Error message when running MultiPageImporter script

Hello,
I had posted this in the Adobe forum, and it was suggested I move it over here.
I have a 300+ page document - original is 8.5x5.5.
I want to print it on 8.5x11 sheets - landscape - so two pages are on each sheet.
BUT - I want to have my two copies printed - and then cut the pages in half to end up with two full books...
So if I print two copies, I need page 1 and page 1 on the same side on the same page - page 2 twice on the back...
I was directed to a script download:
Actually an InDesign script makes it possible.
Create a new 8.5 x 11 document.
Install this script
http://indesignsecrets.com/downloads/MultiPageImporter2_5.zip
Run the script twice, changing the x offset 5.5 inches (relative to top left) for the second run.
I have downloaded the script and am trying to run it in InDesign CS6.
I get this error when I run:
Any suggestions as to how I can make this work?
Thanks !
Amber

Here is another way to do this, in case someone is interested: Open your PDF in Acrobat and go to tools> Pages> Extract pages as separate files. Put these pages in a folder and duplicate it. Open the duplicate folder, select all files and do a batch re-name, adding "a" at the end of the name (before the extension.pdf). I use the Mac plug-in "Path finder" for this, but I think you can also do it in Bridge, Grep, and probably other programs. Move the re-named files into the folder with your original extracted PDFs. When viewed by name, the file order should be 1,1a  2,2a  3,3a  and so on. Open the last page in Acrobat and go to File> Tools> Insert from file> Shift select all of the pages (except the one you have open) and insert. I'm not sure why, but the pages will be added in reverse order. Save your new PDF. Make a one page InDesign file at 5.5x8.5 (facing pages) and use the Place multipage PDF script to add your PDF. Export to spread pages. If you don't want to print in reverse order, I think most printers have a reverse order option, there are also scripts available to reverse the order of PDFs, or you can use this web too:

  • Getting error message when running a script to make an .doc attachment open

    This script:
    var cPath = "|" + this.path + "|U:\uFEFF" + this.dataObjects[1].name;
    app.openDoc(cPath);
    Open PDFs fine but when I try to open a docx document I get an error message:
    NotAllowedError: Security Settings prevent access to this property or method.

    When trying to open a non-PDF file, you must specify to use a converter, by
    setting the parameter bUseConv to true (which can only be done in a
    privileged context). Also, I'm not familiar with this type of path... Are
    you using this to open a file attached to the active PDF? Does it work?
    Have a looked at the openDataObject-method of the Document object? It is
    meant to launch PDF attachments of a file (but it can't be used for any
    other file format).

  • Pop-up error messages when running a script?? make them go away!

    v1.5.1, build 5440.
    I've been running a development setup script for some months now.
    It has errors in it, it creates synonyms or grants for objects that no longer exist. ( It's not been worth my time to correct it, because I just run it and ignore the errors for now. I'll tidy up when I'm building the installers.)
    Suddenly, today, sql developer has decided to pop-up a message window to tell me about each error. I have to press ok for it to continue. On top of the annoyance factor that a task that took 5 seconds now takes 60, the message is totally useless because it doesn't tell me which object does not exist! In other words, I will still have to read the output log anyway!
    I haven't changed any of my settings, though I did have to restore to an old version of my connections file when it got corrupted (again).
    So, why/how did these messages decide to show up, and more importantly, how can I make them go away?

    You could check with [http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/helpcentral/ Yahoo Help] to see if other users have seen this problem with Yahoo Mail ... for example, I found [http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20111027204141AANNBYY this] where a user had a similar problem that had to do with Messenger contacts:
    Thanks for this. Follow-up: Found out 15' ago after a lot of clickety-click that you can mousey up to the upper left of the screen. Click "Options." If you see a "Messenger" option, then open that up and select "only my Contacts can message me." That seems to have gotten rid of "yummicrush698."

    Did your custom report ever ran successfully in the environment you are getting the error.
    Most of the time not all the report definition and associated definitions are migrated to the next environment.
    Have a look at following doc:

    We purchased Licensed version of Red Hat Linux Oracle for our network server. My boss wanted a simple way of installing Samba on it so that the server can be used for file and printer sharing. We have an active directory on our network and couple of other Windows servers as well as other Red Hat servers. He wants to install Samba on that licensed version so that it can primarily be used for file storage and sharing, he wants to be able to connect with gui type interface to this server from windows machines and linux machines and he wants for this Red Hat Linux Oracle machine to show up in active directory.
    Aparently when we went to Applications, Add Remove Software in Red Hat Fedora Samba was not in there.
    When we go to System, Administration, Server Settings, Services, Samba is also not there.
    Nowhere can we find an easy way of installing samba on this Linux OS.
    I went to your site, signed in, (previously there was only 1 channel available there, I have just recently found and added all the channels that were aplicable to our system) and downloading them now to another version of the same type of Licensed Red Hat Linux Oracle. Hopefully when I use Software Updater in System Tools it will load the packages we are loking for (from the channels I selected on your website). Once that is done I think I could just go to add remove software and install the packages that I need from there.
    I am still not sure why I set out to install repositories on this version of Linux, perhaps I mistakenly thought that once everything is installed (according to directions at http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/htdocs/yum-repository-setup.html) on the machine in question I would be able to use that same machine to get the packages for that same machine. We were in such a rush and desperate to put the server on to the network it did not dawn on me that this scenario is designed to have one serve on the network that holds repositories and other machines connect to it for packages.
    I think I am on the right track in my logic, log in to your site with the CSI number, user name and password, select ALL the channels versus only one, save the search, then from the machine update packages, then add new software and Samba Should be in there. I would like to hear your thoughts on this.
    This version of Linux seem like a very reliable version of OS and I would hate to give up on it, especially since we already bought licenses for it, its just that we don't have that much experience with it and I would upreciate all the info that you can give us for it. I am sure that everyone at SMMJ will upreciate you for it.

    There are several reasons for the release not happeneing.
    1. The issue could be in the selection of release type

  • Error message when running updates

    I keep getting an error message when updating my CS programs. "This update from the internet cannot be completed. Please try again later."
    I bought a Canon 6D and the Adobe Camera Raw won't work because it isn't the latest version and that it needs the latest PS version to run the latest Raw version and I can't get either update. Help?

    Cameras by ACR version:  Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Programs by ACR version: Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    You should be able to update CS5 without getting an error which is ostensibly what this thread is about, but you are correct in needing CS6 to use ACR 7.3 which is the minimum version of ACR that supports the 6D natively.  You can use the DNG Converter to make DNGs that the older ACR will read, but that has nothing to do with images already processed in LR, because LR knows newer adjustments than your CS5's ACR 6 does.
    To go from LR to PS you'll need to use Edit In PS CS5 and when you see the message about ACR being too old, choose Render using LR Adjustments and Don't Ask Again if that is also an option.  This will cause LR to render a TIF or PSD (whatever you've chosen in the External Editing area of LR Preferences).  If you don't see a message about ACR being too old because you've selected Don't Ask Again previously then you can click the Reset Warning Dialogs button in Preferences and get a chance to answer the question differently if need be.

  • Error message when running script via package

    Hi there,
    I have a problem I can't understand - I am running a script from a package, and I get this error message:
    CopyCatFinanceError
    Invalid dimension ALL_FCSTPRICING in Lookup rule
    where CopyCatFinance is the name of the package, and ALL_FCSTPRICING is the name of a parent in the Category dimension.
    I don't understand why this member is being flagged as a DIMENSION, when it is only a member. And I don't understand why this is being flagged at all - this dimension has been reprocessed, as has the application (in fact, all the applications), the script has been re-validated and a full Optimise has been run several times...
    I am now out of ideas! Any thoughts?
    We are running BPC for MS 7.0 sp 7, on SQL 2005.
    Thanks a lot,
    Jason
    PS. And there are no lookups in this script either - I'm referencing the category dimension with the %CATEGORY_SET% variable as the user selects this at runtime.

    Can you post your logic, also check your lgx files are making sense.

  • Oracle DRM v11.1.1.1.0 Error message when running a book

    I am running a book export data to an Oracle table and the the error message "The following Export(s) ran with no results" and it lists all of the exports found in the book.

    Hi iam new to drm ,installedon my lappi,and when i try to configure,i am understanding the the pre-requisites
    Oracle Database Prerequisitesl If you are using an Oracle RAC database system, you must create the tablespaces with the
    appropriate RDBMS software prior to installation.
    Whether the scripts are run automatically or manually, the user must be logged in as
    SYSTEM. When you manually execute the database scripts, the DRM_DB user is created in
    the RDBMS (if it does not already exist). The DRM_DB user is assigned a default tablespace
    of DRM_DATA and must have access rights to the following items:
    Default tablespace (usually DRM_DATA)
    UNLIMITED TABLESPACE
    CONNECT
    CREATE ANY SEQUENCE
    CREATE USER
    ALTER USER
    ====================================================
    When you manually execute the database scripts, the user is logged in as the schema owner
    which, has a default tablespace of DRM_DATA. This user must have access rights to the
    following items:
    m Default tablespace (usually DRM_DATA) — this can be done after the install if the
    tablespaces were not created.
    UNLIMITED TABLESPACE
    DBA
    CONNECT
    CREATE ANY SEQUENCE
    CREATE USER
    ALTER USER
    =========================================================
    according to the previous understanding of hyperion modules.this time i created a new user "DRM_DATA" under orcl DB
    and provide him dba,connct,view,procedure,trigger,session roles..
    and when i try to configure it then it states some error//////
