• Right-aligned numbers in lists numbered in the paragraph styles

  Is it possible (in InDesign 5.5) to create a numbered list in a paragraph style that makes the numbers right aligned, in order to align a two-digit number to the right, the space between the number and the text being equal whether a number of one or two digits? I can do it manually with two tabs, but the bullets & dialogue of numbering in paragraph Options of Style only allows for the position of a tab. It would be useful to be able to automate this type of numbering.

• Where is the paragraph style tools in Indesign CC2014?

  Hello! I just started to use IDs through creative cloud on a new computer (using CC CS6 for two years), and the installer gave me rather than CS6 CC2014. So it is a question only on CC2014.

  Where is the window paragraph styles? Specifically, how can I edit, create and organize the paragraph styles, and how do I get a window up on the main screen with all stated styles? All these things were easy to find in CS6, but I can't find them in CC2014. The only thing I get (and with a bit of customization). is a drop-down list on the main toolbar, which allows me to choose from among the existing options on an existing document.

  There is no option of paragraph Windows Styles > Styles.

  There is no option under Type of paragraph Styles.

  The only paragraph window that appears is designed for text editing as you go along, don't not to apply styles.

  Using the options all point me back them to the entrance for CS6 and tell me to go to Type > paragraph Styles (which does not exist).

  I can't get a window up on the main screen to instantly apply styles in a list. I only get this drop, which has no other options.

  Can someone tell me some updated guidance or explain where all paragraph options are and how do I use them? If not, can I go back to CS6? It was easy and intuitive on the front, and now it's not...

  Thank you!

  Nothing has changed on the styles. It's exactly the same thing as CS6. Perhaps you need to restore your preferences.

• Using the numbering of the paragraph.

  Hi guys

  Just wondering if there is a way in the application of the numbering in the paragraph styles to choose a format that does not have a full stop after the number

  That is to say current the number reads

  1. say hello

  2. say goodbye

  3 Hello again

  I would just have

  1. say hello

  2 Say goodbye

  3 Hello again

  Thanks for your thoughts

  Steve

  Dialogue to open paragraph style options.

  Choose Bullets and numbering of category.

  Assume that the list type is "Numbers".

  In "Style of numbering."

  in the field "number:

  remove the full stop character.

  original value: "^ #.» ^ t »

  value change: "^ #^ t.

• List of paragraph styles and formatting

  Does anyone know of a script that will create a list of paragraph styles in a document and all the specifications of formatting to the paragraph styles? If not, is there a third-party utility available that would list for example?

  I'm looking for something for InDesign that has a similar function to the plug-in for Adobe FrameMaker, called paragraph tools, manufactured by Silicon Prairie Software.

  Text Styles journalist Dave Saunders does just that:

  He said he was for CS2, but it works at least in CS3.

• error: application of fonts on the paragraph style

  Hi all

  I am facing a problem while applying fonts on the paragraph style. Below are my code.

  If (myDoc.paragraphStyles [a].appliedFont.name == "Helvetica Neue Light")

  {

  myDoc.paragraphStyles [a] .appliedFont = "Helvetica Neue LT Std";

  " myDoc.paragraphStyles [a] .fontStyle = ' Light 45."

  }

  The error is "police family is not available." asked but the fonts installed correctly and works well even if I do a request manually.
  If I apply the Light "Helvetica Neue Std 45" police anywhere in my (manual) document only once and run the script, and then his job very well.
  Where is problem?
  Any suggestion.
  Thank you
  Shonky

  The problem is, you can not apply "" Helvetica Neue LT Std"because you do not have a 'Light' in this font style; and you can't apply the style

  'light 45' first because you do not have a "Helvetica Neue 45 Light!

  That's what they call a classic "Catch 22" situation. Fortunately, there's another way: you can apply two fonts and style in a single command:

  app.activeDocument.paragraphStyles [2] .appliedFont = 'universe LT\t45 Light ';.

  (Note the font character and style tab inbetween family).

  Very irritating, it's your way to work when applied to the text, instead of a paragraph style. for a moment, you will get a pink text in the 'police' [Helvetica Neue 45 Light], and when you apply just the style, all is well again.

• Problem with the paragraph style "paragraph NET."

  I have a paragraph style with a paragraph in her net. There is something that I don't know what to do about it.

  When I hit 'back' to move a paragraph with this style, it leaves a rule in its wake. Here is a screenshot:

  

  The title "Introduction" has a paragraph with a net of applied paragraph style. I put the cursor just before the word 'Introduction', press return, and it leaves a line in the previous line. Weird huh?

  Don't use not paragraph refers ALWAYS to put in place a space between paragraphs. Use the space before or after the space in the paragraph in withdrawal and spacing Style.

  If it's the beginning of a block of text and you want it to appear lower in the frame adjust them the object > text frame Options and give him a Medallion from the top. OR this way http://indesignsecrets.com/push-down-the-first-line-of-text.php

  The line of paragraph appears is because when you press back the paragraph he the same paragraph style, ergo the same paragraph style. To get rid of it, change the paragraph style from the paragraph above to something else.

  But you shouldn't really use back to add a space between paragraphs. Space before and after the space are much more effective.

• created in Chapter 1 paragraph styles cannot be chosen for the other chapters

  HI. Now I have all my "paragraph styles" determined for my ebook. Thanks again for the advice saved me after that I lost so much time.

  New > book > book1

  New > doc > click

  Add > doc > Table of contents for book1 [which is the table of contents in the print version]

  Add > doc > Chapter 1

  Click table of contents to make master and select it.

  layout > toc [add paragraph styles used in chapter1] save the style as tocbook1 [deselected replace existing toc]

  Click on + to add next chapter 2 [this is now selected and I can see all the paragraph styles]

  - but when I double click to open Chapter 2

  -only ' standard paragraph + ", 'normal' 'reference text' and 'paragraph 1' style are available."

  more information:

  as I entered in each of the chapters in this book with a good table of contents (finally)

  -I can't select text > paragraph style > and see p-styles listed in Chapter1: chapterheading, chaptersubdescription, chaptersubtitle, paragraphspacing, dialogue...

  notes that can be useful with this diagnosis:

  I came across a major messup of "loading" styles p "all".  It sounded like a good idea.  It worked again but this time I just load them all rather than things deselection.  I don't have an idea of what I've done here, but

  result: all my notes were listed in the TOC navigation panel resulting in the .epub that was readable in adobe reader digital.

  what I ended up doing:

  After experimenting a ton - I was still unable to fix this problem which postponed in each table of contents that I tried to build from scratch, so I was just remove almost all "indesign books', indesigndocs that have been tocs and epub files.

  AGAIN, any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm ready to roll if you know what I mean.

  Thank you

  I don't understand what you're trying to do.

  You say that you did not have your paragraph styles in the rest of your chapters?

  They are like this:

  Book1

  Chapter 1 (this does have styles p)

  Chapter 2 (it doesn't)

  Chapter 3 (does not)

  If this is the case then you must synchronize all what you styles p.

  Do this, use in designating what chapter to take information from by clicking on the first chapter in the small box left in the book window and then click the drop down menu on the window of your book

  

  go to the stync options select styles p and c

  then book Sync, this will fill the remaining chapters with the styles that are in the first chapter.

  you will need to open each chapter separately and apply the relevant styles to the paragraphs.

• Is it possible to change the paragraph style (none)?

  Whenever I make a bulleted list or a numbered list, I get a syle of fonts that we don't use in our project.  I tried to change this style, but it is grayed out.  All other styles allow editing.  How can I change this default style (none)?  I did a search in the file help and on the forum but have not seen any results.  It's too simple or others are ok with this style.

  Thank you

  The choice is to apply other styles like I did, or simply to set your LI style, which is the way of pure HTML. The reason why I do that you cannot map the tag LI for printed documents. I have just started the list, select the style that I want and that's all. It is an extra step.

  What is behind this change is that people complained that the code should be clean and now it is the case, people are aware there is a down side.

  When no style is applied, as zero, the police will be what is defined by the browser. Try changing the default font in your browser for some obscure fonts and generates output. What you'll see is this obscure font. Now see the same output to another browser with a different default font.

  You may not modify any as Willam explained. None means that no style is applied so that applies the default value of the browser. You will see may not be in Arial, the next person may see as something else. Modify a CSS sets styles you include in this CSS. You apply the paragraph styles or you don't, as in no style is applied that in none.

  Clearer now?

• [win] [js] [cs4] find/replace the paragraph styles without losing the replacements the

  Hi guys I need some help here.

  I created a javascript script that will find and replace paragraph styles for the DOCFILE with indesign paragraph styles. everything works fine but the problem is that, when she applies paragraph styles, he loses all replacements the. I tried:
  
  changetext (false);
  
  but his does not work, this is a kind of conditional parameter that I can put in the function changetext() so that it used clear local overrides?

  Thank you.

  Horse
  

  Use findGrep() (or findText()) instead of changeText(). This returns an array of items found. Then, you can loop through the array and apply a paragraph style without erasing the replacements (the 2nd parameter must be false).

  Example:

  Main();
  
  function Main() {
      var foundItem;
      var doc = app.activeDocument;
  
      app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
  
      app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = ".+";
      app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = "Body text";
  
      var foundItems = doc.findGrep();
  
      for (var i = 0; i < foundItems.length; i++) {
          foundItem = foundItems[i];
          foundItem.applyParagraphStyle(doc.paragraphStyles.item("Body"), false);
      }
  
      app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
  }
  

• Script will not apply the paragraph style

  Hello

  I'm new to scripting in InDesign (CS3), and I'm trying to understand why the scipt below does not apply a style in the following text file? :

  < ASCII-WIN >

  < ParaStyle: Heading 1 > who are we? < ParaStyle >:

  For ease of reading, I have shortend the text file to just two lines.

  The script that I use to open and to format the text file is:

  Create a new document.

  myDocument var = app.documents.add ();

  Set the units of measure and the origin of the rule.

  myDocument.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.points;

  myDocument.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.points;

  myDocument.viewPreferences.rulerOrigin = RulerOrigin.pageOrigin;

  Get a reference to the first master spread.

  var myMasterSpread = myDocument.masterSpreads.item (0);

  Get a reference to preferences on the margins of the first page in the Master spread.

  var myMarginPreferences = myMasterSpread.pages.item (0) .marginPreferences;

  Now set up the page margins and columns.

  myMarginPreferences.left = 4;

  myMarginPreferences.top = 70;

  myMarginPreferences.right = 70;

  myMarginPreferences.bottom = 78;

  myMarginPreferences.columnCount = 2;

  myMarginPreferences.columnGutter = 14;

  The margins of page and columns for the right-hand page.

  var myMarginPreferences = myMasterSpread.pages.item (1) .marginPreferences;

  myMarginPreferences.left = 48;

  myMarginPreferences.top = 70;

  myMarginPreferences.right = 70;

  myMarginPreferences.bottom = 78;

  myMarginPreferences.columnCount = 3;

  myMarginPreferences.columnGutter = 14;

  Adding Master Page items

  var myMasterSpread = myDocument.masterSpreads.item (0);

  var myLeftPage = myMasterSpread.pages.item (0);

  var myRightPage = myMasterSpread.pages.item (1);

  var myLeftFooter = myLeftPage.textFrames.add ();

  myLeftFooter.geometricBounds = [70, 742, 728, 528];

  myLeftFooter.textFramePreferences.firstBaselineOffset = FirstBaseline.leadingOffset;

  myLeftFooter.contents = SpecialCharacters.autoPageNumber;

  myLeftFooter.parentStory.characters.item (0) .pointSize = 11;

  myLeftFooter.parentStory.characters.item (0) .leading = 14;

  var myRightFooter = myRightPage.textFrames.add ();

  myRightFooter.geometricBounds = [48, 742, 728, 542];

  myRightFooter.textFramePreferences.firstBaselineOffset = FirstBaseline.leadingOffset;

  myRightFooter.contents = SpecialCharacters.autoPageNumber;

  myRightFooter.parentStory.characters.item (0) .pointSize = 11;

  myRightFooter.parentStory.characters.item (0) .leading = 14;

  myRightFooter.parentStory.characters.item (0) .justification = Justification.rightAlign;

  Adding master text frames

  var myLeftPage = myMasterSpread.pages.item (0);

  var myRightPage = myMasterSpread.pages.item (1);

  var myLeftTextFrame = myLeftPage.textFrames.add ();

  myLeftTextFrame.geometricBounds = [70, 70, 714, 528];

  myLeftTextFrame.textFramePreferences.firstBaselineOffset = FirstBaseline.leadingOffset;

  myLeftTextFrame.textFramePreferences.textColumnCount = 3;

  myLeftTextFrame.textFramePreferences.textColumnGutter = 14;

  Add a label to make the image easier to find later.

  myLeftTextFrame.label = "BodyTextFrame";

  var myRightTextFrame = myRightPage.textFrames.add ();

  myRightTextFrame.geometricBounds = [70, 48, 714, 542];

  myRightTextFrame.textFramePreferences.firstBaselineOffset = FirstBaseline.leadingOffset;

  myRightTextFrame.textFramePreferences.textColumnCount = 3;

  myRightTextFrame.textFramePreferences.textColumnGutter = 14;

  Add a label to make the image easier to find later.

  myRightTextFrame.label = "BodyTextFrame";

  Link the two frames using the nextTextFrame property.

  myLeftTextFrame.nextTextFrame = myRightTextFrame;

  The substitution of Master Page points and adds text

  var myTextFrame = myDocument.masterSpreads.item (0).pages.item (1).textFrames.item (0) .override (myDocument.pag es.item (0));

  Add text by setting the contents of the insertion of a string.

  In JavaScript, "\r" is a return character.

  .silence myTextFrame.insertionPoints.item (0) = "dok\r";

  Adding and applying a paragraph Style

  var myParagraphStyle = myDocument.paragraphStyles.item ("title 1");

  try {}

  var myName = myParagraphStyle.name;

  }

  {} catch (MonErreur)

  //The style of paragraph don't have not exist, so create it.

  myParagraphStyle = myDocument.paragraphStyles.add ({name: 'Title 1'});

  }

  We need to create a color. Check if the color already exists.

  myColor var = myDocument.colors.item ("Green");

  try {}

  myName = myColor.name;

  }

  {} catch (MonErreur)

  //The color have not exist, so create it.

  myColor = myDocument.colors.add ({name: 'Green', model: ColorModel.process, colorValue:[100,0,100,0]});})

  }

  Now set the formatting of the paragraph style.

  myParagraphStyle.appliedFont = "Arial";

  myParagraphStyle.fontStyle = "Bold";

  myParagraphStyle.pointSize = 24;

  myParagraphStyle.spaceAfter = 24;

  myParagraphStyle.spaceBefore = 24;

  myParagraphStyle.fillColor = myDocument.colors.item ("Green");

  Apply the style to the paragraph.

  myDocument.pages.item (0).textFrames.item (0).paragraphs.item (0) .applyParagraphStyle (myParag raphStyle, true);

  You can also use:

  myDocument.pages.item (0).textFrames.item (0).paragraphs.item (0) .appliedParagraphStyle = //myParagraphStyle;

  Import a text file

  Display a standard dialog box open the file to select a text file.

  var monFichierTexte is File.openDialog ("choose a text file");.

  If you selected a text file, and if you didn't press Cancel,

  Place the file of text on the first insertion point after the title.

  If ((monFichierTexte! = "") & & (monFichierTexte!) (= null)) {}

  myTextFrame.insertionPoints.item(-1).place (myTextFile);

  }

  Place a graphic

  Display a standard dialog box open the file to select a graphic file.

  var myGraphicFile is File.openDialog ("choose a graphic file");.

  If you have selected a graphics file, and if you didn't press Cancel,

  Place the graphic file on the page.

  If ((myGraphicFile! = "") & & (myGraphicFile!) (= null)) {}

  var myGraphic = myDocument.pages.item (0) .place (myGraphicFile);

  //Since you can place multiple graphics at once, the place method

  //returns a table. For the graph you have placed, get the first

  //item in the table (beginning of JavaScript arrays with element 0).

  myGraphic = myGraphic [0];

  //Create a style object to apply to the graphic image.

  var myObjectStyle = myDocument.objectStyles.item("GraphicFrame");

  try {

  var myName = myObjectStyle.name;

  }

  catch (MonErreur) {}

  //The an object style have not exist, so create it.

  myObjectStyle = myDocument.objectStyles.add({name:"GraphicFrame"});)

  }

  myObjectStyle.enableStroke = true;

  myObjectStyle.strokeWeight = 3;

  myObjectStyle.strokeType = myDocument.strokeStyles.item("Solid");

  myObjectStyle.strokeColor = myDocument.colors.item("Green");

  //The frame containing the graphic is the parent of the graphic.

  myFrame.fit (FitOptions.proportionally);

  / / Next, mount the frame to the resized image.

  myFrame.fit (FitOptions.frameToContent);

  var myBounds = myFrame.geometricBounds;

  //Move the graphic frame.

  var myPageWidth = myDocument.documentPreferences.pageWidth;

  var myTopMargin = myDocument.pages.item (0).marginPreferences.top;

  myFrame.move ([myPageWidth-myGraphicWidth, myTopMargin]);

  //Apply a wrap to the graphic frame.

  myFrame.textWrapPreferences.textWrapType = TextWrapTypes.boundingBoxTextWrap;

  myFrame.textWrapPreferences.textWrapOffset = [12, 24, 12, 24].

  }

  I hope someone can point me in the right direction.
  Thanks in advance.

  Hey, Ron.

  The problem has nothing to do with your script. You can see if you attempt to place the file from indesign tagged text by hand.

  Your instinct for divide and conquer for debugging is a good - have a short text file to work with is very useful - of course this is also true for the script.

  During the validation of the scripts on the forum, please do not use the syntax insert > feature Java which lies behind the > arrow in the toolbar. Otherwise, cut and paste your script are difficult requiring manual corrections.

  Anyway, your problem is that each paragraph can have only a single paragraph style, and it's the last one that you define.

  So in your IDTT file, you set the heading 1 paragraph style, enter the content of the paragraph and then set the style of paragraph votes to zero.

  If you have included a line break before setting the style of paragraph votes to zero, you must set the None style for the following paragraph. But since you have not, it resets just the style to the current paragraph.

  In short: success back before .
