = new RegExp (/body|chart/i);
    
    var srcPage = docPages[cemwpsP1];
    var wpsPage = newWPS.pages[0];
    for (i = srcPage.pageItems.length -1; i >=0; i--) {
     var pi = srcPage.pageItems[i];
     if ( pi.name.match(textsRE) ) {
     // copy the text element
     pi.texts[0].duplicate(LocationOptions.AT_BEGINNING, wpsPage.pageItems.itemByName(pi.name)); 
     }
     if ( pi.name.match(graphsRE) ) {
     // it's a graphic element
     // still stumped here! only copies to to the same coordinates on the new page...
     pi.allGraphics.duplicate(wpsPage);
     }
    }
    
    

    OK, if anyone is interested, I solved it by copying the graphic dimensions of empty graphic images of the model, and then nuking replacing them with a chart double. This technique works for all elements of the page are appointed in the same way on the source and target pages.

    // step through page items on each page, checking item name matches as set in graphsRE & textsRE above & moving over to the new pages
    var srcPage = docPages[cemwpsP1];
    var wpsPage = newWPS.pages[0];
    for (i = srcPage.pageItems.length -1; i >=0; i--) {
        var pi = srcPage.pageItems[i];
        if ( pi.name.match(textsRE) ) {
            // it's a textual element, either ta.wpsFrameName or ta.wpsChartFrameName
            pi.texts[0].duplicate(LocationOptions.AT_BEGINNING, wpsPage.pageItems.itemByName(pi.name));
        }
        if ( pi.name.match(graphsRE) ) {
            // it's a graphic element, and should only contain one graphic
            // since ID doesn't allow copying into frames (or I never found how)
            // get its matching info from the wps template
            wpsBounds = wpsPage.pageItems.itemByName(pi.name).geometricBounds;
            wpsObjStyle = wpsPage.pageItems.itemByName(pi.name).appliedObjectStyle;
            // kill the original & duplicate the graphic to wps
            wpsPage.pageItems.itemByName(pi.name).remove();
            pi.allGraphics[0].duplicate(wpsPage);
            // get a reference to the newly placed graphic; it'll be the only nameless one, as they are all named on the template
            for (g = wpsPage.pageItems.length -1; g >=0; g--) {
                if ( wpsPage.pageItems[g].name == "" ) {
                    gfc = wpsPage.pageItems[g];
                }
            }
            // name, size and style
            gfc.name = pi.name;

  • Current width of the page (no Document) and height with JSX

    Hello

    I am trying to create a script that saves all pages in the document and adds the name of its width and its height.

    So far, I managed to get the dimensions of the document to help:

    app.activeDocument.pages.documentPreferences.pageWidth;

    app.activeDocument.pages.documentPreferences.pageHeight;

    It's ok when all pages in the document have the same dimensions (Document preferences).

    However, when I use custom pages that does not work.

    I tried the code below, but does not work either.


    for (i = 0; i < nb; i ++)

    {

    app.activeDocument.pages [i].documentPreferences.pageWidth;

    app.activeDocument.pages [i].documentPreferences.pageHeight;

    }

    I did some research and I don't seem to find all the information about the dimensions of the custom pages.

    Can you please help with that?

    Thanks in advance,

  • How can I move pages from one document to the other without merger of paragraph styles?

    I want to create a singular indesign file of 2 separate documents, which allows me to make an interactive PDF of it.

    However, when you move pages from one to the other, it seems that when each document has a paragraph style with the same name, they merge. The problem is that text is then adjusted if the styles do not match completely.

    Is there a way to merge the documents without any formatting changes?

    Create a Style group in each document and move all styles in this file. Give each document a different name. Do it with all kinds of styles: paragraph, character, objects, tables and Cell Styles. Then you can sort them later in the merged document what you do with these styles.

    How to remove "Note Box" in document Adobe Framemaker 9 (master/body page page)?

    Praveen,

    Your screenshot, it looks like the Note box is part of the design of the Master Page to the pages right and left. Open the master page view (view > Master Pages). Then ctrl-click on the Notes box. You will see little black squares appear at the corners and the middle of the Notes box points when he was selected. Now remove it. You can do the same for the adjacent, if necessary text block. Adjust the height of the main text block and the location of the rule of separation as needed.

    To insert an icon online as you show, you need us one anchored frame the value 'to insert Point ' where you need to place the icon. Use the 'Distance above the base' parameter to move the anchored frame so that the icon will be centered or aligned with the line of text (use a negative value to move the image down). Then import the graphic into the anchored frame and size according to the needs. You can enable the 'fixed' for paratag line spacing setting to avoid Visual gaps around the lines with icons.

    Tip: create and tweak the necessary icons in a text essay on your pages of reference frame. You can then copy & paste according to your needs.

  • How to move pages in a large PDF document?

    Hello

    I store all documents paperlessly and now have a large file > 31 K pages. How can I move page in the document without drag / move, for example I want to move pages 213-389 for after page 9 255... Drag - move simply does not work. I would choose the pages to thumbnails select cut, go to the new location and select Paste.

    Thank you.

    Hi Six,.

    There is no option to copy / paste in the pane thumbnails page.

    However, I would recommend you to extract pages (delete them from the original pdf) and then you can scroll to the location of the page where you want to insert, re - now insert the pages after this place.

    Kind regards

    Hi Cognet,

    I had a look at your snippet and it leaves a little room for improvement.

    It is a different approach. The n is right there to see how many times the spreads are being told to move.

    I put code snippets in a doScripts to make it easier to compare.

    In the case below your code snippet is "moving" the "spreads" 8 times, and this is true even if you rerun the code snippet.

    It should only move 2 pages.
