Looking for a script that will find broken links

I create long documents in InDesign, and I often have 50-75 Indesign documents in my InDesign book. Because what I do is production publishing, at any one time I'll have a half dozen similar books under construction. All the books contain the same chapters (as far as file name an basic content). I need a script that I can run on the final PDF for each project to make sure that all of my hyperlinks/cross references are intact. This is to ensure that I didn't accidentally link to a chapter from a different project. In other words, I need to make sure that my final PDF contains both the source and the destination.
Does anyone know where I can find a script like this?
Thanks,
Kelly Vaughn

A script can't do that. Maybe a plugin.

  • Looking for a script that will save as v11

    I need to save a book and all its files as version 11 (from version 12)

    Hi Dave,
    I have a script that saves to any FM version above 7 (and including MIF format, too). The script optionally copies all images to a local folder and optionally also includes text insets in the save. I know I sent you another script a couple of weeks ago, but I did not keep your email address. If you send the adress to me again I will forward a binary version of the script (the script source is something I am thinking of selling at a later stage and there was a lot of work on it, so I am a little less generous on that).
    Not sure if I have the latest version of the script on my laptop (I am on a business trip this week) but I can send you the script by Saturday at the latest.
    Kind regards from Copenhagen

  • Looking for a script that will size photos down and give unique filenames

    Here's the challenge:
    I have a bunch of photos that need to be sized down to three different types of thumbnails, each group of thumbnails needs to have a specific prefix to the filename while keeping the rest of filename in tact.
    So example:
    I start out with a photo 1400 x 933
    That photo needs to be sized down to 3 different smaller sizes: 630 x 420, 210 x 140 and 140 x93 (all of those have the same aspect ratio as 1400 x 933). So far this is a simple Action in Photoshop.
    The trick I can't figure out is that these photos need to have a specific file naming convention. Say for example the 1400 x 933 photo we start out with is named w_paul_001.jpg the other photos once sized down need to be: x_paul_001.jpg (for the 630x420), y_paul_001.jpg (for the 210 x 140) and z_paul_001.jpg (for the 140x93).
    How I do dat?

    This will do what you want:
    var srcDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var imgNum = srcDoc.name.substring(7, (srcDoc.name.length)-4);
    var myJpgQuality = 12
    var sizeArray = [
    [1400, 933, "x_paul_"],
    [630,  420, "y_paul_"],
    [100,  100, "z_paul_"]
    for (var i=0; i<sizeArray.length; i++)
      var shrinkWidth =  sizeArray [i][0];
      var shrinkHeight = sizeArray [i][1];
      var mySaveName = sizeArray [i][2];
      var id428 = charIDToTypeID( "Dplc" );
      var desc92 = new ActionDescriptor();
      var id429 = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
      var ref27 = new ActionReference();
      var id430 = charIDToTypeID( "Dcmn" );
      var id431 = charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" );
      var id432 = charIDToTypeID( "Frst" );
      ref27.putEnumerated( id430, id431, id432 );
      desc92.putReference( id429, ref27 );
      var id433 = charIDToTypeID( "Nm  " );
      desc92.putString( id433, mySaveName );
      executeAction( id428, desc92, DialogModes.NO );
      activeDocument.resizeImage(shrinkWidth, shrinkHeight, 72, ResampleMethod.BICUBIC);
      filePath = srcDoc.path + '/' + mySaveName + imgNum + '.jpg';
      var jpgFile = new File(filePath);
      jpgSaveOptions = new JPEGSaveOptions();
      jpgSaveOptions.formatOptions = FormatOptions.OPTIMIZEDBASELINE;
      jpgSaveOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
      jpgSaveOptions.matte = MatteType.NONE;
      jpgSaveOptions.quality = myJpgQuality;
      activeDocument.saveAs(jpgFile, jpgSaveOptions, true, Extension.LOWERCASE);
      app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);

  • Looking for a script that get images' urls from a website

    Hi,
    I have a website where users can insert theirs hotel informations.
    Most of them do not insert photos, I guess because the procedure is quite long and difficoult for the average user's skills.
    I'm looking for a script that take as input the url of the website and give as output the urls of the images of the site, so the user can decide which to upload on his tab.
    Someone can help me?

    You have to improve your design. Even if you can find the Coldfusion code, your design will still fall short in 2 ways.
    First, it is unreliable, because you're depending on some arbitrary site to be available and up to speed. Secondly, it is aesthetically wrong to be collecting pictures, especially large numbers of them, dynamically from someone else's site.  Think of their copyright and bandwidth.
    Fortunately, there are simple solutions. First, identify, by eye, the web pages containing the pictures you're interested in. Ask for permission from the owner.
    You could indeed use Coldfusion's cfhttp or any other script to download the JPGs, PNGs, and so on. But then, why waste your time re-inventing the wheel? It is infinitely better to use a web crawler !
    With most crawlers, you only have to supply the URL of the site, and the file extensions it has to grab (in your case, jpg, png, bmp, and so on).
    One click on the button, and you have them reeling in. Automatically. Some crawlers are considerate enough to enable you to adjust the download bandwidth. (We can learn from a million years evolution wisdom. The vampire bat is known to inject a painkiller before sucking!).
    Now that you've downloaded the images to your site, the links you display to your users are all yours. You may choose to resize some of the images, display them as you wish, and the issues of reliability and bandwidth are now up to you.

  • Looking for an app that will alarm on specific text messages.

    Looking for an app that will alarm on specific text messages. The idea is to use the message as a pager without a monthly subscription. There is a similar app for andriod called firealert.

    I could not find any app that would do this. There are different types of message apps but nothing that I could find to do what I am looking for. For a specific contact I would like the message to have a notification that will not go away until I acknowledge it. Just like you would do if it was a pager.

  • LOOKING FOR AN APP THAT WILL ALLOW ME TO READ A PDF DOCUMENT OFF LINE

    My itouch has 8 Gb of RAM and I am looking for an app that will allow me to store a PDF document in memory and read it off line as there are times when I do not have access to WiFi. I can email myself the document but I am off line, I don't think that the inbox is an off line folder from which an attachment can be viewed off line, right? Therefore the reason I am looking for the ability to save and read off line.
    Thanks!!

    @x62
    I don't think that the inbox is an off line folder from which an attachment can be viewed off line, right?
    No, incorrect. The inbox is an *off line* folder, just as it is on a computer. Once you download the email from the server, it is in your iPod/computer and you can access it when you like.

  • Looking for an app that will manage all my business contacts (5,000 ) by company and then by name

    I'm looking for an app that will manage all my business contacts (5,000+). Want the app to categorize by company and then by name, kind of like an organization chart
    Ex.     Apple, Inc.

    I just downloaded "FastContact" for free but its too slow while searching. After more research I saw "ABContacts" but don't want to pay $5 for something I may not be looking for.
    Any suggestions?

    The only thing available to you is the restrictiions section in settings.  Due to sandboxing, apps cannot interoperate with other apps except for sending data files from one app to another if allowed.  There is no app that will help you.
    Settings>General>Restrictions.

  • I'm looking for an app that will allow a presenter to give ipads to several other users in a room and control what's on display for the group

    please let me know if you know of any good apps to sync up several ipads in a room with one person in control. I'm looking for an app that will allow a presenter to control what's on display for several other ipad users in a room. I'd like to be able to do presentations over the ipad, but i want the presenter to control the screens so folks in the meetings don't get distracted by playing with the ipad. i'd like to avoid using a web meeting service and do this without having to connect to any kind of network since i'll often be doing this outside of my office.

    Try http://mysyncpad.com/. I'm not sure if it will do all you need, but it's the closest I've seen.

  • I'm looking for an app that will allow me to upload my contracts and forms to my iPad, fill in a customer's personal information, sign them, save them and email them.

    I'm looking for an app that will allow me to upload my contracts and forms to my iPad, fill in a customer's personal information, sign them, save them and email them.  I looked at easySign, Filemaker, FM Touch, Sign Docs, Zosh, Exzact, Mi-Co

    FormConnect (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/formconnect/id432653695?mt=8&ls=1) can handle the filling out, signing, saving and emailing the contracts/forms but uploading the contract and the form is going to be a challenge because you’re dealing with paper documents that have to be scanned.  If you can convert the scanned documents into an OCR program, you might be able to copy and paste the contract without having to retype it but the form itself is probably going to have to be recreated.  Alternatively, you could use a document annotation program such as iAnnotate and mark up the contract with ink.

  • I am looking for a device that will answer phone calls on my Mac. I have had a Phonevalet, and it is great, but it is no longer made.

    I am looking for a device that will answer a landline phone. I have a Phonevalet, which answers, takes messages, has call block and is pluged into my Address Book, but it was discontinued, and I would like to add another line. Ovalabs made a similar device, but it also is gone. Is ther a way to use an Apple Modem to take calls? Any other product? The best part of the PhoneValet for me was it would announce the caller ID over my stereo (pluged into my Mac) and I could hear who was calling in my workshop and decide if I wanted to interupt the call.

    I know I'm talking about expensive apps, but having been in prepress for about 30 years now, I really don't look at anything other than Quark XPress or InDesign for page layout apps. Your printing vendor will also be much happier with you when you use these products. Some areas of the U.S. tend to be mostly Quark oriented; others, InDesign. Ask your vendor what they would prefer, and if there are any free or cheap alternative apps they'll accept documents from.
    Apple's Pages app (part of iWork) is a decent page layout program, but hasn't been updated in four years. It also doesn't support CMYK. If you place a CMYK image in the app, it will export out an RGB version of it. Not good! You can work with RGB images if you prefer, but your CMYK translations will be left to the skill of the print shop you use to do the conversions.
    Don't even think about using Word. It has what it calls a page layout option, and does pretty much work like one, but there's no good way to import it into a real layout app such as InDesign. You end up paying the printer for their time to rebuild your entire project in either XPress or InDesign so they can actually do something with it.

    ok.. i am new to iphone and iOS and i just thought there might be some solution for this. Since they have the new notifications similar to Android, i was hoping there will be some simple app for this. Thats all.
    If there is no solution, you can say its not possible. I dont want you to tell me if I have to go back to Android or not. I bought iphone 4s becasue i liked it.
