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.

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

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.

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!).

Missing font makes Adobe InDesign CS4 6.0.4 crash

Hi!
I am having a problem with the latest version of Adobe InDesign CS4 (v 6.0.4).
I opened an old document which contained two missing fonts.
I was able to correct the first one by changing it to an existing font.
But when I tried to correct the second one, the application crashed.
I did this:
1. Opened the document with the missing font (the first font was now already corrected).
2. In the warning dialog window saying a font was missing, I clicked "Find Font".
3. The missing font was called "Helvetica (T1) Bold Narrow". I set it to be replaced by "Helvetica Regular".
4. Then I clicked "Change All".
5. Indesign CS4 crashes.
This is the information about the missing font (note that it says "First Used: na" which is strange):
Filename: <not installed>
Full Name: Helvetica
First Used: NA
Font: Helvetica (T1) Bold Narrow
PostScript Name: Helvetica-Narrow-Bold
Style: Bold Narrow
Type: Type 1
Version:
Restrictions: Unkonwn (Font is missing)
Path: Unknown (Font is missing)
Character Count: 27
Style Count: 0
Styles:
Page: none
Does anyone have a solution, or is this a bug?
Thanks

Hi! Thanks for your answer.
I am using Windows XP (SP3).
I tried to export my INDD file (ID CS4 format) to an INX file.
But that also made InDesign crash (perhaps because of the font thing).
Unfortunately I can't change the missing font of the text because:
* I can't see the text frame that contains the missing font.
* InDesign crashes when using the "Find Font" function.
However, this is not a big problem, I can still work with the file. But I will
always get the annoying warning about the missing font, and I prefer to
have no errors in my INDD files.

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.

Adobe InDesign CS4 Debug WIN Installation

I need to port an InDesign CS3 plugin to InDesign CS4. In order to do that I've installed the Adobe InDesign CS4 Debug WIN but when I'm trying to start the application I receive the following error message in German: "Diese Anwendung konnte nicht gestartet werden, weil die Anwendungskonfiguration nicht korrekt ist. Zur Problembehebung sollten Sie die Anwendung neu installieren.". In english this should mean something like "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Try to reinstall the application.".
The box I've tried installing on has visual studio C++ 2005 SP1 and InDesign CS3 Debug already installed (which works fine). I've looked through the requirements in the "InDesign® CS4 Read Me" and couldn't find anything that I'm missing.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Folks,
ID CS4 Debug and ID CS3 Debug can be installed on the same system. The likely reason that the CS4 version is giving that error is because the CS4 version needs some Visual Studio 2005 SP1 DLLs that aren't installed on the computer.
I believe that there are a couple of ways to fix this. One is to install Visual Studio 2005 SP1 (the recommended setup for CS4 plug-in development). When you install SP1 the DLLs needed by ID CS4 Debug will be installed. The other way, I think, is to not SP1, but install the release version of ID CS4 on your system. I understand that the ID CS4 Release version installer will install the DLLs needed by the debug version.
However, if you use VS2005 (no SP1 installed) for CS4 plug-in development you will not be using the recommended development environment for CS4. But if you install SP1, and you want to develop plug-ins for CS3, you will not be using the recommended development environment for CS3 plug-in development. Go figure.
Please note that once you install VS2005 SP1, any plug-ins that you compile will be looking for the SP1 version of the C/C++ Runtime DLLs when the plug-in is launched. The needed DLLs will be on your development system, so everything will seem fine when you test your CS3 plug-ins on your development computer. But when the plug-in is launched on a machine without the SP1 DLLs installed, the plug-in will not run.
I'm not sure of the best way to deal with this (I'm mainly a Mac guy), but there was a thread here entitled
Visual Studio 2005 SP1 about this issue a while back. This thread was partially deleted due to a forum software problem, and one of the ideas that was mentioned was lost from the message thread. Below are the useful (IMHO) missing messages (sent to me by Dirk Becker), who follows the forum using email.
[Ugh! I told Dirk I would write up a Wiki entry for this, but work happened and I haven't gotten to this yet. :-( ]

MISSING MESSAGES FROM THE THREAD: "[IDCS3 WIN] Visual Studio 2005 SP1"
=========
FROM: Eugenio Andres
Hi Jim,
From your original error message, the problem is most likely with the installation of the C/C++ SP1 runtime DLL on the machine that does not have the compiler. It's not so simple nowadays as copying over the DLLs, because Microsoft invented the side-by-side system, that allows having several versions of the same file on one machine.
Your options are installing the runtime on each machine (a package for that is available from Microsoft Download) or changing your project to the static runtime ("Multithreaded" instead of "Multithreaded DLL"). I always use static linking in plugins with no problems, although Adobe specifies dynamic in their instructions, but you avoid these "DLL hell" problems.

Eugenio Andres - www.ExpertosInformaticos.com

FROM: Jim Birkenseer
Hi Eugenio,
Thanks for the information.
So, are you saying that I simply have to go into my Plug-In's property page in VS2005 SP1 and change the C/C++ Code Generation from Multi-threaded DLL (/MD) to Multi-threaded (/MT) and rebuild the project? What are the downsides of doing this--or are there any?
<...SNIP...>
-- Jim
=========
=========
FROM: Eugenio Andres
Hi Jim,
You're welcome.
Yes, that project change should do it. The difference is that with the "DLL" version, your plugin loads the C/C++ runtime shared library (DLL) at runtime and calls it for any needed functions (like strcpy, malloc, etc.). Without the "DLL", the linker puts the C/C++ runtime code directly into your plugin and you don't need the C/C++ runtime SP1 DLL (the error you're getting is because your plugin required the DLL and it's not found on that machine).
The C++ SP1 runtime shared library is different from the C++ non-SP1 library InDesign uses. In this new Windows "side-by-side" scheme, both can live together.
If you use the exact same C/C++ runtime that Adobe uses, then that library is physically shared and it allows to do some "risky" things as e.g. allocating memory in one module (e.g. InDesign) and freeing it in another (e.g. your plugin). But this is usually not recommended and I don't think Adobe is doing it (but then it's only my impression from the code structure).
Anyhow, from the moment you use the SP1 compiler, you're not sharing the runtime any more with InDesign, so it doesn't matter if you compile "MultiThreaded" instead of "MultiThreaded DLL". The difference between these is the size of the plugin and the easyness of distribution, and without DLL you miss possible "automatic" updates of the C++ runtime DLL (because the C/C++ runtime code is embedded in your plugin), but lately new versions of the C/C++ runtime become "different" DLLs, as you can see, so that's not so relevant any more - or if it's critical, you can always recompile your plugin and redistribute if needed.
You can find a brief description of SP1 in
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/aa718695.aspx
It looks like minor non-breaking changes to me, but one never knows...

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).

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.

Cannot open "filename" because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.0).

I updated my whole cloud last week. Now I can't open a InDesign document saved just the day before. I get the error message:
Cannot open “filename” because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.0).
Cannot open “filename” because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.0). You must use that version or later to open the file. To then enable it to be opened in this version, choose save as InDesign CS4 or later, or export to IDML.
This is a document that I created in InDesign CC just last week.

Hi Robert,
To open an INDD file in the older version (CS4-CC), you need to save it as an IDML. For CS3 & older versions, save it as an INX.
Thanks

Adobe InDesign CS4 Phishing Scam

Adobe InDesign CS4 fonts - where'd they go?

Using a PC. I work for a municipal govt which finally upgraded me from adobe CS to CS4 this past year. I mostly use InDesign for my work publications and was thrilled to have some new fonts with the new CS4 on my system (fonts like Baveuse, Blue Highway, Burnstown Dam, Carbon Block, Kredit, Earwig Factory, Hurry Up, Planet Benson2, Teen, Pupcat and more).
But within the last month, all of these particular fonts (and others) have totally disappeared. I can't use them at all in InDesign now. So how do I get them back? Were these particular fonts on a certain install disk? My IT dept reinstalled the entire suite yesterday, but it didn't bring back the missing fonts...
Also where are fonts supposed to be stored on my computer? (If they are supposed to be in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS4\Fonts - there's nothing in this folder at all.)
I am by no means an expert with CS4, so if you can give me any help, please give it to me in layperson terms. I'm trying to do the best I can here. I appreciate your responses in advance. Thanks!

Also where are fonts supposed to be stored on my computer? (If they are supposed to be in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS4\Fonts - there's nothing in this folder at all.)
Well, you can put fonts there, just by dragging them off the disks and dropping them in to that folder - if you do that, then InDesign can use the fonts, but no other programs will be able to do so.
You didn't say which version of Windows you were using, but if you're using Windows 7, you can right-click on any font file and choose "Install" depending on your system settings. That will make the fonts available to all the programs on your computer, not just InDesign. If your IT department understands that you're an InDesign user who needs to be able to install fonts, that method will work. If it doesn't work, it'll give you an error message that is probably NOT "Hey, you're not allowed to install fonts" but "These font files are corrupt." If you see that, it probably means that your IT department has not given you the power of installing fonts, which means they'd need to do it.
In Windows XP, you actually have to navigate to the Fonts folder (Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Fonts) and then choose File -> Install Font.

Adobe InDesign CS4 + Mathtype, ps2pdf conversion problem

Dear All,
We have typset the pages using the Adobe InDesign CS4 + MathType 6.0 using the Macintosh. We are facing the problem PS to PDF converion, the error message is:

The fonts were used on the Math is Euclid Symbol. Whereas, my deliverable product is application file, equations, images and PDF (which converted using their distiller setting). It would be great if any one can suggest how to overcome this problem!
Thanks
Gunasekaran

I don't remember seeing this exact problem, but I've had numerous issues with Indesign CS4 / MathType. (Though it really blew up in CS5, which no longer recognizes the obliqued Symbol font used by MathType, and replaces it with a generic font). Design Science told me that their next update -- which is waiting on the next update to MS Word for Mac, originally due this fall -- would fix the problems, and I wish them much luck.
First, I'd try Exporting to PDF rather than going through a PS file stage. It's generally more reliable.
I'd also clean out the font caches from Indesign CS.
If that doesn't work, examine your computer closely for different versions of the Symbol font. There's probably one in the system library from Apple, one or two in your User library (like the Truetype and Postscript versions that came with MathType), maybe one a gift from Microsoft, and probably one in the Adobe applications folders as well. Unfortunately, they're all slightly different. Conflicts between these may be causing your trouble. Delete or remove all but one, and see if your applications still run -- you probably want to open and save each equation from MathType using the "new" font, then update links in Indesign after each change, so working on a test document with one equation would be best. If one font works, stick with that one.
I'm sincerely hoping that in the next version of MathType we'll be able to use OpenType fonts for the Greek characters -- Symbol has gotten pretty buggy over the years.
