Export Indesign Document to Incopy Document

Hi,
I need to export the Indesign Document(.indd) to Incopy Document(.incx).I have used the following code
app.documents[0].exportFile(ExportFormat.INCOPY_DOCUMENT, File("C:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe InDesign CS3/Scripts/test/Input_Output/test.incx"), false);
But it shows error like "The specified object doesn't support the desired export format".
Please suggest me.
Regards
Kumar

Could you send me a sample document (askoldich [at] yahoo [dot] com) so I could recreate the problem? I wrote this script for our own workflow and it has been working for us without any problems for about 9 months — probably your documents have a different set up than ours — I'd like to see what causes the error .

HOW TO EXPORT INDESIGN DOCUMENT TO RTF DOCUMENT?

I don't have any basic idea about, how to export indesign document to RTF document?,pls help me ...

I don't think you can, because in the UI you can only export to RTF (which is the closest to MS Word). Look into story commands.
If you want to write an entire new plugin that takes an ID document (rather than a single story) and exports it to Word, you'll have to iterate over each of the page items (and/or stories, etc.) in your document and write them out in a format that Word would understand.

Export indesign document to pdf white strokes around text

Hello there, I have this problem, I am exporting an indesign document to interactive pdf, and the problem seams to appear, when I open the created pdf in adobe reader x, it shows some of the text with white outlines, and the text looks very thick. When previewed in indesign, it looks perfect, text looks crisp. I also opened the pdf document with apples preview, and in preview it looks fine! But in adobe reader it looks horible, I tried adobe readers on other computers, and they all show up with the outline. What causes this anoying issue? plase help, thanks

We'd have to see the file to know for sure, but this sounds like a transparency flattening issue. Thickened text is indicative of it being converted to outlines, whcih can happen when it interacts with transparency. It's not clear if your white lines are around theindividual glyphs, or around the entire areas. The latter is also a common flattenign artifact called "stitching" that shows up on screen and in low resoution printing.
The first bit of advice is to keep your text at the top of the stacking order, above transparency, shadows, and other effects. It sometimes helps to have a top layer just for text. The way to eliminate these artifacts 100% of the time is to not flatten transparency at all, which is possible in Print PDFs, but alas, not in Interactive.

Problem export Indesign document to epub

I get the following message everytime when I try to export an Indesign document to epub.
" The file was exported but one or more problems were detected:
Resource: 1 missing
Macintosh HD:Ap…n
CS6.app:Contents:MacOS:template.css"
Can someone tell me what it means and what I can do to correct this.
Thanks
Regards
Claudine

Your InDesign CS6 file probably was created in an earlier version where the CSS file created was handled in a different way. It's associated with a "template.css" file that InDesign cannot find.
Choose File > Export > EPUB. Go to the Advanced panel. In the CSS Options section, select "template.css" in the Additional CSS section, and click Delete.

Cannot export InDesign document as small pdf

Need to export an InDesign multi-page document as a small pdf file for internet viewing.
Have tried in CC and CS6. Even though it's set to "Smallest File Size," the document is not compressed.
The interesting thing is that, with exactly the same document, sometimes it will be properly compressed and sometimes it won't (original document size: 31MB; Smallest File Size: 4 to 6MB). Have tried with the same document in both CC and CS6.
Any explanations or cures?

Dear Mylenium,
Thank you (I think) for your response. There was a similar post from early in July somewhere, and I had already followed all the suggested steps to no avail (as did the poster).
I solved the problem by deconstructing the document and extracting pages until I found the spread that was causing the difficulty. Prior to that, I had audited the space usage (in the pdf optimizer command) and found that the bulk of the megabytes were being used in shading instructions.
As a last resort, when I found the offending spread I imported the extracted pdf page into Photoshop, flattened the file thus rasterizing it, and exported it again as a Photoshop pdf.
I recombined the pages and ended up with a document that was suitable for our use.
I'm sorry I chose the wrong forum. This was the first time I'd ever posted anything. There are several Adobe applications that produce pdfs and aside from not really knowing where to go, wondered if the problem had been encountered in other applications.
I have been using InDesign in various forms since it was Aldus PageMaker. And this is not the only issue we've had with the CC software. We are discussing now whether to drop the Cloud membership when it expires and move to Quark. We are primarily print publishers with tight, tight deadlines. What we need is relatively reliable software that produces consistent results, not something that seems to be in a chronic state of BETA testing.

Exporting InDesign document to epub

InDesign exports documents to ePub. It works well.
But afterwards the document needs more formatting. I have read the Adobe document entitled 'Producing ePub Documents from InDesign' but I am not able to open the file (after unzipping the archive) so that any of the existing xhtml coding is visible.
Does anyone have any further documentation regarding producing ePub files?

From InDesign 6.0 to 6.0.3, there were issues with font embedding, but they were quite easily overcome by editing the EPUB file (see fix here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/330027). With 6.0.4, the font embedding feature is broken. Not all the type faces are copied into the Fonts folder. The CSS file doesn't reference all the type faces used and the encryption.xml file doesn't reference them either. It's possible to fix the EPUB file so that the fonts are embedded, but it's a huge pain, so stick with 6.0.3 if you're serious about EPUB publishing.
As for using the PDFXML Inspector, I wasn't detailed enough in my explanation (sorry to create that confusion). When you open an XML or XHTML file with PDFXML Inspector, extra breaks are inserted in order to make the code easier to read.
So the following code...
Ehene nemquunto tet, omnit untium aut aut molupta temquia saperum venis aut dit, conem dolut am cus rehendiatur? Ducitibusam et qui culpa dolum volore provitaque sit accum rerspelit fugia ped ma velicipsanis consequ aturibus dolum laut a dolest, cuptis es dolorro ma aliam sit optatur, eos alique se veris cus in repellabo. Aquiasp icaborerae. Nat as sum arum harchici audanis et verrore henimoluptas utecepuda ped que odignimo delit voluptatat quosa etur?
becomes...

The line breaks are rendered as spaces in the EPUB file, which is not always a problem. But it can be a problem, for example, if a bold word is followed by a period at the end of a sentence. In that case, an extra space will be added between the bold word and the period.
I just discovered that you can overcome this issue if you turn off the "Pretty Printing" option by choosing View > XML > Pretty Printing. Do this before opening an EPUB file and making edits to it.
So thanks to Jeremy, I looked into PDFXML Inspector a little deeper and now I recommend it for editing EPUB files! It's not as user-friendly and robust as a professional XML editor, but it gets the job done for free.

Exporting Indesign document into PDF

I have a worklow of 410 pages 13"x13" made entirely of photos. The work is in progress but I want to make a presentation of what has been done so far. I opted for exporting to PDF only screen and web visible and that worked fine. But when I tried to export the full version as if for pre-press, the exporting loaded the 410 pages and then collapsed saying, this document cannot be exporting to PDF.
What could be the problem? the extent of the work? the size of the file? missing links? wrong settings? Thanks for your help.

Probably file size and memory (or lack there of). Your machine has to load all the data for each picture, maybe re-res it to the PDF setting you specify, save the file. ID might need to have access to several GB of memory.
I'd suggest breaking it into maybe 100 page chunks. I bet each PDF file will still be nearly 100mb each! You could use Acrobat to combine them into one PDF file. But talk with your printer, they might be able to easily work with a couple smaller files for you. A 400mb PDF is pretty large (not impossible, just unusual).

Export InDesign Document to PDF-Clipped Error

When I export an InDesign file to Interactive PDF, I get the following message.
I've tried everything I can think of. What is the resolution?
Brooke ...

The only answer is to not clip the interactive elements, and to always have them on the top layer. That's how the files will end up anyway. Because, as the message says-- the PDF format cannot reproduce what you did in an interactive file.

Application to export InDesign document to pdf or image

Hello,
We are developing a java web-app and the user (among other things) download an InDesign file from the server, edit it, and upload it again, but we need a way to show, inside our web-app, a preview of the file, and also we need our application to be able to send that preview to the printer, inside a form.
So I wish to know if is there some application to convert InDesign files to pdf or some image format, like jpg, png, etc., that we could call from our web-app, throught the command line.
Thanks.

Correct way to export InDesign content to InCopy HELP!

I know this must be a bonehead question because I've done it right in the past, but now I'm stumped.
I have an INDD file with a main story and many graphics. I want to export the story to ICML so an editor can work on the document in InCopy.
So I select the story, and go Edit-->InCopy-->Export-->Selection. The icml gets created as expected. But now things diverge:
when I go to another machine with InCopy, I can open the ICML with InCopy, but I only see the story, not the whole layout. I want my editor to see editable text and uneditable graphics.
What obvious thing am I overlooking here?

Oh yes, now I remember!
You export the stories as described, but you must open the INDD file from InCopy not the ICML file.
Too much July 4 fun has clearly muddled my thinking.

Export book / document from InDesign CC to CS6

Is there any way to export an entire book (indb) file and import it in version CS6?
The only way we found is to export each document as IDML, which should in theory allow us to open it in CC. But that doesn't help us for the book. Maybe there's a plugin or something?
Also, exporting as IDML doesn't work for the document we need it for, it gets stuck at 65 %. I tried opening an older version (that opens in CS6) and exporting it from CS6, but that doesn't work either.
So is there another way to move the file to CS6 while keeping the format and layout intact?

There is no interchange format for .indb files, nor would it help since the .indb would continue to point to the original .indd component files. You must export each .indd to .idml, then open those in the earlier version and save as new .indd files and add to a new .indb Book file. You can use Peter Kahrel's batch conversion tool to make the .idml files: Free script Batch convert/export InDesign documents | Peter Kahrel

Export InDesign File Peices

I am working with an InDesign file and would like to be able to programatically work with the content after the document has been created. Is there any way to export InDesign documents to a text based format which has the coordinates of the content within the file. Essentially I'm looking for a way to grab the links out of the file along with their positions and sizes.

Good morning.
Most of the time, people who want to programmatically work with InDesign using it's scripting features. It has a very detailed object model that is scriptable in JavaScript in a cross-platform fashion, and also in AppleScript on Macs and VBscript under Windows. It's generally the best way to accomplish automation tasks, rather than trying to parse InDesign's files.
That said, you can export to IDML (in CS4 and CS5), or to INX in CS3. Both are XML-based formats where you can pull out individual objects and their coordinates. INX is an XML file directly. IDML is actually a ZIP archive of multiple XML files. Adobe provides documentation for both.
