Export or Rename PDFs with title based on content

I haven't done any scripting in Indesign before but it was suggested I pose this question to the scripting forum.
I created a template document using the Data Merge feature of Indesign. I used the template and Data Merge to create a file that has 700+ pages and each page really needs to be a stand alone document.
I know if I just use the export feature I can export each page as its own eps file. The problem is that when I do that they all have the same file name with a sequential number to differentiate them.
Is their a way to use one of the line items that is derived from the data merge file to name the files.
Basically, each of these pages is a different production part and rather than having 700+ files that are named prodpart_xxx.eps I would like to have each be named after its part number that can be found in the original excel file.

var doc=app.activeDocument;<br />var pg = doc.pages;<br />for(i=0; i<pg.length; i++)<br />{<br />   app.epsExportPreferences.pageRange = String(pg[i].name);<br />   //maybe String is not useful, try without String() if you get a error<br />   var myName = pg[i].textFrames.item("AON").parentStory.contents;<br />   //i or 0, don't know, you know ;-)<br />   var myDirectory = "/Users/admin/Desktop/test/";<br />   var myFile = new File(myDirectory + myName + ".eps");<br />   doc.exportFile(ExportFormat.epsType, myFile, false);<br />}

  • Export single-page pdfs with page name

    I've been looking for a script that:
    - exports every page of an indesign file to a seperate single-page pdf (or other filetypes)
    - names the pdf with the name of a page -> this is the hard part to find
    The reason i could use it: i have a 200+ page file with productspecs. I would like to export every page with the correct productname. (extracting pdfs in acrobat is not a problem, but then i have to manually rename every file)
    I'm not sure how to name the pages, as it's not a function in indesign. Ideal would be to be able to "tell" indesign: this textframe = the pagename, so it wouldn't be necessary to label the page seperately.
    I'm not a scripter. I searched the forum and found some info on this already, but not a working script including automatic pagenaming.
    I did found an old post where someone points to such a script, but i can't find it:
    http://www.techplex.net/postsm40018_possible-to-name-pages.html#post40018
    Did anyone ever made/found/used such a script?
    (btw, a similar script for illustrator artboards would be very useful too!)
    Any help appreciated!

    scott zanelli made one years ago. does a fantastic job.

  • Unable to create a complate PDF (with title page, toc, chapter, backmatter, index) from a valid ditamap

    Following is the ditamap i am using to create the PDF. This has booktitle, front matter, toc, chapter and backmatter. I am able to generate a PDF (complete with title page, toc, chapter, backmatter, index) using fop 0.25. However, when I try to create a pdf in FM 9.0, I get only the chapter. How can get the others through FM 9.0. Please provide a solution.

    Unfortunately, default FM9 DITA does not support the automatic creation of the special bookmap files (toc, index, etc.). The only way to do it in FM9 is to manually add those generated lists to the book after you've generated it.
    DITA-FMx 1.1 provides the ability to automatically create FM generated lists as well as apply numbering and pagination (and many other properties) automatically when you generate a book from a bookmap. For more info and to download a trial ..

  • Exporting to a PDF with facing pages

    Please help, I have encounter a problem with InDesign CS4, which I didn't have with CS3 version.
    When I export an InDesign document with facing pages into a PDF, it turns it into a PDF document with consecutive pages (spreads are broken into individual pages). I want to keep the facing pages format in PDF as well.
    My document is an online newsletter, which can be printed on an office printer. Pages are letter size for convenience
    Now, I tried to check "Spreads" in the export to PDF dialogue box and what happened is that Acrobat resized spreads containing 2 facing letter-size pages onto a single letter size page. The cover appears and prints fine, but all the spreads are downsized.
    What am I doing wrong????

    Thank you very much, I went into Acorbat's file-properties and set it up there and it worked!
    but for some reason I never had to change settings in Acrobat with InDesign CS3 documents

  • Applescript or workflow to extract text from PDF and rename PDF with the results

    Hi Everyone,
    I get supplied hundreds of PDFs which each contain a stock code, but the PDFs themselves are not named consistantly, or they are supplied as multi-page PDFs.
    What I need to do is name each PDF with the code which is in the text on the PDF.
    It would work like this in an ideal world:
    1. Split PDF into single pages
    2. Extract text from PDF
    3. Rename PDF using the extracted text
    I'm struggling with part 3!
    I can get a textfile with just the code (using a call to BBEDIT I'm extracting the code)
    I did think about using a variable for the name, but the rename functions doesn't let me use variables.

    Hello
    You may also try the following applescript script, which is a wrapper of rubycocoa script. It will ask you choose source pdf files and destination directory. Then it will scan text of each page of pdf files for the predefined pattern and save the page as new pdf file with the name as extracted by the pattern in the destination directory. Those pages which do not contain string matching the pattern are ignored. (Ignored pages, if any, are reported in the result of script.)
    Currently the regex pattern is set to:
    /HB-.._[0-9]{6}/
    which means HB- followed by two characters and _ and 6 digits.
    Minimally tested under 10.6.8.
    Hope this may help,

  • Export reports as pdf with a dynamic name

    Hi all,
    I am fairly new at APEX and this sums my situation and questions.
    I created a small app that shows invoice information. I created a 'report query' and a 'rtf query layout' and was able to create a export button to save it as pdf.
    2 questions arise:
    - Can I assign the pdf name dynamically based on a row value (in my case the invoice number), and if possible , how do I go about to do that?
    - can I create a "batch" to spawn these pdf files ? How would i do that?
    Kind regards and thanks for your input.

  • CRVS2010 Beta - Cannot export report to PDF with unicode characters

    My report has some unicode data (Chinese), it can be previewed properly in the windows form report viewer. However, if I export the report document to PDF file, the unicode characters in exported file are all displayed as a square.
    In the version of Crystal Report 2008 R2, it can export the Chinese characters to PDF when I select a Chinese font in report. But VS2010 beta cannot export the Chinese characters even a Chinese font is selected.

    Barry, what is the specific font you are using?
    The below is a reformatted response from Program Management:
    Using non-Chinese font with Unicode characters (Chinese) the issue is reproducible when using Arial font in Unicode characters field. After changing the Unicode character to Simsun (A Chinese font named 宋体 in report), the problem is solved in Cortez and CR both.

  • How do I make two page spreads export correctly to pdf with a book file?

    I have a book I am working on in the book pallet. I have several documents in the book and have it set to auto update page numbers and keep it all organized, which is all good. However, when I export to pdf, though the page numbers and order is correct, for some reason, if it is an odd number of pages I get spread, spread, single page, spread.
    Just how the first page is always single, any last pages of a document that has an odd number of pages always gets singled out and the next document resumes in spread format. This is all in one pdf file, which I exported from the book pallet with none of the documents selected or open. I have the box for spreads checked, and it is doing spreads, but just not linking documents as spreads.

    You can use a multipage importer to import a single Page PDF into InDesign.
    Create a single page PDF
    Create a facing pages document the same size as your original file
    Multi-page place the entire pdf into facing pages (automatically done by script)
    Export entire book to PDF as spreads.

    I say to do this with a singe pages PDF - because I don't think it will import multiple InDesign files, you'd have to place them individually - and with my experience it takes longer to import multiple indesign files - so I just use a single pages PDF.

  • Export to interactive PDF with video

    Hello,
    i tried many times to create a simple white document with just a place of "flv" video in the middle.
    I set up the PDF export to interactive...but when i open the PDF i can't reproduce the video, just see the preview image.
    If i export to SWF it works.
    how can i export the content to a PDF and include the video in the pdf ??
    thank you

    Thank you for quick reply.
    unfortunatly it's not that problem.
    i noticed that the PDF file created is just 27 kb!! the video is like 100 Mbytes...so it seems that i haven't included it in the pdf files.
    when i configure the PDF preset in the "Include" frame i have just one choice:
    Interactive elements: "Include Appearance"
    i see that in the tutorial for export they all have a checkbox with "x Interactive documents" then "Embeed all".
    why i haven't this option? maybe cause of this i can't view and include video in pdf?
    thanks

  • Exporting as a PDF with missing fonts - help please?

    Hi,
    I am using Windows In Design CS4 and an agency provided us with a template via Mac OSX.
    Some of the fonts they used appear to be missing on Windows (mainly the ITC bookman family), I open the file anyway. When I export it to a PDF the PDF appears for the most part to be the same, despite the missing fonts.
    My questions are:
         Is the copy now just a closest match chosen by In Design (I think it may be using Bookman Old Style? If not, what is stopping me using font inserted by an external agency?
       Does anyone know the cheapest place to buy the ITC bookman family?
    I appreciate your help; I’m a beginner who has to teach himself!!
    Neil

    Bookman Oldstyle should be a very close match (if that is, indeed, what's getting substituted). I wouldn't bother buying ITC Bookman, unless you have to roundtrip your files with the agency. Substituting fonts and checking line endings would get old fast.
    So you can be sure of what's getting substituted, go to Type > Find Font, find all usages of ITC Bookman and replace them with Bookman Oldstyle. It seems like you have a PDF from the agency, so you can compare a few substitutions and see if anything changed. You should expect line endings in running copy (long paragraphs) to change slightly.
    If you really feel the need to buy ITC Bookman, I would just buy it from ITC (http://www.itcfonts.com/fonts/detail.aspx?PID=201890). Their price is not going to be much different than anyone else's. Check with the agency to make sure they have Type 1 ITC Bookman, not Opentype ITC Bookman, and then buy the same format they have. It's even possible they have a Truetype version. You would want to match it exactly, so you would have to buy the same font that they have, but in PC format instead of Mac format.

  • URGENT- Exporting jpg from LR with title and captions: how?

    Hi,
    I need to email some pix before midnight.
    In LR metadata section I have info (title and caption). I did export pix as JPGs but can't find the info when I open the pictures now in a folder on my desktop.
    How can I make sure the info is attached to the photo? Should I uncheck "Minimize metadata"?
    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks Hal. So there is no way to minimize the metadatea but keep the
    Title/Caption info?

  • Can I export keynote to pdf with hot links?

    I'd like to make a simple PDF of my Keynote slides, but when I do that, I lose the hot links. Is there a way to accomplish what I'm trying to do?

    The procedure above results in working interactive PDF files on all my systems using preview reader
    or Acrobat pro.
    Which version of Keynote is this?
    repair for version 6 and above:
    perform all these tasks  in the order below:
    1  delete Keynote, right click Keynote in the applications folder and select Move to Trash
    2  restart the Mac;   Apple menu > restart
    3  immediately after the start chime,  press the shift key until you see the Apple logo.
             let it fully boot up,  it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
    4  Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive  >  First Aid tab and click  repair disc permissions
    5  when complete, restart the Mac normally
    6  install Keynote  from the Mac app store
    Please report back as this might help others if it works for you.
