Replace all elements of master page with Applescript
I did a production script to convert all text in InDesign to outlines.
Tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
tell the active document
tell each page
tell each text block to create outlines
tell the end
tell the end
tell the end
In the documents that I have the conversion, many of the type is defined in master pages, if I want to add a command in the script that replaces all master page items before converting vectorised text, but I'm not find this command in the dictionary. Does anyone know how to do this with Applescript?
The substitution command would be a good starting point. Try something like:
say application "Adobe InDesign CS5.
say document 1
Repeat with I 1 to the number of pages
override (each element of the master page of the page elements I which leave substitutes is true) destination page page I
end Repeat
end say
end say

How to replace the element on the page master on master spread [JS CS5]
Hi all
There is a big media (scripts) on how to replace the element template on a page of a specific document, but my problem is, I've added new Master spread based on a further propagation where newly added distributed Master I need to replace all the elements to master basic page.
pageItems [curPageItem] .override (destinationPage)
works well if you replace the elements of master page on the pages of a document, but what works for replace page elements master master page for example
pageItems [curPageItem] .override (destinationMasterPage)
Thank you
Mac
Similar code worked for me (in CS4 - the machine, I had very practical is the one I use to accompany clients on older versions). Are you sure that your destinationMasterPage is a page and not a spread? This would cause a failure.

Blocks of text on the Master Pages with CS3?
I produce a catalog in CS3 on my Mac using OS Mavericks.
I put in place of master pages with square 6 graphic blocks on each page. Each of them has a CAPTION below, in which I put up as a block of text. I clicked on "Apply Master pages", but when I go to the blocks of text pages are not displayed to the top. The only way I can enter captions on pages is by creating new blocks of text, 6 on each page, which is very tedious and time consuming. What I am doing wrong?
Thank you.
Welll...
As bob says it is not Quark where you can just click to type in a main frame, but you CAN Cmd + Shift + click to override the main chassis and type in it. You might be better off, however, with a framework prédimensionnée and style in a library that you can drag onto the page and position. My feeling on frameworks masters get substitution is that they probably shouldn't be on the master page at all.

Can FrameMaker to create several Master Pages with sizes different pages in a single file of FM?

You must break your content between files and use the book feature to apply numbering to make look it seamless. Sometimes, if you can, re - organize the content so that all oversize pages come at the end of a chapter/file makes it easier to manage a such split files in the book.

How to create a validation "not null" unique for all elements in a page?
Hello world
How to create a validation "not null" unique for all elements in a page? I love textfields. Rather than create "not null" validation for each article, I would like to create a single validation control that will be used
Thanks and greetings

Bob, like u said I did the following:(1) less to create a button, there are 9 elements, and for each item, I put in the light of 'yes '.
(2) under the button Delete, there is 1 point and have in light of the 'Yes' for the item
(3) validation of the page defined for the 9 items under 'create a button' and put it to fire when 'create' button clicked
(4) the page validation set for 1 number under 'remove' button and put it on fire when "delete" button clickednow, when I click on the 'create' button it shows same for the item under the "Delete" button that's a required element
Sorry, I do not see this note. The required model will not work, there is no way to attach it to the button.
The best solution is that the answer only a few answers to the top
Create 2 validations page type as a PL/SQL with code
1st validation :P1_ITEM1 IS NOT NULL and :P1_ITEM2 IS NOT NULL ...... and :P1_ITEM9 IS NOT NULL include all 9 items Set the When Button Pressed to the CREATE button 2nd validation :P1_ITEM10 IS NOT NULL Set the When Button Pressed to the DELETE button
I think that this will be the best way to do it.

Reduce and the passage of all elements on the page
Is it possible to reduce in size all elements on a page and keep away them from the Center? Just the shift would be good. In InDesign itself (for export to the PDF format), or so in the form of single page PDF.
BACKGROUND
(No need to read this part - just more explanation)
I have a sewn book of 800 pages, which is about 75 mm thick. When open to the pages where an image through the Center, the appearance of the image could be improved (in my mind) if each half was far removed from the Center - for two reasons: (1) sometimes the crease or printing is exactly where it should be, so a millimeter or bit near the image is lost. (2) the book opens perfectly flat, so a part of the image is lost in the 'Valley', where the pages of the curve to the bottom of the spine.
To solve these two problems, I paste the image in place, each half to the longitudinal axis of the cultures and then they away from the center of a certain amount. Not much - only 0.5 mm as a test. So much for my test. When I received the proof of the printer, he unwittingly chose a print mode that reduces the size of the page to about 98% and centered TI *. This meant that I had margins which were reduced by about 3 mm. Now, there is certainly no problem with parts of images lost - there is a gap of 6 mm in the middle of the book (3 mm the two pages). I've linked the book and, surprisingly, it turned out pretty well. My checker does not pick up the imperfection until she met an image that spread through the centre of a signature. The white space in the middle of the image stood out more obviously to this place than in others; but other than that, everything looks pretty good.
This imperfection, which in some ways is an improvement, led me to think about a re-layout of the book. I actually want the images that cross the axis moved, but it seems to me the best way to do that, through the entire book, is simply the scale of something like 99.5%, which has no effect on the appearance of the text, but to move everything in the Center by a mm or more.
* The printer who learns how to print PDFs 2-top. See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/511830?tstart=0
Why not to export a press quality PDF, then place that?
Use the script by Scott Zanelli you find to http://indesignsecrets.com/downloads/MultiPageImporter2.2.1.zip position and import on the scale.

Master page with rollover menu, using States, does not work for all pages?
Hello.
I created my masterpage with a basic at the top menu. It has two States. The 1st State is normal and State 2 is a simple rollover behavior, just a different color.
Why my menu would work perfectly on the page ' 01', but then the reversal function does not work for other pages? (portfolio 03 etc.). She has just the hoverover slider and the link, but the color does not change.
I have something wrong?
Thanks a lot for all the help on these forums
Make sure that all the subpages have a second State added to them. You
do not put any content on this State, but it must be present
the transfer of work from the watch page.
If you do not already have that second State, trying to link then cancelled
the subpages of the master page. I came across this scenario recently
because I had created a master page after some of my subpages have been
already built.

Hey,.
I would have thought it would be easy to find, but I can't seem to.
I have a master page and you want to have an empty text box in the same place for a new page is created each time. When I do that on the master page, of course the text box is not on the newly created page, I must just be missing something?
Do you use the master with the text block? What makes you think he isn't here?
Text blocks master really designed to arise text, which replaces automatically. If you want to type or paste the text in there you need to override their first manually.
Hold down the Shift-Ctrl/Cmd and click on the frame to substitute it.

Is it possible to get rid of 2Installez bearings commented for the elements of master page?
My page has several images in box and text box, and I work with benchmarks commented on, which snaps and helps me when working with objects.
Now the problem is when working in the pages of a document the smart guides align with the elements of the page master/objects, which is very annoying. Is it possible to get rid of guides, alignment of the master page elements?
Thanks for me know how to disable it...
TOUATI M
TOUATI,
You want Smart Guides to work this way, but this isn't an option in InDesign for the Smart Guides preferences. Here are four options you can choose or not choose in preferences > Guides & table editing. Application to Master objects is not one of the choices:

How can I create a new master page with a different set of pages for the menu bar?
I want to create a new Master Page that could be used for a different set of pages with a different menu pointing to other pages...
For example:
Master A to include a menu for pages:
Page 1, Page 2, Page 3,
Master B to the guests for the pages menu:
Page 1, Page 4, Page 5...
Maybe I would also do Master C and D with a bar of menus different total...
But how can I isolate the menu bar from the rest of the pages that I don't want it?
Right click on this page that you want to isolate > menu goto option > exclude from the menu.
Hope It could help.

Using Master pages with image placeholders
I created a template that contains the placeholder image and header and body copy text fields... but I can't understand how to use it once I'm inside a page. In InDesign, you can substitute a main object, but I can't seem to understand. Is it still possible?
Let me know and thanks!
The content placed in a master page cannot be selected/edited in the master page and not in the related content pages. A Master Page in Muse allows you to apply common elements such as the navigation, logos, headers, and footers to multiple pages in your site. A way around this would be to create an object that overlap in the content page in order to hide the Master object behind overlapping object to using the layers feature.
Hope this helps, let me know if it's not exactly what you are looking for.
Thank you

Master page with editable text
I am very confused and I asked a similar question before, but I hope someone could explain a little more in detail.
I created a new master with a header, the footer and the main content area. The main content should be editable for each page I add to the document, but I can't for the life of understand me how do! Has this changed since the first Indesign CS?
If the header and footer will remain the same throughout the document - if I change this in the master it will then change throughout. The text box will also remain the same throughout, but I should be able to add content to this area on each page I create in my document. For the moment that I can't. It won't let me choose this region that I created on the pages in my document.
Thanks in advance for any help.
If it should be changed for each page it belongs to a master. If you want something like "Click here to add text", you can simply ctrl/cmd + shift click to replace the item and bring it to the live page.

All bookmarks are still on my mobile. I can see and access. When using the synchronization options, then clicking on the fact, absolutely nothing happens. The bookmarks are always on my mobile and not transferred to office.
Hello!
I am trying to understand the workflow in detail. Let me explain quickly what is the right process:
- Sync your phone to your desktop (you already did that)
- Clean your computer (you already did that)
- Follow these steps in the newly installed Firefox https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20sync%20Firefox%20settings%20between%20computers?s=sync & r = 3 & as=s#w_what-if-im-not-near-my-first-computer
That of all, make sure you have the key to Firefox Sync in order to access your Firefox Sync account again. Do not create a new or if not you will remove the data from the server. If you have lost your key synchronization, you can get it from your phone by installing the add-on on your Android device: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/addon/aboutsynckey/
I hope this helps you.

HP Officejet All In One 2620: Page with the document creation date
When I go to print a document, I get a page of head showing the file name, directory, template etc which is a waste of paper! How can I stop this impression
What operating system? What program are you printing from? If you print from 2016 Word click file, view, Options, Print Options, and uncheck the Print Options of the Document, OK. Other versions of Word would be similar.
