InDesign Server configuration and fonts

When you start multiple instances of InDesign Servers you specify the different configuration names.
Is it possible that 2 instances of InDesign Servers running on the same server with different configuration names have different fonts installed?
I.e. can I install some fonts of configuration level, not for the entire server?

There is no document titled "InDesign Server Installation and Configuration Guide". This was an error in the CS2 version of Introduction to InDesign Server.
You'll find the CS2 version of Introduction to InDesign Server in the InDesign Server CS2 ESD (the server download bundle). Even better you'll find the CS3 version in the InDesign CS3 Server SDK. Available at the following URL:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/indesign/
The information about Java/CORBA is specific to CS3, but the information about scripting and SOAP applies to CS2.
Let me know if that helps, or you still need something else.

InDesign Server Installation and Configuration Guide

Hi everybody
I try to ask one silly Q.
Where can I get this document.
I found many references but no link :(

InDesign Server CS5 and Hardware Configuration.

Does any one know of InDesign Server is supported on Intel Xeon processor?
We have a need to generate 100's of PDF that merges a Data and Images togther. Each outout PDF varies anywhere from 20 MB to 400 MB. Below is the server configuration we are planing to purchase..
Six-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor X5670 (2.93GHz, 12M L3 Cache, 95 with 84 GB RAM.

Any one have any experience and any issues?

Hi there,
Yes we solved it. We had a background process in our app that was trying to send over a thumbnail generation script. This would peg the INDS server for up to 15 minutes of just doing nothing. You would see the script come across but nothing would return so it would hose. Ended up fixing the error in our application and INDS has been working like a dream.
When we were running this we only were on a single-instance. We've now migrated to a multi-instance and throughput seems to be a lot faster now.

InDesign Server, Applescript, and SOAP

Hi All,
I've scoured these forums and the rest of the 'net as best I can, but I can't seem to find a solution for my issue, so I'm hoping maybe someone out there can shed some light on it for me.
I have InDesign Server running on one box (IP of 192.168.1.5, launched to service SOAP commands on port 12345), and I'm attempting to send a SOAP command to it via Applescript from another box, but I can't seem to figure out how to get it the RunScriptParameters. The Applescript I'm running looks something like (dummy text in for the parameters right now, because that's where my trouble is):
tell application "http://192.168.1.5:12345/"
set resultText to call soap {method name:"RunScript", method namespace uri:"http://ns.adobe.com/InDesign/soap/", parameters:????}
end tell
Every time I run it, under a variety of ways of trying to feed it parameters, I get the error: "/ got an error: The required SOAP element "RunScriptParameters" could not be found. Please check the SOAP message that was sent to InDesignServer." I'm lead to believe that the method name and method namespace uri I'm sending through are correct, as if I change either of those it gives me a generic error. (Method <blah> not implemented, if I change "RunScript or the method namespace uri.)
So, what I'm left with is figuring out how exactly to send through the RunScriptParameters with this setup. I've tried every way I can think of to feed it the scriptLanguage, scriptFile, and scriptArgs, as an array of elements under parameters, as part of a variable called runScriptCommands which I feed through parameters, and every variety of this, to no avail, all giving exactly the same error. Any help would be immensely appreciated.
(And I know Applescript may not be the ideal way to call a SOAP command, but it would be a very simple way for me to test ID Server scripts in my situation, and there isn't any reason that I can see that it shouldn't work...)
Thanks!
Mathew

Hey..Can you tell me how did you executed jsx using sampleclient. Which SDK's sampleclient you used for executing this.??

Indesign server not recognising fonts.

Hi Experts,
We are generating pdf by running Indesign client plugin on indesign server.
We are able to generate the pdf but correct font is not recognised.
We have placed font in
c:\programe files\adobe\indesign cs5 server\fonts\avery.lnk
the avery.lnk pointing to one of our shared folder placed on other IP adress machine.
whereas if we place font files directly to
"c:\program files\adobe\indesign cs5 server\fonts" fonts are recognised, but not from avery.lnk.
We checked that avery.lnk is correctly pointing to our repository where we have kept out fonts.
I will be highly thankful for any reply.
Thanks& Regards
sameer

Are you sure you haven't converted everything to outlines?
Not sure what else you could try apart from the standard trashing your prefs or cleaning by exporting but if those don't work post this question on the Indesign forum, you'll get far more people answering there.

DNS server configuration and behaivour

Hi all,
I'm looking for detail explanations which can explain how Mac OS X 10.6 *DNS client* works and may be configured.
According to http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2227251 nothing is not guaranteed like order and failover.
According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4030 failover will take affect when DNS server returns with SERV_FAIL (0x2) error code. What about NXDOMAIN (0x3) error code (which is more interesting scenario)?
What I'm looking for DNS client?
I'm looking for several DNS servers configuration which allow to split DNS domains for several areas. This, for example, may be very useful for VPN connections when VPN DNS server will resolve internal resource and another server (configured before VPN tunnel established) will resolve external resources.
Is there any possible configuration to achieve this requirement for Mac OS?
Thanks in advance,
Oleg.

Thanks Felix for quick response.
In your scenario:
1. You configured to different DNS servers and probably only one of them replied to DNS queries. And this is OK.
2. When non valid IP configured means that DNS server will not reply to DNS query and than failover will query the second DNS server in the list. And this is also OK.
I'm looking 2 different DNS servers configuration when one of them will reply to different domains. For example:
First server will reply to *.mycompany.com.
The second one will reply to any query except mycompany.com domain(since it is not published).
Thanks again,
Oleg.

LDAP-Server configuration and using

Hi,
can anyone tel me how it function with the LDAP-Server in the Adobe LiveCycle Es?
What i have to do? and how can i get user data from the logged user via LDAP?
Thank

LiveCycle ES has an administrative console you can get at http://localhost:8080/adminui. You can log in with administrator/password.
Under the Settings section, you can go to User Management and then Domain Management.
In there you can define a new Enteprise Domain and create a new Authorization and Directory for that new domain.
In the Authorization, you can select LDAP. Under the Directory, you'll be taken through a wizard that will help you configure the LDAP connection to get the list of users and groups.
Then go back to Domain Management and select "Synch Now". You can set that synchronization to occur periodically.
Once you can connect to the LDAP server properly and get the list of users, you should be able to log to the different interfaces using users from the LDAP system.
You might need to give them LiveCyle roles to access some of the interfaces like adminui, workspace, etc. You can add roles under Settings/User Mangement/Role Management

Discovery Server - configuration and abap changes allowed?

Hello -
We are thinking about deploying a ESA Discovery Server, specifically for exploring ERP 2005. We may use this as a way to get one of our project teams busy doing proto-types, while we build out a true ERP 2005 Dev/Qual/Prod environment for them.
I anticipate that some of our project team members will want to create transports of config and/or ABAP code. And, would ultimately like us to export/import this into a DEV system, once it is built.
Is anyone aware of any restrictions for using the ESA Discovery Server, in a fashion like this? Or, any restrictions about importing transports into the ERP 2005 instance within Discovery Server (except the obvious version compatibility issues, etc.)
thank you,
Steve

Hi Steve,
As long as you ahve the appropriate ABAP development licenses you should be fine. The software which is installed is the exact same software which you will later download from service marketplace or obtain via DVD from SAP. Therefore, technically it should work fine. Of course, you will need to ensure the transport mechanism is configured properly for your environment.

Search for, edit, and delete XML tag (Adobe InDesign Server CS5)

Hi all,
I'm working with Indesign Server CS5 and JavaScript, though having some trouble coming up with a solution to a problem...
I need to build a JS script (called through SOAP) that will enable me to search an InDesign file for a given XML tag.
Upon finding the XML tag, if the 'action' variable is set to delete, it should delete the tag and its contents.
If the action is set to edit, it should change the contents of the tag to some user-specified content.
The primary caveat is that the XML tag is variable, as is the XML structure of the InDesign file.
Here's what I have in mind, in pseudocode:
function findXMLTag(tag, action) {
     app.searchForTag(tag);
     if (tagIsFound) {
          if (action == "delete") {
               tag.delete;
          } else if (action == "edit") {
               tag.contents = "Updated content";
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Ben Kay

'searchForTag' can be implemented as a recursive function.
Recursion is defined like this: I thought, "I'll just search this forum for 'recursion'." The first post I found was one of my own, suggesting that the poster should search the forum for 'recursion'.
Here is an example: find the XML Element [<email>]
And another: Remove xml element using JS[CS3] (read carefully, as the OP got stuck on how to successfully remove an element and continue)
And one, using XML Rules -- which I'm totally unfamiliar with, but may work for you: Changing Values in XML tags

Indesign Server CS4 service is not starting on Windows Server 2003 64bit

Hello guys,
I am not able to start Indesign Server CS4 service on windows Server 2003 SP2 64bit .
I have successfuly configured the service with InDesignServerService.msc, set the port to 18555. InDesignServerWinService the Log On option is set to "This Account". Also tried using different accounts!
When starting the indesign service from windows Service control panel I get this error:
Could not start the InDesignServerService x64 service on Local Computer.
Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
Error log from windows Event viewer:
Error
Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the InDesignServerService x64 service to connect.
Indesign server application works if launching from command line with the specified port 18555.
If trying to lauch IndesignServerService.exe from command line, there is a delay and finally nothing happens.
I have also tried launching 32bit indesign server service and the same error comes.
Would be grateful for your thoughts!

Hi Chandi,
      If Microsoft fix is not working or it is too old to apply then go for manual process i.e.;
      In the Microsoft KB article follow this :-
     Services that use the local system account to log on to a Windows Server 2003-based computer start if the Allow service to interact with desktop
     option is turned on. To turn this option on, follow these steps:
In the Services tool, click the service that you want to start, and then click Properties.
Right-click the Log On tab, and then click to select the Allow service to interact with desktop check box.
Click OK to exit the Properties dialog box.
   This will solve your problem.

Calling Reports from a Form - Application Server Forms and Reports Services

Hi
We currently are running App Server 10G Forms and Reports and Oracle DB 11G. Forms are running fine with the Apps Server but what I need to find out is how do I set the path for the .rdf files of the reports and how do I configure the Apps Server to present the Reports? I am sure we have to edit a .conf file and add the server name but not sure what to do or how to do it?
ps. I am a newb but I managed to get both of Apps Server and Database configured on my lonesome so I am just missing the info on the Reports side of things.
The Developer has asked the following questions :-
We want to run a report created in report builder from forms by using the following command in forms;
web.show_document(v_url,'_blank');
what does v_url need to be - we need to find an example showing the v_web_address and v_rpt_server
v_url := 'http://'||v_web_address||'/reports/rwservlet?server='||v_rpt_server||'+report=test_report.rdf &desformat=PDF&userid=user/pw@database'
Do we need to make changes on the report server configuration and where should the rdf files reside?
Regards

Indesign Server

Can more than one Indesign servers run at the same time in same machine ? i mean can indesign server cs5 and indesign server 5.5 run at the same machine at the same time ?

InDesign Server CS5.5 installation issue

I am developing solution using InDesign Servers via COM which is hosted on Windows Server 2008 R2. And I am experiencing problem utilizing CS 5.5 server:
When InDesign Server CS5.5 is installed on Windows Server 2008 (64bit) its COM component is registered with following parameters: CLSID = {96D10A00-63E3-423e-A223-DFC4BEA21206}, ProgId = InDesignServer.Application.CS5.
The problem is that those are the same parameters that are used for InDesign Server CS5 COM component. And therefore I can't have CS5 and CS5.5 installed on the same server, which is required for solution I am deleloping.
Has anyone experienced that problem or maybe know some workaround for it?
Meanwhile, When InDesign Server CS5.5 is installed on Windows 7 (32bit) its COM component is registered with unique parameters: CLSID ={34701EBC-5975-411C-8A45-E78E0934AADD} and ProgId = InDesignServer.Application.CS5.5

Hi Alexey
I'm having trouble doing exactly what you say you have done.
I'm trying to run InDesign Server CS5 and InDesign Server CS5.5 on the same Windows 2008 r2 64bit installation. InDesign Servers are Single Instance.
I am only allowed to run one InDesign Server at once - not both.
Is this possible for you or any other in this forum?
Thanks in advance,
Ruvan

Indesign server CC trial help

I have programmed Applescript and Indesign for desktop for years.
I have a solution that should work well with Indesign server and applescript.
Downloaded the Trial for Indesign Server CC.
Then you have to figure out how to activate the product, which i think i have done via this command :
adobe_prtk --tool=StartTrial --leid=InDesignServer-CS7-Mac-GM
Now that its not compaining about being activated i can see that the sample applescripts provided in the install can compile.
If i run them however i get a failiure thats odd.
tell application "Finder"
          get startup disk
                    --> "CWFM1:"
          exists "CWFM1:ServerTestFiles"
                    --> true
          exists "CWFM1:ServerTestFiles:bob.indd"
                    --> false
end tell
tell application "InDesignServer"
          close every document saving no
          make new document
                    --> document "Untitled 3"
          save document "Untitled 3" to "CWFM1:ServerTestFiles:bob.indd"
                    --> error number -1728
Result:
error "InDesignServer got an error: Can’t get document \"Untitled 3\"." number -1728 from document "Untitled 3"
The folder is chmod'd to 777 so its not a read write issue.
if i just use the normal open command in applescript i get this error :
The document “bob.indd” could not be opened. InDesignServer cannot open files of this type.
which is just odd. its a normal empty indesign document with nothing in it!
has anyone got ideas?
Server is MacMini i7 with 16gb ram, OS X 10.8.5 server.
