InDesign CS6: Is it possible to automatically reorder the paragraphs in a document

I have a thesaurus with 1,000 entries.
Each entry looks like this:
also
He likes bananas and also strawberries.
as well as, in addition to, besides,
too, plus
I want to change the document, so that in each instance, the example sentence "(He likes bananas...) comes after the list of synonyms (as well as, in addition to...). The formatting is different for each (one is 100% black and the other is 70%).
I would like to know if there's a way to do this automatically.
Many thanks.

Susan,
If you have 4 para styles, try this very clever tool written by Ariel Walden:  Change Consecutive Paragraphs | FreelanceBookDesign.com
If you do want to save $25 and make 5 clicks free* (although time is still money):
* Only 1 click if you use Multi-Find/Change!

  • Installation Problem InDesign CS6   installation not possible less I close the ShellExtLoader

    solution i found
    quit SugarSync
    You just needed to quit it ,
    install and restart Sugarsync.

    Trash the download and any bits it may have already installed, then download again. If you use any kind of AV software, disable it for the install.
    EDIT but before doing that, just restart your computer and see if that helps.

  • InDesign CS6 EPub export: Possible to avoid object styles?

    After upgrading to CS6 I've been having issues with the new EPub export command. After expanding the EPUB file that was created I noticed all of the achored objects had been given their own, unique DIV classes in the default CSS file (ie the one now named after the INDD file) that included a bunch of formatting that I didn't want carried over from the print layout.
    I gather this is being called a new 'feature', but there doesn't seem to be a way to disable it. I thought the whole point of being able to use your own CSS file was to make a clean break from the styles applied in the print layout? I tried deleting the entire default CSS file and recompressing the EPUB and this actually seems to work (although I'm not sure why it does, since I would have thought that the unique class names wouldn't match with any defined in my basic CSS file?), although I'd prefer to avoid having to break the files open in the first place.
    Or am I missing something?
    Thanks!

    Ron Bilodeau who creates EPUB files for O'Reilly wrote a piece about EPUB from CS6 in the newest issue of InDesign Magazine. Perhaps what he says will be useful to you:
    "In the Advanced tab of the EPUB Export Options dialog box there is now an option
    to include multiple CSS stylesheets, in addition to the CSS that InDesign generates (Figure 3).
    "Initially, I was annoyed by this change, because Adobe removed the option to ignore the InDesign-generated CSS and only use a custom external CSS. I write my own custom EPUB CSS and therefore wanted to use that instead of what InDesign generates. But it didn’t take me long to realize that this new solution is pretty elegant. By default, any custom stylesheet attributes will override matching elements from the InDesign-generated CSS. This means that you have ultimate control over what is displayed. If you’re happy with how some of the InDesign-generated CSS works in your EPUB file, then simply leave those elements alone and let them do their job. For other elements that you’re not happy with, you can simply override them with your custom CSS. If you prefer to not write your own EPUB CSS, simply export your EPUB file without choosing any additional CSS file(s) and let InDesign do all the work."

  • Is it possible to alphabetically reorder sheets in a numbers document?

    Well the question is … I imported an excel sheet and joined with another sheet, and it resulted in a big collection of sheets, eeach one with one table.
    But they are absolutely disorganized. I would like to reorder the sheets in alphabetical order. Is it possible?
    Many thanks in advance. Namaste,
    silta

    Thanks. I knew that one, but there are a lot of sheets and I'm migrating lots of office documents to iwork, and I didn´t expect that problem
    I can manage it, but an auto ordering function would be nice.
    Thanks again. Namaste,

  • InDesign CS6: Is it possible to create a pdf in which the version for printing is different from that on the screen?

    hello,
    Everything is in the title!
    The idea is to make a pdf that I send to clients by email, very graphic with colored backgrounds but when printed, the background becomes white to save ink. Similarly to the change of color of the text.
    For example, on the screen when I open a pdf I see white text on a blue background but the impression we see black text on white background.
    thank you

    hi Bob,
    With a little delay & my apologies, anyway, after a little test, your solution works very well. thx!!
    A more flexible solution was given to me on the French forum by Mr. JR Boulay
    "We need to generate 2 PDF, one with color and one in black and white. Open the PDF with Acrobat b & w and in the layers palette ask "Import as Layer" color PDF.
    Who will come on top. In the Layer Properties it only remains to define the PDF / color layer as "not printable."
    It will just be careful that the color PDF has no white background because in PDF it means transparency and thus we see through ...
    (Just use black backgrounds at 1% to fix this problem). "

  • Is it possible to automate/script the removal of workflows from workflow archive?

    We don't allow our CQ authors to activate content directly.  They must activate their content by executing a custom approval workflow we'd developed as part of our first CQ project.  As you can imagine this workflow is run very often.  So much so that when it came time to upgrade from CQ v5.4 to CQ v5.5 there were too many for me to purge the workflow archive and leaving all those workflows in place caused the upgrade process to run for a very long time.  At the time I was provided with a package for the CQ v5.4 environment that once installed provided a component (/apps/tools/components/purgewf/run.html) that I could then then leverage to kick off a process that given enough time would purge all of the workflows from the workflow archive.
    Now that we are on CQ v5.5 I'd like to be proactive and develop a script that I can schedule to execute on a regular basis that would basically do the same thing as that component from CQ v5.4.  Does anybody know if there's an easy way to do this with CQ v5.5?  Could I simply install the same component that I was given for CQ v5.4 and then leverage curl to kick the process off as I've done that sort of thing before to kick off JMX operations such as runDataStoreGGarbageCollection.  This wouldn't be a JMX operation but I'm thinking it migh actually be easier to use curl to kick of something like purgewf/run.html though I'm not really sure what I'm basing that on other than instinct.

    This has proved very helpful thank you.
    Although I've one point of clarification I could still use some help with.  The document provided by Sham, HC mentions within that it's possible to clean up workflows that have had a status of RUNNING for more than 1 day but it seems to be saying its neccessary to create a list of those workflow models you want this feature of the purge mechanism to act on.  I've looked the Felix configuration over and I can't see that any of the properties there would accept a list of workflow model names and I've tried all of the various modes that are available for the process and none of them do this automatically by assuming any sort of default value for this list.  Is this capablity really there?  Not that I see the ability to purge RUNNING workflows as critical functionality for the purge process as the number of problem workflows with this status tends to be managable but if yet if there's a way to make it do it in addition to clean out the archive it would be nice.

  • Is it possible to automatically login the OSX 10.5 server after a restart?

    I am screen sharing with my server at work from home. I would like to reboot the server after doing some updates, but I know the login screen is going to come up after I restart. Is it possible to set it up so that the login screen auto-populates or gets skipped?
    Thanks,

    Got it. It works just like it does in OSX. Duh.

  • Is it possible to automate opening the GuiMainWindow

    Hello all,
    I'm new to SAP ..
    I'm looking for a way to open the GuiMainWindow
    the one you get after to login.
    Below is a simple console script written in Vb.net, that auto populates my login details.
    Can anyone suggest what com object / code is required to take me to the next screen?
    Imports SAPBAPIControlLib
    Imports SAPTableFactoryCtrl
    Imports SAPFEWSELib
    Module Module1
        Sub Main()
            Dim bapi As Object
            Dim connection As Object
            bapi = CreateObject("SAP.Functions")
            connection = bapi.connection
            connection.User = "username"
            connection.Password = "password"
            connection.client = "500"
            ' connection.Destination = "R/3"
            If (connection.logon(0, False)) Then
                'Console.WriteLine("Your connection was successfuly made... ")
                'Threading.Thread.Sleep(2000)
          ' call the form to load?
            End If
        End Sub
    End Module
    '=======================================================
    I also have a similar one in VBS.
    Set oBAPICtrl = CreateObject("SAP.BAPI.1")
    'Creating Connection object
    Set oConnection = oBAPICtrl.Connection
    oConnection.Client = "500"
    oConnection.User = "username"
    oConnection.Language = "EN"
    oConnection.ApplicationServer = "ipaddress"
    oConnection.Password = "password"
    oConnection.SystemNumber = "00"
    'Performing a remote logon to the R/3 System
    '0
    If oConnection.Logon(0, True) <> True Then    'Logon with dialog
          Set oConnection = Nothing
          Logon = False
          MsgBox ("No access to R/3 System")
    Else
         Logon = True
    End If
    If Logon Then
    MsgBox "Logged on successfullyu2026"
    End If
    the vbs one successfully authenticates, so i could run background processes, but I just want to show the guiMainForm for now.
    Is this possible?
    many thanks.

  • How to register Indesign CS6

    I have installed Indesign CS6 on a new computer successfully. The products is also succesfully deactivated on the old computer (I cannot open it anymore). On the new computer the following is inactive (grey) Help -> deactivate. Does this mean my product is currently activated? Should I register the product (Indesign says under Help->registering that this should be done during 7 days!)? If I try it I cannot log in with my Adobe ID (it's just not getting forward...). However, it's possible to log in on the Adobe page. I have also tried to log in first before registering, but it doesn't help.
    I also found this information that it's not necessary to register CS6 anymore?
    Adobe - tuotteen rekisteröintivaihtoehdot

    You only register a product once as confirmation that you acquired it so as to establish ownership of it thru your Adobe account.  Activation is what gets done for each installation of the product.

  • InDesign CS6 DPS click and Drag feature?

    Hi
    I was wondering if in inDesign CS6 it was possible to make a click and drag application. So when the application is playing on an ipad you can click and drag images around the screen freely?

    Should be possible with an HTML5 widget.
    For ADPS there is a special forum here:

  • InCopyImport.InDesignPlugIn for Indesign CS6

    Is it possible to obtain a fresh copy of the InCopyImport.InDesignPlugIn for Indesign CS6? I have installed Creative Suite CS6 on a fresh iMac 10.8.5 build, and I receive this error when opening Indesign CS6 only. All other applications run fine. AT first I had an issue with 6 or 7 plug-ins, but upon closing and reopening, I am down to just the one error.
    Adobe Indesign does not recognize InCopyImport.InDesignPlugIn as a valid plug-in. Please reinstall the InCopyImport.InDesignPlugIn plug-in and restart Indesign.

    I have both InDesign CS6and InDesign CC 2014 on my computer. The foundation of both is the same. Even the tutorials are identical. So how you can say that CC was built from the ground up is preposterous.
    Without getting into an argument with you. I will explain my frustration more clearly.
    1/ I paid an extortionate amount of money for InDesign CS6 and have been very happy with the results
    2/ It appears that Adobe and you want me to forget the amount of money that I have already invested, bin the old software and buy a subscription to a new more powerful program that was built on the same design. I will receive a meagre discount for the first year and then be charged in the region of £50.00 per month there after. That works out at £600 per calendar year. And a cost that will have to be passed on to my customers
    3/ On other Adobe products they offer an add on for updates. So why can't they offer an add on for the Fixed and reflowable layouts.
    4/ As mentioned in an earlier conversation. I am impressed with the software and will more than likely have to subscribe to CC 2014.
    So lets end this conversation here in the knowledge that I will be buying a subscription .
