Table text frame width adjustment by script
Hi,
I have to capture my table cells within ‘Text Frame Width’ option with ‘Distribute Column Evenly’ , when it’s going to beyond the ‘Text Frame Width’. Is this possible by script?

Hi Hasvi,
Try this.
var doc = app.activeDocument,
_tables = doc.stories.everyItem().tables.everyItem().getElements(),
_tfwidth, _cells, finalwidthofcell;
for(var i =0;i<_tables.length;i++)
var currentwidth = 0;
_tfwidth = _tables[i].parent.geometricBounds[3] - _tables[i].parent.geometricBounds[1];
_cells = _tables[i].rows[0].cells;
for(var j=0;j<_cells.length;j++)
currentwidth +=_cells[j].width;
if(currentwidth > _tfwidth)
finalwidthofcell = _tfwidth/_cells.length;
for(var k=0;k<_cells.length;k++)
_cells[k].width =finalwidthofcell;

Set top and bottom inset spacing values in Text Frame Options via jsx script
I am looking for a way to set the top and bottom inset spacing values only to 2 points in Text Frame Options via a .jsx scrpt.
For years, I have used a script that sets Preferences, such as:
with(app.storyPreferences){
opticalMarginAlignment = false;
opticalMarginSize = 12; // pts
I would like to add the code to this same script that would make Top = 0p2 and Bottom 0p2 but leave Left and Right as 0p0.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.Here is the full .jsx file that we now use to set preferences.
Ideally, this could be modified to include setting any text frame created to have 0p2 inset Top and Bottom, but 0p0 Left and Right:

How to set italic to a text frame with a JS script
Hello guys,
I'm a java developper, and for my customer I have to generate some JS scripts for Illustrator CS3/Windows XP.
In my use case, I need to layout several textframes. Some need to be "bolded", some others have to be underlined, and some need to be italic.
I found how to set the bold and underline attributes, but for the italic, I can't see any option related to it. I saw the "CharacterAttributes#italics" property, but the description is a bit odd: "If true, the Japanese OpenType
font supports italics."... it doesn't fit my needs...
Is it possible to make a text italic with a JS script in Illustrator?You will have to use the proper italic form of the font. AI does not support Faux italic or bold.

Best SEO practices for text frames in content areas
Hello,
Is it best practice for SEO to keep all text (H1, H2, H3 <p> etc.) on a web page in one text frame and adjust with spacing between paragraphs to add additional elements (Video, widgets etc.) or is it better to use separate text boxes and place elements between them?
Thanks! Below is an example. Should the H1 and both paragraphs be in one text frame space out to fit video or two separate text frames with the video between them?
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

The video takes longer to download and may also be blocked by the users settings so having it separate allows my text to load (and appear) quickly even if the video encounters issues.
I would only separate the two text sections if they are clearly different in style or content and that’s really only helpful if you want a phone and/ or tablet version of your pages… it makes your life easier then to have the text in separate containers when you want to sync them across the different layouts. -
[JS][CC] How can I get the last visible character in an overflowed Text Frame?
Hello
I'm new in InDesign scripting in javascript. I would like to know if there is a way to get the position of the last character in a Text Frame that is overflowed? I need this because I want to calculate how many characters are hidden (overflowing text) via script.
I've searched in the forums about this but what I find is always a script for alerting if there's overset text or not.
I'd really appreciate any help!Well, let's say that myFrame is an overflowing text frame.
So, the last character in that frame would be
myFrame.characters[-1];
To calculate the number of overflowing characters, select the
overflowing text frame, and run this script:
myFrame = app.selection[0];
myParentStory = myFrame.parentStory;
alert("Number of overflowing characters is
"+myParentStory.characters.itemByRange(myFrame.characters[-1],
myParentStory.characters[-1]).length-1);

[AS] Access Text Frame Labels in CS5

Rounded corners on text frames in FrameMaker...
First, thank you.
Does anybody know if there is a way to put "rounded corners" on text frames?
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!Other than with the graphic tools, FM doesn't cleanly support RRs, such as for tables, text frames, or frame generally. Some other WP/DTP apps do.
In a prior career I had to use drawn or imported RRs in-frame during a fleeting period when the enterprise styleguide demanded it. It was replaced by rectangles shortly thereafter, but they also switched to pallid pastels and an illegible core font, just to sustain the pain.
I predict that by the time FM gets comprehensive RR capability, the art directors of the world will have decided that the corners really need to be hyperbolic arcs, with drop shadows, central radial gradients and a subtly throbbing glow. -
Tables inside overset text frames
Hi everybody!
Im trying to write a script to set the width of all tables in a document equal to its parent text frame, I was succesful, but
the tables that are overflowed do not get resized. I have only come up with a way to find if there is an overflowed text frame
but not to find and overflowed text frame contents. PLS HELP!
heres my code:
//resizes tables
var myTextFrames = app.activeDocument.textFrames.everyItem();
var myTables = myTextFrames.tables.everyItem().getElements();
for (var i = 0; i < myTables.length; i++){
var myTextFrame = myTables[i].parent;
var myWidth = myTextFrame.visibleBounds[3] - myTextFrame.visibleBounds[1];
myTables[i].width = myWidth;
//finds a textframe with overset text
var myOverset = app.activeDocument.textFrames.everyItem().getElements();
for(var x = 0; x < myOverset.length; x++){
if(myOverset[x].overflows == true){
alert("There is overset text")@Kai – cool. Maybe just a little thing:
You suppose that the first text frame of a given story has the same width as the one with the overset (holding a table in the overflow).
So, if we have the following situation:
A table in the overflow will get too wide after running your script:
Instead of the first text frame in the story we could address the last one directly with:
else if ( container.constructor.name == "Story" ) {
var myTextFrame = container.textContainers[0].endTextFrame;
And the result will be:
The property endTextFrame is in the class of TextFrame.
We could also have written:
else if ( container.constructor.name == "Story" ) {
var myTextFrame = container.textContainers[container.textContainers.length-1];

Help with adjusting layout, re-sizing text frames and images to fit new margin?
i'm using InDesign CS5.5. I have a layout with several text frame boxes as well as some jpg and pdf images. I'm expanding the margin on one side and want to expand the text frames to utilize the extra space rather than just shift everything over. I've used the adjust layout script (which still requires some manual adjustment after) and obviously everything can be done manually but I'm looking for a more efficient solution. One challenge is that my pdf image needs to be re-sized separately to maintain scale of the image, the text frames just expand horizontally. What I would like is to have is a script that can do all of this at once, or is there a way to save the layout settings and apply them to my other documents? I have almost 300 documents to adjust... Can anyone suggest anything? Thanks.
It could probably be modified to run on all open docs or a folder. You should ask over in scripting. InDesign Scripting

Multiple selected text frame to table
I am looking for a script that will allow me to select multiple text frames at one time and have the contents in those text frames converted to tables.
What I have to do now is place the cursor in one text frame, select all, select menu item "convert to table", the defalt dialog appears and I click ok.
I have ten text frames on a page (for example). The manual process means I have to do the text to table 10 times per page.
So, I would like a script that will allow me to select all 10 text frames and convert the content of each frame to a table.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
RPPThis should do it:
if (app.documents.length > 0 && app.selection.length > 0)
for (i = 0; i < app.selection.length; i++)
try {app.selection[i].texts[0].convertToTable ("\t", "\r")}
catch (_) {}

How to enable the script label of a text frames in indesign using applescript
hi all,
am using Indesign CS2 with applescript..
Using script I have to open a template in indesign and flow the word document into it...
I can able to flow the word document into the template using "Place" command..but script labels of the text frames gets disabled...
I need the script labels to be enabled...
can anybody help me
thanks in advanceScript labels can't be disabled, so I'm not sure what your problem is -- perhaps seeing some code could help. Could it be that you're referencing a page item by label, but it is not responding because the item is part of a group?

Bullet problem when creating text frames and tables in InDesign CS5
Every time I create a new text frame or table in InDesign CS5 and paste information there, the first row in the table or several lines of text come out with bullet points. I'm sure this is a setting or style at some point I created and now am unsure of how to delete. I would like the new text frames and tables to not include bullet points as a default when imported or pasted. Any thoughts? Thanks!
Defaults for text in the current document are made with no text selected. Turn off bullets and they should stay off (but check the styles, too, you might have accidentally set a bulleted style as the defualt and you should change the default style instead). If this is happening in all files, you need to do it with nothing open to reset the default for all new documents (existing files, unfortunately, need to be fixed one at a time).
