Indesign CS5.5 Relink Script needs help

Hi, I'm trying to relink images in an InDesign CS5.5 file to a different server using a script. This is what I have so far, but when I run the script I get errors and can't relink because "Either the file does not exist, you do not have permission, or the file may be in use by another application". Does anyone know how to make this script work? I'm fairly new to scripting.
Here is the script I have:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
          tell document 1
                    set linkList to links
                    set errInfo to "" -- We'll display error if we can't relink an item
                    repeat with x in linkList
                              if (x's status) is not normal then -- I usually check for any link that has an error
  -- This should only return an AppleScript path with ":" separators
                                        set linkPath to (x's file path) as string
                                        if "Volumes/Calendars_2013 FPO" is in linkPath then
                                                  set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "Volumes/Calendars_2013 FPO"
                                                  set linkPath to (linkPath's text items) -- Create a list of text items
                                                  set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "Volumes/Calendars_2013"
                                                  set linkPath to (linkPath as string) -- Concatenate with new path
                                                  set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "" -- Reset TIDs
                                                  try
  -- Need to make our string (path) into an alias path
  relink x to alias linkPath
                                                            try
  update x -- This can be helpful
                                                            end try
                                                  on error err
  -- We'll store link name if error occurs
                                                            set errInfo to (errInfo & return & x's name)
                                                  end try
                                        end if
                              end if
                    end repeat
  -- If an error occurs while trying to relink, we'll display it
                    if (count errInfo) > 0 then display dialog ("Can't relink:" & errInfo)
          end tell
end tell
--Hector

I just tried adding collens to the end of the folder path. For some reason the script skipped the relink line. Below is the code with your update. I'm thinking its not finding the images because the script needs to make a list of all the images and choose the one that matches the missing image.
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
          tell document 1
                    set linkList to links
                    set errInfo to "" -- We'll display error if we can't relink an item
                    repeat with x in linkList
                              if (x's status) is not normal then -- I usually check for any link that has an error
  -- This should only return an AppleScript path with ":" separators
                                        set linkPath to (x's file path) as string
                                        if "Calendars_2013 FPO:" is in linkPath then
                                                  set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "Calendars_2013 FPO:"
                                                  set linkPath to (linkPath's text items) -- Create a list of text items
                                                  set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "Calendars_2013:"
                                                  set linkPath to (linkPath as string) -- Concatenate with new path
                                                  set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "" -- Reset TIDs
                                                  try
  -- Need to make our string (path) into an alias path
  relink x to alias linkPath
                                                            try
  update x -- This can be helpful
                                                            end try
                                                  on error err
  -- We'll store link name if error occurs
                                                            set errInfo to (errInfo & return & x's name)
                                                  end try
                                        end if
                              end if
                    end repeat
  -- If an error occurs while trying to relink, we'll display it
                    if (count errInfo) > 0 then display dialog ("Can't relink:" & errInfo)
          end tell
end tell

  • [AS] Beast of a script needs help converting from Quark 8 to InDesign CS5

    First off, THANK YOU for even reading this post. Here's the dilema. I work in a publishing company that used an AppleScript from Quark 8 to automate our pagination from set text we pull from our sales reps worksheets. About 8 months ago we switched fully to InDesign CS5, but have had to hold onto Quark 8 to be able to keep running our pagination. I'd like to see if the geniuses (yes, I've been trolling these forums looking to solve this myself and seen some great problems fixed) on these forums can help me figure out the proper conversion I would need to be able to leave Quark 8 in the rearview.
    Here's our current code... (I warned you it was a beast)

    Hi,
    I think with this, you can already make good progress in your work.
    Good luck!
    global mydocument
    tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
         set mydocument to active document
         tell mydocument
              set myParaStyle to paragraph style "DUMMY TEXTS"
              tell page 1
                   set TheBounds to {0, 0, 20, 50}
                   set Ad_Box to make text frame
                   tell Ad_Box
                        set geometric bounds to TheBounds
                        set vertical justification of text frame preferences to center align
                        set contents to "This is the contents"
                   end tell
                   set myStory to parent story of Ad_Box
                   set applied paragraph style of every paragraph of myStory to myParaStyle
              end tell
         end tell
    end tell
    Your two handlers then look like this:
    on Make_Box(ThePage, TheBounds, this_angle)
         local ThePage, TheBounds, this_angle
         tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
              tell page ThePage of mydocument
                   set Ad_Box to make text frame
                   tell Ad_Box
                        set geometric bounds to TheBounds
                        set vertical justification of text frame preferences to center align
                   end tell
              end tell
         end tell
         return Ad_Box
    end Make_Box
    on get_CurrentPage(CurrentTextFrame)
         tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
              tell mydocument
                   return name of parent page of parent page of CurrentTextFrame
              end tell
         end tell
    end get_CurrentPage
    Shorter version:
    on get_CurrentPage(CurrentTextFrame)
         tell mydocument of application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
              return name of parent page of parent page of CurrentTextFrame
         end tell
    end get_CurrentPage

  • How to InDesign CS5 - .jsx script export multiple PDF??

    ok I have a datamerge process with .jsx script that is exporting to single page pdf files. What I need it for 2 of these pages to be in one (multi-page pdf). how can I accomplish this?
    here is the script I have here is my function & teardown:

                                  docType = "Pet" break;
                        case "19" : myPageName = "Pet w Cards ES";
                                  docType = "Pet" break;
             case "20" : myPageName = "Pet Slick Stand ES";
                                  docType = "Pet" break;
                        fileName = group + " " + myPageName + " " + date + ".pdf";
                        myFilePath = dirPath + docType + "/" + fileName;
                        myFile = new File(myFilePath);
                        myDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, myFile, false);
              //</fragment>
    //</snippet>
    //<teardown>
    function myTeardown(){
    Here is what I need exported as one pdf file:
             case "15" : myPageName = "Trifold EN Outside";
                                  docType = "TriFold" break;
                        case "16" : myPageName = "Trifold EN Inside";
                                  docType = "TriFold" break;

    That would require scripting. You might inquire in the InDesign Scripting forum for scripts that might work.

  • OMB Script: Need help to spot what's wrong

    I haven't looked in too much detail, but I think you are missing some brackets. You need to close brackets before you increment the loop. Try:
    foreach columnName $columnList {
    OMBLINEAGE DEPENDENCYTYPE 'DATAFLOW' TABLE '$tableName' COLUMN '$columnName';}
    incr j
    You will need to do the same thing at the other points in your script.

  • Problems installing CS5.5 ~ Really need help.. Thank you.

    Operating system = WinXP
    Trying to install purchased CS5.5 Web Premium on completely clean machine recently reformatted.
    Installing from files downloaded from Adobe.
    I did a successful install of this last summer, but this time it's been a real pain.
    I am completely lost on what is wrong and I have customers waiting for web page fixes.
    1. I bought the CS5.5 Web Premium upgrade last summer. I had 4.0 on my system at the time. No problem installing 5.5.
    2. Yesterday I wiped my hard drive clean and now need to reinstall CS5.5. I do not have CS4.0 on my machine now.
    3. I downloaded my CS5.5 files from Adobe today.
    4. The installation instructions said:
    "Navigate to the directory containing the downloaded files.... Double-click the Set-up.exe file to begin the installation. In some cases, the Set-up.exe file may open
    automatically."
    Today, that magic did NOT happen. Nor had it happened last summer.
    So I tried to install the files anyhow.
    5. On my previous install I opened files individually when the magic didn't happen and it still went okay. But not today.
    Today I started with WebPremium_DesignPremium_CS5_5_Content_ALL.exe file. Can someone tell me if opening that file first was a mistake? And if so, what file should I have opened first?
    It opened but I can see nothing in my program files. So I tried the three other files with no success... Here are the error messages:
    WebPremium_DesignPremium_CS5_5_Content_ALL.exe - - - Which I already opened. No files can be found on my computer, but they must be there.
    WebPremium_CS5_5_LS1.exe - - - I get an error message that says it is not a valid Win32 application.
    Illustrator_15_1_Content_LS1.exe - - - This acts like it will open and download fine. I did not do it pending why the other files aren't working.
    WebPremium_CS5_5_LS1.7z - - - I try to open this and get an error message, "Windows cannot open the file..." and it wants to find it on the Internet.
    This worked fine last summer. Can someone help me? Do I need to reformat my whole computer again?
    You don't know how appreciated the answer would be. I would be most grateful. Thanks!!!
    BLee

    WebPremium_DesignPremium_CS5_5_Content_ALL.exe - - - Which I already opened. No files can be found on my computer, but they must be there.
    Probably not. That really is just the additional content and without a qualifying product install it won't do anything most likely since the directories it expects do not yet exist.
    WebPremium_CS5_5_LS1.exe - - - I get an error message that says it is not a valid Win32 application.
    Could be damaged, could be blocked. Anything from virus scanners to flakey drives. Could also be missing a critical system library. No way to tell from afar.
    WebPremium_CS5_5_LS1.7z - - - I try to open this and get an error message, "Windows cannot open the file..." and it wants to find it on the Internet.

  • Simple hide a layer script need help

    Hi,
    This will be an easy one for someone. I’m new to scripting so please be patient. All I need to do is have a script that hide a layer named "L2_NonTranslatedParts". I have tried to piece together some code but I have failed. Can anyone help? I'm also not sure why we are defineing "watermark" as a var. It was in the code I cut up.
    var myDoc = app.documents.item(0);
    var L2_NonTranslatedParts = "Watermark";
    try{app.activeDocument.layers.item(L2_NonTranslatedParts).visible = false;}
    catch(_){alert("Can't find layer: " + L2_NonTranslatedParts);exit();};

    Yes, that is a good question. Really
    app.activeDocument.layers.item("L2_NonTranslatedParts").visible = false;
    should be sufficient.

  • Working on slug script, need help!

    Okay, this is not my script, one that I found online. The script works by allowing the user to set placeholders within the document and tag each placeholder with specific information such as DATE, TIME, FILENAME, etc.
    The current placeholders that are setup for this script are:
    {FILE}
    {FILEPATH}
    {FILENAME}
    {FILEEXT}
    {DATE}
    {TIME}
    I would like to add a few more placeholders, which is where I need some help. I would like to add a placeholder for the username or hostname, meaning computer name. {HOSTNAME}
    I would also like to add a placeholder for colors used in the document listed in this format:  PANTONE 186C, PANTONE 281C, BLACK, CYAN, MAGENTA, YELLOW, or as color swatches.
    Also, is it possible to create a placeholder that will produce an interface allowing user input? Say you wanted a placeholder for Designer, and a dialog popped up asking for input.
    Thanks for any help!

    // Version 0.9 from 22.9.2011
    // This script inserts the actual date or the actual time to a
    // predefined position in the document.
    // To define the position, you'll have to create an textobject and
    // execute this script while the object is selected. The whole object
    // has to be selected and not words or letters. You can mark more
    // objects, if you select each object separate and execute
    // the script on it.
    // With the placeholders {DATE} and {TIME} you are able to define a
    // particular point, where the date or the time should be replaced.
    // If there is no placeholder in the textobject
    // "{FILENAME}{FILEEXT} ({DATE}, {TIME})" will be used as standard placeholders.
    // To update the date and time execute this script without any object
    // selected.
    // There are some additional placeholders:
    //   {FILE}     - complete document-filename with path
    //   {FILEPATH} - only the documents filepath
    //   {FILENAME} - the filename of the document
    //   {FILEEXT}  - the file extension of the document inclusive dot
    // On my system this script can't see the path of the document, when

  • Task Scheduling Script - Need help with passing the scheduled command (variables are not being evaluated)

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm trying to get a simple task scheduler script to work for me and can't get the command I need passed to the scheduler to evaluate properly.
    Here's the script:
    ###Create a new task running $Command and execute it Daily at 6am.
    $TaskName = Read-Host 'What would you like this job to be named?'
    $Proto = Read-Host 'What is the protocol? (FTP/FTPS/SFTP)'
    $User = Read-Host 'What is the user name?'
    $Pwd = Read-Host 'What is the password?'
    $Server = Read-Host 'What is the server address?'
    $NetworkDir = Read-Host 'Please input the network location of the file(s) you wish to send. Refer to documentation for more details.'
    $RemoteDir = Read-Host 'Please input the REMOTE directory to which you will upload your files. If there is none please input a slash'
    $Command = 'winscp.com /command "option batch abort" "option confirm off" "open $Proto://$User:$Pwd@$Server" "put $NetworkDir $RemoteDir" "exit"'
    $TaskAction = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "$Command"
    $TaskTrigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Daily -At 6am
    Register-ScheduledTask -Action $TaskAction -Trigger $Tasktrigger -TaskName "$TaskName" -User "Administrator" -RunLevel Highest
    Write-Host "$TaskName created to run Daily at $TaskStartTime"
    What's messing up is the $Command creation, the command needs to have the quotes around "option blah blah", but if I wrap the whole line in single quotes the variables that are evaluated for the "open blah blah" strings (which also need
    to be inside quotes) and the "put blah blah" string are not being evaluated properly.
    I've dorked about with different bracketing and quoting but can't nail the syntax down, could someone point me in the right direction? My Google-fu seems to be lacking when it comes to nailing down this issue.
    Thanks

    Hmmn, closer. I'm getting this error now:
    + $Command = $tmpl -f  $User, $Pwd, $Server, $NetworkDir, $RemoteDir
    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (winscp.com /com...t {4} {5}" exit:String) [], RuntimeException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : FormatError
    And the command being added to the new task looks like this:
    winscp.com /command "option batch abort" "option confirm off" "open ($Proto)://($User):($Pwd)@($Server)" "put $NetworkDir $RemoteDir" "exit"
    Here's the current state of the script. I get what you're doing to try to bypass the quotes issue, using an array. I'm just not awesome at this yet sooooooo...
    $TaskName = Read-Host 'What would you like this job to be named?'
    $Proto = Read-Host 'What is the protocol? (FTP/FTPS/SFTP)'
    $User = Read-Host 'What is the user name?'
    $Pwd = Read-Host 'What is the password?'
    $Server = Read-Host 'What is the server address?'
    $NetworkDir = Read-Host 'Please input the network location of the file(s) you wish to send. Refer to documentation for more details.'
    $RemoteDir = Read-Host 'Please input the REMOTE directory to which you will upload your files. If there is none please input a slash'
    $tmpl = 'winscp.com /command "option batch abort" "option confirm off" "open {0}://{1}:{2}@{3}" "put {4} {5}" exit'
    $Command = $tmpl -f $User, $Pwd, $Server, $NetworkDir, $RemoteDir
    $TaskAction = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute $Command
    $TaskTrigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Daily -At 6am
    Register-ScheduledTask -Action $TaskAction -Trigger $Tasktrigger -TaskName "$TaskName" -User "Administrator" -RunLevel Highest
    Write-Host "$TaskName created to run Daily at $TaskStartTime"

    I have no knowledge in VB, but in javascript
    it should be called by:
    var mySwatche=app.activeDocument.swatches.getByName("CutContour");
    Regarding how to copy, i guess that you can load picture as raster / placed items or cut() & paste()... it's just ideas,

  • Creating Basic Calculator Script - Needs help

    I'd like to create a basic calculator script that makes doing calculations a bit easier from the command line.  Normally i do:
    echo "32*24" | bc
    So I built a bash script that I can just type "calc 32*24":
    bc << EOF
    scale=4
    $@
    quit
    EOF
    And it works ok until i try to use parenthesis:
    calc (1+49)/5
    bash: syntax error near unexpected token `1+49'
    if I use parenthesis, directly in the bc command it does ok:
    bc
    bc 1.06...
    (1+49)/5
    10
    I've tried putting $@ in quotes but not luck.  Looks like bash isn't transferring the parenthesis.  How can I get the bash script to pass theparenthesis?

  • Novice CS5 Dreamweaver User Needs Help!

    I have used Dreamweaber MX 2004 to a limited extent to build some very basic web sites.  I have just upgraded to CS5 and come across the AP Elements.
    If I build a page using tables then when I display the results in the browser the image (table) is always in the middle of the screen and adjusts accordingly when the browser window size is changed.  If I build build a page using an AP element the this is always fixed in position on the screen and rolls off the edge if the browser window is made smaller.  Is there a way os getting the AP element to react the same way as a table.  Perhaps I'm using the AP elements in the wrong context?

  • My first script needs help

    text<tab>{findWhat:”<U+0394>”}<tab>{appliedCharacterStyle:”Symbol”}<tab>{includeFootnotes: true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false}
    In this case, I want to swap the Greek letter Delta, which is its codepoint U + 0394, for a specific character style (the style is called Symbol).
    The question is: is written right?
    Where should I put it? Because I'm just adding this line in an existing code ...
    Thanks anyway to everyone! ^^

    Hi,
    You could  use "grep" mode instead of "text". I mean:
    grep<tab>{findWhat:"\x{394}"}<tab>{appliedCharacterStyle:"Symbol"}<tab>{includeFootnotes:t rue, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false}
    findWhat:"\x{394}" means to find a unicode with specified number (the number you can see in InDesign Info Panel).
    This should be placed as a one of lines inside "FindChangeList.txt" file before "FindChangeByList.jsx" run.
