ADOBE INDESIGN CS4 SERVER - ??

I've been learning about MAMP.
Having a little difficulty but working through it.
I see that Adobe has come out with "ADOBE INDESIGN CS4
SERVER"...
Anybody know anything about it?
I don't see that it supports PHP.
Didn't see the price on their web page either.

Debug version of Adobe InDesign CS4 Server

Hi All,
I have installed Debug version of Adobe InDesign CS4 Server on my PC. It gets install properly. When I try to start the server it gives me such error "The system cannot execute the specified program."
I have written following command to start the server.
eg.
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS4 Server>Indesignserver
So please tell me if there is another command to start the server or the set up that I have is not proper.
Thanks & Regards,
Santosh Kadam.

Hi,
Have u supplied registration keys at the time of installation?
Are other InDesign software woring on ur PC?
Hope this information will help me to fix it.

InDesign CS4 Server serialisation

Hi guys,
I'm installing a InDesign CS4 Server on Windows 2003 Server for Small Business Server, Service Pack 2. 4Gb available on C:drive,Intel Xeon 3.2Ghz, 4Gb Ram
The machine had InDesign CS3 Server installed previously.
1. Uninstalled InDesign CS3 Server
2. Rebooted Machine.
3. Installed CS4 Server
4. Installed latest Rapid Release
5. Setup Win Service
and wondered why I wasn't prompted for the serial number at start of install. (ok, I hear you... should have read the read-me file first to see if anything in the installation process had changed...).
So I stopped the ID-Service and then ran the command-line serialisation at this point.
Checked in TaskManager no ID Server was running.
However the serialisation hangs after:
<pre>
08/26/09 10:15:05 INFO [server] Server Runnin/g
</pre>
And the serialisation process seems to launch two processes at this stage: InDesignServer.com and InDesignServer.exe.
Which is right before this step... which is repeated twice and then the cursor just sits there... (doing nothing).
<pre>
[javascript] Executing File: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adob
e InDesign CS4 Server\Scripts\Export As XHTML\XHTMLExportMenuItem.jsxbin
</pre>
Before back-tracking fully and doing a complete uninstall and reinstall (and this time serialising after step 3), I thought I'd check if anyone had come across this and has a possible clue as to what's going in. Any help appreciated.
At this stage I'm scheduling a full uninstall/reinstall for Thursday if things aren't resolved today (Wednesday).
Thanks,

That looks correct - InDesignServer is up & running, waiting for commands, or a control-c to quit.
InDesignServer.com is a shell app which launches InDesignServer.exe, so having both processes active is correct.
Once you have successfully serialized (as it appears you have), you should be able to restart either via the Windows service or at the command line without the '-serialnumber' parameter.

Adobe InDesign CS5 Server SDK - libraries JAVA

trying with helloworld.java in ids cs5 server sdk.
the library com.adobe.ids.sdk.utils.* cannot be imported.
any idea how/from where to import it?
are there more libraries available?

Thanks for that tip Harbs, I have regenerated the API, which produced an InDesignServerAPI.jar that I've been able to use to compile and run against CS5 Server. So I can get on with developing again now . However, it's inconvenient to have to regenerate just to be able to start Java development (and it would be worse if I was using Windows because I'd need to buy Visual Studio, fortunately all the tools needed for regeneration on Mac OS X are free).
Also there are some very useful documents included in the CS4 Server SDK that aren't in the CS5 Products SDK, for example ww-ids-java.pdf (Working with Adobe Indesign CS4 Server Java) and the "Regenerating the Adobe InDesign CS5 Server Java API" document mentions the Server SDK (e.g. "The InDesign CS5 Server SDK installation contains the prebuilt Java API Jar file") so I'm still curious as to whether there will be a CS5 Server SDK.

You can't open the application "Adobe InDesign CS4" because it is not supported on this architecture"

A day or two ago I went through installing Adobe InDesign CS4 on Leopard OS X.5.8. After what appears to be a successful installati
on, in launching InDesign CS4 the message " You can't open the application "Adobe InDesign CS4" because it is not supported on this
architecture" comes up". Calling in to support and speaking with the agent who read through previous posts, suggested to me that I
should try the same fix that has been suggested when I ran across an error when installing Adobe InDesign CS4 on another separate ha
rd drive externally connected to this computer running Snow Leopard OS X.6.1 for the error reading: "Damaged &/or incomplete install
ation" when launching afterwards. The support technician told me to first delete with the uninstall Adobe InDesign CS4, InDesign.
Following this I am told to run the CS4 Cleanup Utility. I restart the computer each and every time after running each of the utili
ties. Now I am told to install InDesign as a trial version from the DVD and after installation to go ahead & enter the serial numbe
r. When launching InDesign CS4 after installation got back the same error as before: "You can't open the application "Adobe InDesig
n CS4" because it is not supported on this architecture" comes up". Followed KB404711 article and no success. What else can be don
e to fix this issue?
This morning contacted Adobe Support regarding this response:
After having a detailed reserach on your issue i acme to the conclusion
that the problem you are having is not related to Adobe software but its
in fact related to your MAC version ( OSX-5.8). While reseraching your
issue i came across
to many forums where a lot of postings were about the similar error but
with different products the only comon thing was all the Errors were
with Mac machine , also when you check the system requirements for
Adobe Indesign Cs4
by going to the following link
http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/systemreqs/?promoid=DRHXE you
will find the Mac OS version supported are from Mac OS X
v10.4.11–10.5.4. but we do support Snow Leoprad , so i would like
to advise to you to either contact your system manufacturer or upgrade
to Snow Leopard ( mac os x 10.6)
I have been told that my case is being sent to Level 2 agents and that it can take 24-48 hours for a response. In the meantime I decided to see what the Support Forums can do for me. Until then I am down. Thanks for the help.

In the application folder there is a folder 'Adobe InDesign CS4' within which there is just the application file. I would expect there should be more file there??
I've un-installed and installed again - still the same.
Even downloaded the dmg again and done thwe whole thing over again.

I can't open *.indd files in Adobe InDesign CS4

I've just installed the trial version of Adobe Indesign CS4 and I cannot open my *.indd files which contain my business brochures etc.
How can they be opened?
Operating system: Windows XP pro SP3.
Processor: Intel E8400, Gigabyte P35 Chipset with 4Gb RAM.
Thank you for your help.
Tim

Hi, I've tried double clicking as one would normally do and I get the error message:
Cannot open "filename.indd"
The files were created in Adobe InDesign by a company that specialises in brochure design and they kindly gave me the files they originally created (to be printed by a professional printer) so that I could make some minor modifications (for the next run from the professional printer), using my trial copy of Adobe InDesign.
I know that this company uses a Mac operating system but I don't know which version of InDesign they use. I shall ask them if this is relevant (which I guess it will be!).

Adobe InDesign CS4 Stops Working - Windows 7 Ultimate

I have a new computer with 8g of Ram running Windows 7 Ultimate, with an Intel i7 860 2.8 and everything has been working fine until an hour ago and now everytime I open InDesign and start working on a file, I get the error message that Windows has to close InDesign that it is not working properly.
I went ahead and made sure I had the latest updates, I removed the Preference file, rebooted and I am still having this same problem.
I also get a message when I start InDesign and Illustrator that I have to restart FMCore.exe has been stopped. Please start it form the Windows Control Panel for Universal Type Client and then relaunch Adobe InDesign CS4. I click OK and InDesign opens. I cannot find anywhere to start the FMCore.exe. I think it applies to a Mac computer.
Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated. I may trying reinstalling InDesign CS4 but I am not sure if I should do so.
All the best,
Aleda Downs

Hi Peter:
I think the crash may be related to this file. When I opened another file and moved around InDesign acted fine. It appears that is crashes with this one file that I have been working on all day.
Any suggestions before I do a system restore, as to how to repair a file? The file keeps opening, but when I try to access a menu item or navigate to a different page, that is when I get the error. On the other file, I did everything and not a problem. I think it might be this file.
Any thoughts?
All the best,
Aleda

Adobe Indesign CS4

I am a member of academic staff and purchased (the university purchased it for me - London Metropolitan University, London, England) Adobe Indesign CS4. The serial number is: [deleted by moderator]. I uploaded this software from a disc onto my laptop. I have used it successfully. I now need to transfer this software from my laptop to my main PC (this is NOT any kind of ownership transfer). Can I just copy it via a portable hard-drive? Should I upload the disc software again onto the main PC? Can I do this?
I have transfered the software onto the hard-drive but it will only open if it is pluggged into the original laptop.
I look forward to answers please

NEVER post a serial number.
If you're going to use it on both machines then just install it from the disk. If you're done with laptop, open InDesign and choose help>deactivate.

Will Adobe inDesign CS4 and Photoshop CS4 run on Yosemite?

InDesign has Issues.
Photoshop appears to be OK but a re-installation may be necessary. Run the CS Cleaner Tools below and PS uninstaller before attempting to re-install PS CS4.

CS4 "You cannot open the application Adobe InDesign CS4 because it is not supported on this archit

Just installed CS4. Ai and Ps open fine. i get this prompt with InDesign.
You cannot open the application Adobe InDesign CS4 because it is not supported on this architecture.
any clues on how resolve this?
thanks!

I'm having exactly the same problem with InDesign from CS4 Design Standard (Photoshop and Illustrator both work), and I don't know what to do. I've called up the Adobe support line five times, and received five different answers, none of which have worked (and on three other occasions, my call was dropped, once after an hour on hold).
One of the Adobe tech support people said to me "None of CS4 works with either 10.5.8 or Snow Leopard. We will issue a patch for that soon" - which directly contradicts what Adobe itself says on this site. I also went to see a Mac Genius, who couldn't help either.
I have a 2GHz Macbook with 2GB RAM running 10.5.8. I've run the uninstall, and the Adobe Clean Script, I've repaired permissions on my drive (which isn't case sensitive), restarted, reinstalled, tried installing on an external drive and then tried downloading the trial, in case it's the install CD - nothing works.
Any suggestions, anyone? Might there be a problem with my library that is stopping the install? Something else?? I bought CS4 for InDesign primarily, this is not good.

InDesign CS4 Server Scripting duplicate()

Hi,
Just wondering anyone would be able to help me with this.
I am having problem with using duplicate() in a InDesign CS4 Server Javascript. It locks the InDesign instance while running the script and we have to unlock it by restarting the Server. Below is the offended script. Do anyone have any idea what is causing this? My head hurts...
var inlines = myDocument.stories.everyItem().pageItems.everyItem().getElements();
myDocument.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.millimeters;
myDocument.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.millimeters;
myDocument.viewPreferences.rulerOrigin = RulerOrigin.pageOrigin;
var myPage = myDocument.pages.item(0);
var myX = myPage.marginPreferences.left;
var myY = myPage.marginPreferences.top;
if(inlines.length==1){
inlines[0].duplicate([myX+37.75,myY+9.5]);
I have tried removed the x and y coordinates and run the script again with only duplicate(); it is still breaking the server. Can anyone help???? Hellllpppppp....
Cheers

That looks correct - InDesignServer is up & running, waiting for commands, or a control-c to quit.
InDesignServer.com is a shell app which launches InDesignServer.exe, so having both processes active is correct.
Once you have successfully serialized (as it appears you have), you should be able to restart either via the Windows service or at the command line without the '-serialnumber' parameter.

Adobe InDesign CS4 Phishing Scam

This may have been mentioned elsewhere on these forums, but I can't find it. I received an email this morning purporting to be from Adobe with a "user key" attached as a zip file:
Dear customer,
Your Adobe CS4 License key is in attached document below.
We encourage you to explore its new and enhanced capabilities with these helpful tips, tutorials, and eSeminars.
Thank you for buying Adobe InDesign CS4 software.
Adobe Systems Incorporated
[Attachment: License_key_#8567.zip]
Something else to watch out for. But you'd think at least they'd refer to the current version of the software.

OK. It didn't turn up with a search, but this related thread popped up once I posted:

Adobe InDesign CS4 ME (Middle Eastern Version) AND fonts

hello,
does someone know, which Fonts are in "Adobe Indesign CS4 ME (middle eastern version)" out-of-the-box (without Tasmeem!)?
We have real trouble to find out in advance, what kind of fonts are included or supported (or not).
thank you.
knuth

I'm not 100% sure on this answer, but this should at least be helpful:
The fonts in the InDesign fonts folder in CS4 are:
AlQudsWide_Bold.otf
Hasan_Hiba_Alef.otf
EMIRI.otf
Basim_Marah_Beh.otf
Nassim-Semibold.otf
Arabetics_Mehdi.otf
Nassim-Bold.otf
AlQudsWide_Regular.otf
Nassim-Medium.otf
DT_Qarandash_Beh.otf
NASKRG.otf
Nassim-Regular.otf
Hasan_Noor_Alef.otf
Nassim-Heavy.otf
There are others in the Adobe general fonts folder (most notably the extended family of Boutros Ads Pro), but I don't know if this was installed by CS4 or a previous version of InDesign. Here's a screenshot of the Arabic fonts currently installed on my system (none of them were purchased, and probably mostly installed by one of the Creative Suites).

Installing Adobe InDesign CS4.

I have previously purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 4. The discs are no longer working, and I need to re-install the programs onto my new computer. I have had this issue in the past and contacted Adobe to email me a link for me to download certain programs from the internet. I have my product code or key code still, but am not able to use the discs to re-install onto my new computer. Can you please send me a link so that I may install Adobe InDesign CS4 onto my new computer.
