Adobe Indesign CS6(8.0) there is no Paragraph and Character directions

Hi, I have Adobe Indesign CS6(8.0) Windows 7. Where can I see the Paragraph and Character directions? I followed tutorials on the net but I can't find the paragraph and character directions. It's not like it's grayed, but the 2 options weren't there. Thanks!

We are using InDesign CS6 version 8.1.
When I refer to the "old" libraries I am referring to InDesign libraries that were created using InDesign CS2 back in 2006, and "new" libraries are libraries created using InDesign CS6 in 2014.
I just found out that the library assets in the "new" libraries were created by opening a document and dragging items from the Structure panel onto the Library panel.
This is why the script was having problems placing the asset on to a document and the root of the problem. This should not have been done.
I just created a new library and added a library asset by opening a document with pageitems on it and clicking on the New Library button on the Library Panel. I then ran my script and everything worked.
Sorry for the confusion. There seems to have been some misunderstanding within our team.
Nevertheless it was a great learning experience.  Thanks for your help.

  • Adobe InDesign CS6 (8.0) Asset.placeAsset(document) getting undefined

    UPDATE:
    I commented out the addpage line and the script ran without any issues. So the error seems to come about when adding a page and then adding the library asset to it. So the question seems to lie in , "how to add a library asset on a new page?" The code below seemed to work with CS2.
    Hi - We wrote .jsx scripts for the CS2 version of InDesign. We now have InDesign CS6. When we run the scripts we get the following error:
    The basic function of the script is to import an xml file, select a library, get a specific asset from the library and then adds it to the document.
    This is the section of code in the .jsx file that is generating the error; line 204 is generating the error
    I've checked both theTemplate and myDocument objects at the time of execution and they are both valid objects.
    I have no idea why it would throw an undefined is not an object error message? I've scoured the internet and I am unable to find anything related to this matter and the guy who wrote the scripts has left the the company. Any help in the right direction is greatly appreciated.
    Also, this question was already asked in the Indesign forum, and they suggested I should ask this question here after no solution was found.

  • Can we get Adobe InDesign CS6 and use CS5?

    Hi There,
    We currently have 4 license of InDesign CS5 that comes with Adobe Creative Suite CS5.
    Also an Adobe Product Premium CS5.5. We now need to get an extra license for InDesign CS5 for the Adobe Product Premium CS5.5 machine.
    I noticed Adobe now sells CS6 versions only. Can we get Adobe InDesign Cs6 and have down grade right to use InDesign CS5?
    Best Regards/Allen Chen

    Alternatively move to Creative Cloud.
    But that means buying cloud subscriptions for all seats so everyone is on the same version rather than buying one seat to downgrade. I agree that inthe long run this is probably a better solution, but it may cost more up front.

  • Adobe Indesign CC "includes" Adobe Indesign CS6?

    Hi,
    is it correct that when I buy Adobe Indesign CC, I have free access ansd use of Adobe Indesign CS6?
    My problem is that I still have Adobe Indesign CS3, but the typographie I am going to work with is only going to receive the files for printing in CS6. Because there is alreay a CC, I don´t want to buy CS6 only for one project.
    It is going to be a big project, so I am not going to do it in four weeks trial version time for CS6.
    I appreciate your answers

    Thank you for the information.
    Maybe you can also tell me, if CS3, CS6 and CC an be installed at the same time on the same computer?

  • Adobe Indesign CS6 Fonts issue

    Dear Support,
    We have performed a re-installation of Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
    We also had to re-install Microsoft Office Home and Business 2010 as well as Adobe Indesign CS6 and Photoshop CS6.
    We have installed all Windows Updates and all Adobe updates.
    The problem we are experiencing is that Arial Narrow is detected by Indesign as a seperate font and not a family font.
    This in turn is causing issues as we cannot select Arial Narrow Bold, Arial Narrow Bold Italic and Arial Narrow Italic.
    The version of the font is 2.37.
    I have read on previous posts that there are issues with font version 2.35 which is installed with Microsoft Office 2007 and there is a hotfix on Microsoft's website.
    We cannot use this as stated above we use Microsoft Office Home and Business 2010.
    Please inform if there is a hotfix to run from Adobe's Website or from Microsoft to resolve the above issue.
    All assistance is much appreciated.
    Kindest Regards.

    Moving to Indesign forum.
    Regards,

  • Will Adobe indesign cs6 books work with the adobe indesign creative cloud version?

    Will Adobe indesign cs6 books work with the adobe indesign creative cloud version?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I think, this question is a very good one.
    If I have a *.indb document created in CS6, populated with InDesign documents from CS6, what to do, if I want to migrate my workflow to the latest version of InDesign CC-2014?
    Short answer (avoiding trouble and headaches):
    1. Convert all your InDesign documents from CS6 to CC-2014 (*)
    2. Use NEW document file names for all your CC-2014 InDesign file types: *indd, *indt, *indl
    3. Build your *indb documents for CC-2014 anew.
    4. Use NEW document file names for CC-2014 InDesign file type: *indb
    But isn't that a tedious task to do?
    Yes. But fortunately there are some scripts around helping you with the conversion process.
    See Peter Kahrel's website. Especially:
    Free script Batch convert/export InDesign documents | Peter Kahrel
    There are others as well…
    Uwe
    *Before migration of the workflow batch export all InDesign CS6 documents to IDML and PDF.

  • How do I get Adobe InDesign CS6 to export non-pixelated PNGs?

    I am having trouble exporting PNGs from Adobe Indesign. The problem is they become very pixelated once they have been exported to PNG. However, when I export to JPEG, there is no pixelation, they look perfect! Has anyone else had this problem?
    I need to export them as PNGs because some pages have transparency effects, which JPEG doesn't support.
    Is this a bug in Adobe InDesign CS6? Is it a configuration option that I can change?
    Below I have provided sample screenshots of the JPEG and PNG files, along with the export settings I used.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    To demonstrate this problem, I've uploaded a sample InDesign project which still exhibits the same PNG export problem:
    Click here to download my sample InDesign project.
    If anyone is able to generate a non-pixelated PNG from this sample InDesign project, please let me know how you did it.

  • ID Install -  Can't open the application Adobe InDesign CS6 because it may be damaged or incomplete.

    Trying to install inDesign CS6 on my imac. But everytime I try at end of install I either get a problem with install error, or if it does show up in my applications folder, it has a "no" sign and when clicked I get:
    "You can't open the application Adobe InDesign CS6 because it may be damaged or incomplete."
    Need help, Im a freelance desktop publisher and need this to work!

    After I deleted Adobe File Manager because it was always popping up annoyingly, I got a similar "damaged application - reinstall" message. However, InDesign didn't seem to be affected. Nevertheless, I reinstalled AFM, and fixed the problem, except for the annoying appearances of AFM.
    If it's not present on your system, you can search Google for "download adobe application manager mac" without quotes, to download and install it.

    Hi Steve.W,
    Thanks for reaching out to us .
    As per the logs it looks like that certain processes are running the background which is causing the installation to fail . Lets do two things here,
    1) Restart the machine and try again.
    2) Check if you have admin priveldges on the machine.
    Please do let us know if this works for you or not.
    Cheers,

  • Adobe InDesign CS6 Has stopped working error message

    Hi,
    I have Adobe InDesign CS6 on Windows 7 64 bits Enterprise Edition
    When I open a document and try to export the document to pdf my indesign crash whith following message "Adobe inDesign CS6 has stopped working"
    It happens on some docuemnts but now all documents.
    Please help.

    Was that a typo and you meant NOT all documents?
    Windows isn't quite as easy to diagnose crashes as Mac becuase it doen't providet he same crash reports, so we pretty much have to play Twenty Questions...
    Let's start with some basic troubleshooting. Presuming this is isolated to just some files, start with this: Remove minor corruption by exporting
    If that doesn't work, can you export half of the doc at a time?
    Create a new user account onthe machine and log in using that. Are you able to export the document to PDF without a crash?

  • Adobe Indesign CS6 not finding fonts

    Dear Support,
    Adobe Indesign is not detecting the font arial narrow bold, narrow italic, please can you inform what to do.
    I have reinstalled the font in the windows\fonts folder restarted and still experience issues.
    I have reinstalled adobe indesign cs6 and still no luck.
    Please get back to me.
    Kindest Regards.

    Hi Jan Lotz,
    You should keep the font arial narrow bold, narrow italic in the same folder where you keep your indesign file. Then open the indesign file hope it will work.
    Good luck!
    Not true. At the very same place as the InDesign document is saved should be a folder with the name "Document fonts" and in this folder you have to put all fonts.
    You should also take care if the font family include a font with these styles and is compatible to your OS. Best practice is to use OTF fonts.
