Creating workflow using InDesign with XML

What is the fastest and most accurate way to make a workflow from a XML file with Indesign?
Lets say we will make a school yearbook with about 30 pages. each page has 20 portraits of students with their name beneath each image.
The XML files is generatet from a home-made XML-creator and got student information from databases.
I have heard of easy way to do this with Indesign and templates, snippets and maybe a script.
Can anyone tell me step by step how to, or does anyone know of a tutorial movie etc?
thanx

Also if any one has any thoughts on creating a front end using XML files, pros cons etc??? Just prototyping and wondering should i do down this road!!

  • XSLT and generated text using InDesign with xml

    I have recently switched from Framemaker to InDesign and am still getting to grips with the differences so apologies if this is a very basic query.
    Framemaker was used to format sgml tagged text. You could specify that a particular tag generated a prefix or suffix. You could also specify that the tag should generate the prefix or suffix only under certain circumstances (context rules). The prefixes and suffixes I need to apply are things like open and closing brackets, commas, full stops, and sometimes a bit of text.
    I am told that this can be done with XSLT. There are whole libraries of books on XSLT out there and not knowing anything about the subject I really don't know where to start. Does anyone out there who uses InDesign with xml and XSLT have any tips about where to find useful information on the subject?
    Thanks in advance for any help on the subject.
    Steven

    Yeah, we use to have such feature wayback then. Indesign package into GoLive.  Kindly look through the idea section and vote massively for this idea.

    Any idea or thought on this would be appreciable.
    Thanks in advance.

    Did you change any of the text in the lob write statements ?
    I believe you get this error if you increase the number of characters without increasing the 1st argument which looks as though it represents the number of characters

    Hi All,
    please note that we found the problem. The problem was that we didn't configure under:
    "Configuration-> Security -> Message Security -> SOAP" the voprrect provider to handle the security.
    After that was done (extract of domain.xml) the message was understood.
    <provider-config class-name="com.sun.identity.agents.jsr196.as9soap.AMServerAuthModule" provider-id="AMServerProvider-UserNameToken-Plain" provider-type="server">
                <request-policy auth-source="content"/>
                <response-policy auth-source="content"/>
                <property name="providername" value="UserNameToken-Plain"/>
              </provider-config>unfortunately the next problem occured I will post in a new thread.

  • Created Graphics Using InDesign's Drawing Tools

    Hello,
    I Created Graphics Using InDesign’s Drawing Tools, but when I published to Kindle or EPUB, the graphics do not appear?  All other raster images that are on the same page appear in Kindle Previewer.  Is there a hidden button I must enable for Graphics created with InDesign’s own tools to get them to publish to Kindle?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    iaustin

    I tried your suggestions(group, achor) and it still did not resolve my Kindle image issue.
    I also tried exporting to EPUB format and the InDesign created images appear as drawn.
    I conclude that have a Kindle ONLY related issue. (Tried in both PC Kindle and Amazon previewers).
    I wonder what else can I try?
    Can you clarify your statement... "but at least one line above where the images are visible?"

  • What is the Design to Deployment Workflow using DW with WordPress?

    I am a Designer and Developer/programmer. This is a complete workflow question: What is the Design to Deployment Workflow using DW with WordPress? For example, is it:
    PS/IL > DW > WP? (Photoshop or Illustrator, Dreamweaver, WordPress?)
    Or is Edge Reflow inserted between PS and DW?
    PS > ER > DW > WP?
    Are these workflows iterative and, whats the word, recursive - we are able to go back and forth?
    My understanding is that the Edge tools are not up to the coding standards of DW, and ER > DW (Edge Reflow to Dreamweaver) is not seamless or even practical.
    Where does the Stack come in? MAMP (or LAMP/WAMP) of course, jQuery/jQuery UI, WordPress and other items; how integrated are these things?
    I used to be a Flex developer and quite comfortable with the Design to Dynamic Deployment workflow of Illustrator or Photoshop to Flash Catalyst to Flash Builder; moreover, I thought the Eclipse IDE was excellent with its database introspection capabiliities, debugging etc. Adobe really pushed this workflow, then instead of innovating and standing behind its own product with 98% market penetration, Adobe disembowelled Flash right before everyones eyes.
    What about Prototyping, which is certainly part of the process? Fireworks is on the kibosh. Illustrator, while excelling at some aspects falls short of making a functional prototype (unless you're tying in Acrobat to link the pages), and while Photoshop is Edge Reflows darling, Edge seems redundant with DW and spits out twacky code.
    (Muse of course is unusable for professional developers, but it makes you wonder why some of those UI elements where not employed in DW whose interface seems antiquated by comparison).
    It seems Adobe is bloody all over the place, more like a rabbing drunk with a microphone rather than the dependable go-to software company for creatives the world over.
    In my opinion, workflow from beginning to end is important. Having a million different options to try to accomodate everyone is not. Some guidance in this department is greatly appreciated!
    Best,
    Dylan

    I have not used Edge Reflow myself.  Nor do I espically like WordPress.  But my typical workflow is:
    PS for Design Concept and web images.
    DW for CSS, HTML & JavaScript.
    3rd party editors like Zend Studio & Navicat for PHP & MySql development.

  • How we create workflow using sharepoint designer for first review the documnet than go for approve the document.

    Hi to all
    I have team site in site collection under this i have Shared Document library. Now i want to create the workflow for the shared Document library. How i will create workflow using sharepoint designer for first review the documnet than go for approve
    the document.

    Hi ,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to create a workflow which contains review and approval process.
    For implemening your requirement, you can create a workflow containing two steps. The first step is used to collect user information and set workflow variables, and the second step is used to verify whether the reviewer approve. If the reviewers complete
    approving, a pproval workflow is started. The whole workflow is like :

  • How can I create Droplets using Actions with several Stops?

    My Droplets (using Actions but with several Stops) work very nicely when using a single image source. However when using multiple images thing start to go crazy.
    At the first stop on the first image a pop-up emerges asking me to continue to the next image or stop. If I select stop I can continue with the Action for this first image and complete the Action on that first photo.
    If I select continue it halts the action on that photo at the first stop then opens the 2nd image and repeats the action to the first stop on the next photo then the pop-up appears again and the cycle repeats.
    How can I create Droplets using Actions with several Stops?

    I don't believe this is possible when starting from Java. I think you need to start with a WSDL to get this to work. I am curious as to why having multiple WSDLs is an issue, would you care to eloborate.
    Thanks

  • Creating Murals Using InDesign CS6

    We often use InDesign for creating seamless multi-panel murals, i.e. a 6 panel flow wall where each panel could be considered a 'tile' (like tiles in a RIP), suppose 40" x 96" each done at 25% scale. 
    The problem arises when using a spread where either pages are different sizes or when resizing all pages, viz: either an undesirable gap or overlap is created between panels. 
    We prefer using InDesign for this because there may fifty=plus logos or other images placed thereupon, and using Illustrator would become tedious.
    What solutions are there?
    Thanks!

    As i understand, if your panels at the same height you can create a new document with 6 page with the  size scaled to 25%, then on page panel: unckeck AllowDocumet Pages to Shuffle. Drag the pages to be side to side, and that make the total width of you mural
    When you export to pdf, on general tab check on all pages & spreads

  • Using LoadVars with XML data

    All the examples in the text books, etc. show the LoadVars
    object being used with a .txt file. Can I use it with a .xml file
    or not? I have tried but the output panel just shows rubbish
    data!

    LoadVars is not XML. You need to get a textbook that
    discusses XML and
    Flash.
    The Flash documentation has excellent example for both
    LoadVars and XML.
    LoadVars:
    http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00002336.html
    XML:
    http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00002879.html
    With XML you have the additional task of parsing out the
    data.

  • Is it possible to create indexes & use them on xml docs with namespaces?

    I have put an XML doc in a BDBXML container which looks like this:
    *<ns1:note xmlns:ns1="http://www.testsch.org/ns">*
    *<ns1:to>Eric</ns1:to>*
    *<ns1:from>Brendan</ns1:from>*
    *<ns1:msg>How r u?</ns1:msg>*
    *</ns1:note>*
    Now, I am creating an index on the element "to", as:
    addIndex "ns1" "to" node-element-equality-string
    Though the index has been shown as getting created using the listIndexes command, if I lookup that index with the following command:
    lookupIndex node-element-equality-string "ns1" "to"
    the output is:
    *0 objects returned for eager index lookup 'node-element-equality-string'*
    Whereas, if I do the whole procedure without the namespaces in the document & the commands, the result is fine:
    *1 object returned for eager index lookup 'node-element-equality-string'*
    Can someone please tell me whether using namespaces, the indexes can be created or not? If yes, how?
    Thanks,
    Dev
    Edited by: user11871332 on Sep 7, 2009 3:53 PM

    Hi Dev,
    When using XML, the prefix for the namespace is really just syntactic sugar. The actual namespace in your example is "http://www.testsch.org/ns", and that's the value that you need to use when creating your index:
    addIndex "http://www.testsch.org/ns" "to" node-element-equality-stringJohn
