Numbering in InDesign 5.5 - name index

Indesign 5.5. How to change the numbering style in the name index?

If you mean Page Number you can do this from: Index panel>Generate Index, but you can Override Number Style from: Index panel>Page Reference Options>Number Sytle Override.

How do i save a numbers doc under a different name

I'm trying to save a numbers document under a different name. I could change it easily yesterday but it's not working today?

What version of OS X and Numbers are you using?
If you are working under Lion and the latest version of Numbers use File > Duplicate and then Save.

Unable to create foreign key: InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'index'. Parameter name: index

I am running an SQL(CE) script to create a DB. All script commands succeed, but the DB get "broken" after creating the last costaint: after running the script, viewing table properties of Table2 and clicking on "Manage relations" gives the following error: Unable to create foreign key: InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'index'. Parameter name: index. Wondering what does that refer to...
Here it is the script. Please note that no error is thrown by running the following queries (even from code that passing the queries by hand, one-by-one to sql server management studio).
CREATE TABLE [table1] (
[id_rubrica] numeric(18,0) NOT NULL
, [id_campo] numeric(18,0) NOT NULL
, [nome] nvarchar(100) NOT NULL
GO
ALTER TABLE [table1] ADD PRIMARY KEY ([id_rubrica],[id_campo]);
GO
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX [UQ__m_campi] ON [table1] ([id_campo] Asc);
GO
CREATE TABLE [table2] (

I know this is kind of old post, but did this realy solved your problem?
I'm getting this same error message after adding a FK constraint via UI on VS2008 Server Explorer.
I can add the constraint with no errors, but the constraint is not created on the DataSet wizard (strongly typed datasets on Win CE 6) and when I click "Manage Relations" on the "Table Properties" this error pop out:
"InvalidArgument=Value or '0' is not valid for 'index'.
Parameter name: index"
Even after vreating my table with the relation in SQL the same occurs:
CREATE TABLE pedidosRastreios (
    idPedidoRastreio INT NOT NULL IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY,
    idPedido INT NOT NULL CONSTRAINT FK_pedidosRastreios_pedidos REFERENCES pedidos(idPedido) ON DELETE CASCADE,
    codigo NVARCHAR(20) NOT NULL

Book Page Numbering Broken - InDesign 5.5

I've been experiencing some very persistent and reproducible errors with book numbering in InDesign 5.5.
Any feedback or ideas would be very welcome.
Platform: OS X Lion (relatively clean install), InDesign CS5.5 7.5.2, no plugins on test environment
Reproducible condition:
Create a new book, enable automatic page numbering (continue from previous section).
Create four new documents, to each add ten pages. Ensure automatic numbering is on.
Add each of these documents to the book.
Save the book.
Update page numbering for the book.
Result:
Documents do not display correct book page numbers in the book palette. They show document, not book, relative numbering. Each document displays (1-10) in the book palette.
When viewing the documents themselves, the first two document page number as expected: (1-10) & (11-20). This is also the result when exporting to PDF.
However documents 3 & 4 in the book take page numbers (11-20) as well, as though they were each positioned second in the book.
Tested:
I've tried alternative automatic page numbering options for the book (start on odd/even) with no change. UPDATE: on a 20 document book there are some sections that seem to restart as "pairs", so number restarts randomly throughout the book. Same document and book numbering options as described here.
I've tested with different numbers of documents, different page counts.
I do update the page numbering after each attempt, no change.

Note about large document test added.

lilia@, thanks for the ideas, keep them coming...! Regarding these two, I've tried both already, no joy. Reordering document 3 to document 2 does result in it being re page numbered, but the "new" third document loses it's page numbers again (i.e. the book seems to be maintaining "pairs" of docs and reordering just changes which document is being re numbered).
Have also added using the plus button on the panel, same. Thanks for the ideas though.
Fwiw, this problem shows up on both existing books and new test books with fresh test docs. I've also tried the borderline voodoo method of exporting to IDML and reopening/saving the docs. Pretty much at my wits end. Well, a little more wit left, but not much.

InDesign CS4: File names change to string of numbers

Occasionally, one of our users will save an InDesign CS4 file, only to have the file name change. For example, a file originally named "#kwn25501.bcbsNM.indd" was saved as "#kwn25501.bc157-1223857848."
If the user is not aware that this has happened, things can go horribly, terribly wrong in our production environment. The "numbered" file may be missing key elements, or be somehow be corrupt in some fashion. In one case, this led us to having to reprint a job because the "numbered" file was missing a photo; somehow, that file was used (and perhaps renamed after the fact) to create the final output.
We use Macs running InDesign CS4 6.0.5. Some of our Macs are running Tiger 10.4.11, while others are running Leopard 10.5.8. The problem seems to related to the Leopard machines, although that is not 100 percent certain at this point. All of these Macs are bound to Active Directory and save files to a Windows 2003 server. I know Adobe recommends against working on files over a network, but perhaps there is an explanation for this file renaming aside from network issues.
Any light that can be shed on this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Kevin Stauffer

Check to see if maybe your original filename is the problem.
You may need that particular name for a workflow reason, but some of the symbols in the middle of your filename are generally not a good idea. Especially working off of a server, file names should be ONLY alpha-numeric characters, no symbols, no periods (except for the file type) and only underscores or dashes to separate words, no spaces.
The reason is some of those symbols get picked up as machine language and all sorts of bad can happen as a result.

Find numeric numbering list, Indesign CS3,Windows

1. I LIKE
a. Mango
b. Orance
2. Did you know
a. yes
b. no
In this two list I want only numeric numbering list. I wrote the javascript code like
text_frame.paragraphs[pa].bulletsAndNumberingListType;
but it shows all the numerice and alphabetic list.
Please Help

Thanks for the additional information, but unfortunately it still leaves me a bit confused. We have only used InDesign CS3 and CS4 with the regular Adobe Paragraph Composer, and it works just fine except for the one font - Adobe Thai. This font works well also except when a tone mark is needed above a punctuation mark - thats the only time we see a problem?
Can you read Thai? Your post confuses me, too. I see that no Thai fonts work correctly in CS4 without the World-Ready Composer turned on. I don't work in Thai very often - my SE Asian script expertise is concentrated in Lao, Cambodian, and Burmese - but I have some sample Thai randomly harvested from the Internet, and a collection of Thai fonts, and none of them work without the World-Ready Composer turned on. Follow the link I posted previously and read about it.
These are all generic MS fonts. I suppose that someone clever w/OpenType might be able to make a font that would render correctly in the normal Paragraph Composer, which is why I asked you to name any font that did work correctly in CS4 without the World-Ready Composer. I would like to know about it.
Even with the World-Ready Composer, I'm not willing to say that the Thai is being rendered well - I don't read Thai, so I am not suited to make judgments on good typography, but the Paragraph Composer examples above are obviously less correct than the World-Ready Composer examples.
I'm not even going to talk about CS3. Try this experiment yourself and post a screenshot.

Question about section numbering in InDesign CS3

How do I use section numbering (1-1, 2-1, etc.) throughout a book document? I have a Current Page Number at bottom center of each Master page and want to include the Chapter Number and a hyphen before the Current Page Number. I want to start numbering over with each chapter. Also, I would like to find out how to use a running header of the Chapter name in the Master Pages. Thank you.

There is a distinction between chapter and section numbers. Also, Book can have a special meaning, so let's see if we can clear up some stuff here, first.
Is this a single document which you are dividing into logical chapters by uing sections in Pages panel Numbering and Section Options, or an InDesign Book, which is a collection of individual documents, each of which might be one of your chapters, and each of which might also contain multiple sections. An individual document can contain many sections, each of which may have a prefix and a section marker, both of which are accessible for use in numbering pages, but an individual document can have only one chapter number.

Can't type (search) PANTONE+ numbers in InDesign CS5 7.0.4 Color Books

There is a glaring issue in trying to select Pantone+ colors by typing in the color number, like 97-8 (from the CMYK Pantone+ book) yields 17-1?! I have no idea why that comes up. And the panel is almost unusable due to this inexcusable oversight. It needs to be searchable by exact Pantone+ number. JUST LIKE REGULAR PANTONE NUMBERS in the regular color book, I could type in 18-1 and get 18-1 not some obscure number.
I have seen a few similar posts without proper answers EVEN IF it said it was answered.
I have pantone+ libraries installed. They just don't work when it comes to typing in the number you want...you have to scroll, and the scroll is way too slow or way too fast and very painful to use.
Please help!
Thank you!

This seems to only be the case with the Pantone+ Process color books. "Pantone+ CMYK Coated" & "Pantone+ CMYK Coated". This is a huge problem for me since 99.9% of our jobs are CMYK.
And I did reinstall the swatches recently and that did not fix InDesign.
But the Pantone+ CMYK color books work in Illustrator CS5 just fine... you can type in your number and get your color.

What is the best way to preserve page numbers from InDesign to EPUB?

I have a project where the source files are InDesign based - the final step before the product goes to print. We want to bring this content to reflowable EPUB format, but we need to keep the print page numbers in order to support citations.
Has anyone faced this type of challenge previously, and what was the approach pursued? While an InDesign 2014 export to EPUB Fixed will preserve the page numbers, there will be a lot of cleanup required to make these files reflowable again.
Andre

Hi Douglas,
I agree that the common practice of removing the page numbers works with regards to trade content (fiction, non-fiction, magazines, etc) where pages generally are to communicate how far you have 'travelled' in a particular title. With reference works, however, this particular type of metadata can have a greater meaning - communicating to other individuals the location of a reference in order to allow them to see the reference in its original context. It becomes a way of locating relatively precise locations within a work that is being referenced.
Currently, and we can expect for some time, the original print content will be the authoritative version that is referred to, or cited, as a means of communicating the exact location of a specific reference to another individual. Although evident in many industries, perhaps this arises most commonly in legal texts, where a lawyer as part of an argument or a judge in writing a decision will cite a text reference by title, volume, possibly edition, date/year, etc. and, ultimately, the page number - which in the end is just another piece of metadata relative to the text that appears on that particular page. In order to create digital copies of these types of texts that can still function relative to the print authority, an accurate page number that corresponds to the print needs to be available somewhere in the texts. (This is true both ways, by the way - both in terms of following a cite to a specific location within the content; and citing a specific location within the content).
For many publishers, InDesign will be the final, what I would call 'exportable' format that can maintain a certain degree of information about the context of the source content and will have page numbers represented that precisely reflect what will be found in the final print version.
I have some ideas on how I would like to present this in a reflowable digital version (and reflowable text for this type of content is desirable for all the reasons it would be elsewhere - adaptability to screen size, ability to resize/change fonts for different reader experience, etc). And the new EPUB fixed export function will allow me to preserve the page numbers and through some programming I can get to a point where I can isolate the text that corresponds to a specific page number from the InDesign exporta manual solution would not be an improvement), but with a somewhat 'cleaner' export of the text of the content, where the precise fixed formatting is not so important.
The perfect solution would be to allow page numbers to be preserved within a 'hidden' tag in the EPUB reflowable export - so that the content of each page would be preceeded by an <a id="Page_75" /> tag, with words that are hyphenated belonging to the page on which they started. Note that the use of such a tag would also go a long way towards supporting the call for a "page-list" and hyperlinks as you've described them above. If the publisher wanted to make use of such a tag, it would be available to them - otherwise the tag would be ignored by publisher and eReader software alike.

Applescript to add numbers to end of folders names

Hello,
I wrote a script that can rename files and add sequential numbers to them (below):
set theResult to display dialog "Please enter a name and a number separated by a space." default answer "enter image name here + space + 1" buttons {"Cancel", "OK"} default button 2 with icon 1
set theText to text returned of theResult
set theNumber to last word of theText
set theOffset to offset of theNumber in theText
set theName to text 1 through (theOffset - 2) of theText
set k to theNumber as integer
global theMaximumLength
tell application "Finder"
set theFiles to files of front window
set theMaximumLength to length of (k - 1 + (count theFiles) as text)
repeat with thisFile in theFiles
set theExtension to name extension of thisFile
set theNumber to my addZeros(k as text)
set the name of thisFile to theName & "_" & theNumber & "." & theExtension
set k to k + 1
end repeat
end tell
But I want to write a script that will JUST add and _1 to the end of multiple folders. In other words, take a bunch of folders already created like
342392501
342392401
340766601
340766201
339898101
339828301
339171301
337245001
337086803
337086802
337086801
and add _1 to all of them. BUT what would be even better would be a script that would duplicate each folder and ad an _1 to the original and then an _2 to the duplicate, and do that for all the folders in the finder.
Anyone? Thanks so much!!!!

Use code such as the following:
set the_list to "80
81
82"
tell application "Finder"
set target_folder to (choose folder)
repeat with this_number in paragraphs of the_list
set this_folder to (make new folder in target_folder with properties {name:this_number})
set name of (duplicate this_folder) to name of this_folder & "_2"
set name of this_folder to name of this_folder & "_1"
end repeat
end tell
Or to save a step if the creation dates don't need to match exactly:
set the_list to "80
81
82"
tell application "Finder"
set target_folder to (choose folder)
repeat with this_number in paragraphs of the_list
set this_folder to (make new folder in target_folder with properties {name:this_number & "_1"})
set this_folder to (make new folder in target_folder with properties {name:this_number & "_2"})
end repeat
end tell

Indesign Post Script name changing to back up file name

Hi all
I am in a pre press workflow that requires that I write a post-script file to a hot folder.
So saving as a post-script is the only option for our entire workflow to take place.
When saving the post script file from indesign , the name defaults to the back up file name which is
not similar to the original file name. We deal with an extremely large number of pages
and need for this file name to stay the same as the original not the back up. Manually putting these file names
in is a serious chance for error and takes too much time.
Does anyone know how to prevent the name from changing?
Thanks for any help.

You should be posting to the InDesign or Acrobat forum. Please repost there giving them your version of InDesign and Acrobat. Detail you method of creating the postscript file. You should be printing to file using the Adobe PDF printer instance. I only suggest the InDesign forum, since the print dialog box in InDesign is not a standard Windows Print dialog box.

Page numbering in InDesign CS5.5 not working

21 Chapters have been added to InDesign CS5.5's Book File feature. However, only the individual chapter numbers are shown, not the cumulative numbering system. Can anyone please help resolve this issue.

Eugene, sorry I can see how my question is not clear. My issue is this: I've added 21 chapters of a book to InDesign CS5.5 Book File. When I did so I expected all the chapters to paginate with consecutive numbering. But all I see in the column beside the chapter title are the page numbers (folio) that were created in each chapter. Since all my chapters start on the right hand page the beginning number is alway 2. Each chapter has used the same Master pages template and are spreads.
Hope this clarifies my issue. Thanks.

Disappearing footnote numbers in InDesign CS4

Hi all,
This is my very first post here, and hope that this is the right place to expose my problem. Forgive me if this is not so. The thing is, some footnotes numbers (both in the text body and in the footnote) are nowhere to be seen in the pdf version, although everything looks OK in the .indd file. This happens only to some footnote numbers (in my case those ending in 1-3, ie. fn. 1, 2, 3; 11, 12, 13; 21, 22, 23, etc.), and when the indd file originated from a Word document. It does not happen, as far as I know, with InDesign documents created 'from scratch'. I have already tried copying the whole text, creating a new indd file and pasting the text there, but with no success. , This may turn out to be a glitch in ID CS4, as per here (he works with a Mac version; I use the Windows one, ver. 6.0.3).
In case this is useful, I work with MS Word 2003 (compatibility plugin with Word 2007 installed), and my OS is XP Pro.
I hope that you can help me out with this. Thanks in advance!

I'm more than happy to share glory with Eugene -- and tickled that my initial hunch about special digits bore fruit. It turns out that the digits 1, 2, and 3 are in the PDF (or at least in the one I made from your .INX file): invisible in the PDF, they show up when I copy-and-paste them into Notepad.
Scholars cannot say enough good things about people like Peter Baker, who make available attractive fonts with the special characters essential for scholarship in the electronic era. It ain't easy, as anyone can see by lurking on the Typophile forums (especially Build). You might be interested in something John Hudson mentioned there, the set of fonts commissioned by the scholarly publisher E.J. Brill. Much of that thread concerned the economic consequences of Brill's plan to distribute the fonts gratis, in itself a reflection of the amount of highly skilled work that goes into producing high-quality, high-character-count fonts.
