Finding an Adobe Script

Hello,
I've been trying to create a script in Visual Basic to find text in a document and replace it with a graphic. A tutorial I found mentioned that the Adobe site had a pre-made script called ReplaceTextWithGraphic for download on
http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/scripting/index.html
in the "Scripting Resources" section.
The problem is that I've tried downloading all the sample scripts on that page, but none included the script I'm hoping for. Has anyone heard of this script? Is it in another section? Am I totally blind?
I realize this is probably a long shot, but the lure of not having to try to build a script like that is just too tempting.
Thank you much,
Sera

Nevermind, found it! A friend pointed out that I was downloading the right file and looking in the wrong folder. How embarrassing!

Does Adobe Story Free have a Type and template for stageplay format and if so where do I click for it. In the Type button I could only find screenplay, TV script, Two column script, AV script and other, but not for stageplay?

Help with first Adobe Script for AE?

Hey,
I'm trying to create a script that will allow me to set a certain number of layer markers at an even interval to mark out a song. Could someone help me troubleshoot this script? I've been working on it for ages now, and I'm about to snap. I've basically gone from HTML and CSS, to javascript and Adobe scripting in the past few hours, and I cannot figure this out for the life of me.
I want to create a dialog with two fields, the number of markers to place, and the tempo of the song. Tempo is pretty simple, its just the number of beats per minute. The script is meant to start at a marker that I have already placed, and set a new marker at incrementing times. Its mainly to help me see what I'm trying to animate too, even if the beat is a little hard to pick up every once in a while.
Also, is there a better way to do this? This script will help me in the long run because I will need to do this pretty often, but I'm wondering if there was something that I could not find online that would have saved me these hours of brain-jumbling?
Thank you very much for any help you can offer.

You should ask such questions over at AEnhancers. I had a quick look at your code but could not find anything obvious, so it may relate to where and when you execute certain functions and how they are nested, I just don't have the time to do a deeper study.

How to find the right script?

I have a page with multiple files available (currently by
download). A browser may want 1 or 10 files.
I am trying to find the best scripting method for keeping
notified of who is downloading which file (their email address).
Thanks
Aaron

What scripting model are you using?

ADOBE SCRIPT NOT FOUND IN CREATIVE CLOUD

I Can't find adobe script in creative cloud as part of my student subscription. Can anyone help. Thanks in advance.

At present, you can only access your scripts from story.adobe.com website.

Where do I go to discuss Adobe scripting in general?

I’m new to Adobe scripting, and I have questions about scripting in Photoshop,
which I assume I can post here,
But I also have questions about scripting in general. I ran across a post in the InDesign forum,
where the response was “moved to the scripting forum.” But that forum isn’t on the list of available forums.
So where do I go to discuss Adobe scripting in general?

Hello,
you're welcome here in the forum, I'm sure you will get the correct answers to your questions. And only to complete, we here in the forum mainly are users like you and me.
You will find all the Communities by clicking "Adobe Communities" on the top of the window. Please have a look at https://forums.adobe.com/welcome (see screenshot) and/or open "All communities"

Finding the Adobe Bridge CC cache

I'm running Bridge CC along with PS, and I'm having problems with the cache.The best advice seems to be to trash the cache and reloadt, but Bridge Preferences says the cache is located at /User/Library/Caches/Adobe Bridge CC/Cache/ and I can't find it. In fact, I can't find any Adobe cache folder anywhere, for any adobe product. The Library/Cache/ folder shows only Apple and caches for my two printers. I suspect this is Apple hiding such things, and maybe that's a generally good idea but I do need to get in there to handle this problem,
Brian

You're welcome.
There are three "Library's" : root, system, and user's (if you have multiple users, each user has a library).
Root: /Library/
System: /System/Library/
User: /Users/yourusername/Library ( or, simply ~/Library). The tilde + slash indicates your user account.

I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to.. When I've tried to download and install again

I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to.. When I've tried to download and install again it says that the "Object Already Exists." It may exists, but it is not visible in the file or in my list of programs on the Startup Menu.

cactisken
You should not have to uninstall Premiere Elements 12/12.1 in order to install and run Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer unless your computer is overloaded and the computer resources are compromised. Just use one program at a time.
Can you still use 12/12.1 on this same computer that will not let you use 13?
What specific Window operating system are you using?
Let us go through the usual drill...
1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
2. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
3. Did you install the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
4. Disable the SLCache Folder found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
Local Disk C
Program Files (x86)
Common Files
Adobe
and in the Adobe Folder should be the SL Cache Folder that you delete or disable by renaming the Folder
from SLCache to SLCacheOLD.
5. Are you running the program as Administrator and is the latest version of QuickTime installed on the same
computer as Premiere Elements 13?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thank you.

How to find out the script name used in driver program

Hi Folks ,
I want to find out the Scripts(print program) used in my driver pogram .
How is it possible any Tcode availble for this ?
Thanks ,
Jaga.D

Hi Jagadish,
Go to transaction SE38 and open the program RSNAST00. There search for the subroutine TNAPR_LESEN.
Set a break point at that subroutine and leave. When printing the data from a transaction to a script or form (Like VA01 or VL02N), debugger is started when the processing reaches the subroutine in RSNAST00. There double click on the field TNAPR-FONAM. continue step-by-step execution. The field will display the name of the script or form that is currently being used.
Another way to do this is to go to transaction NACE and check the transaction for which you want to find out the script. There you will find the script and print program that have been set for a particular transaction.

Where do I find the Adobe pdf 9.0 printer description file and how do I install it?

Where do I find the Adobe pdf 9.0 printer description file and how do I install it? Operating system is Windows 7 and I have Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 installed. Adobe Acrobat X Pro just updated to version 10.1.8

Hi. Thanks for the replyl
I'm in prepress, working mainly with Quark XPress for advertising files and with Word, Photoshop, everything, for many years. My older computer is the workhorse with Quark 6.5 and CS4 and OSX 10.4.11. Everything is set up for me to produce PDF x1a files by printing .ps files from Quark and Word, and InDesign.
My newer computer, OSX 10.9.4, must now be used to a greater extent. So I have Quark 9 and 10 and now Creative Suite for the Cloud. But I don't have any Adobe PDF printer which I select when I print .ps files and place into my Distiller Watched Folder. I by pass selecting the Adobe PDF printer in Word and just print straight to .ps. The .ps file just sits in the Watched Folder and no longer flows into Distiller, processed and out. Is this the way of the future? I just want a smooth, fast flow for PDF's. I want them to be PDF x1a compliant for hi-quality printing.
Thought you might help to give me info as to how one uses Distiller (or not) with the new operating system and latest programs. Can't seem to find any info as of yet by searching the Adobe FAQ's and the Internet in general.
Thanks alot.

I can't find the MATLAB script node in labview

We are using a MAC G4 with OS 9. We also have labview 5.1. I have looked under Mathematic>>Fomula in the tools palette and I cannot find the MATLAB script node.
Is there an extra download that I need to get this MATLAB script node?

The HIQ and MATLAB script nodes are only available in the full and professional development systems. If you have one of these versions, these nodes should be under the Mathematics>>Formula palette.
If you have the base package of LabVIEW, you will not have access to these script nodes. Details about which options are included in which development packages can be found at:
http://www.ni.com/labview/devchart.htm

In Blurb trying to upload an album that I have prepared in Adobe, but I can't find any Adobe files that way.

I am in Blurb, trying to upload an album that I have prepared in Adobe ELements 10. To upload I need to navigate in my computer to whatever Adobe folder has the album, but I can't find any Adobe files that way. So I wanted to save the album to
an external drive where I could be sure to find them for the upload
But when I tried to copy the photo album, the dialog box said that the photos will be deleted from the main program. I didn't like the sound of that, so I chose "Backup" which seems to have copied everything from Adobe to my eternal drive, not just the photo album that I want. To make matters worse, but exported folder named for my photo album is not the group of photos that I assembled in Adobe.
How do I upload directly from Adobe the program on my hard drive so I can be sure it is the correct assemblage of photos?

The album photos are just the originals; there are no special copies in the album--it's just a list. Select the photos in the album, then go to File>Export as New Files and send the new copies where you want them.

I'm trying to switch my adobe script membership over to the unlimited app membership one I get it.

I pay for adobe script pro monthly but i'm subscribing to an unlimited app subscription. Can I switch over My adobe script membership to the unlimited membership so I only have to pay one price? Thanks

Do you mean Acrobat subscription by Script pro monthly ?
Is unlimited app subscription referring to CC ?
If that is the case, then you can use the Acrobat 11 pro present in CC & not use the acrobat subscription.
Hope it helps you.
Regards
Rajshree
