Script needed for creating layers in Indesign.

Ok, this sounds simple and im sure it is.
Im currently getting all WEBSITE designs produced by our creative department in Indesign (speed, ease, lack of training whatever! etc etc)
Im currently layering these elements up manually which is OK, but im sure somebody knows of a script somewhere!!!,
Ive got a SUPERB script that when the indesign file IS LAYERED I can make it a photoshop PSD thats ALL smart objects etc so Its perfect for web psds. Its amazing, if i can find a script that layers the Indesign document as well PRIOR TO RUNNING THE OTHER SCRIPT, I can quite literally do nothing and just watch the machine do the work!!
I look forward to your replies!!

Hi Vamitul
Im sure its very simple but I never seem to be able to find the answer!!, basically if you have 1 page with say 40 text fields and 40 pictures on there, it would through default create it all on 1 layer which is the standard practice and how Indesign has always worked.
Once I have had the design approved thats been created in Indesign I need to get each element on a seperate layer Ie 80 layers. I currently do this manually! (So the next action I do is use a script I have that turns it into a LAYERED.psd).
I simply want to have a script which puts each element on a seperate layer.
Help me Vamitul, I get a good feeling about you!, you could be my saviour!

  • Macro/script needed for automatic layer naming

    Hi. I'm new to the forums, but I did a search for this and found something similar, but not quite right. I'm looking for a macro (that I've used in the past, so I know it exists) that will unlock and name the background layer after the filename AS YOU OPEN the file in Photoshop. For example: I'm in Bridge/Finder, and I drag a file named "istock123456.jpg" into Photoshop. As PS opens the file in its own window, instead of the only layer being locked and called "Background", it will be unlocked and called "istock123456.jpg". I've used this macro before at my old job, and it's extremely helpful for referencing back to original files when you need to.
    Can anyone help with this? As I mentioned, I found a similar discussion on here, but all that script does is create a new empty layer with the filename on top of the background layer, and you have to manually run it as it's not automatic like I'm talking about here.
    Thanks in advance.

    This should do it...
    activeDocument.activeLayer = activeDocument.layers[activeDocument.layers.length-1];
    if(activeDocument.activeLayer.isBackgroundLayer) activeDocument.activeLayer.name = activeDocument.name;
    Set up Scripts Event Manager to call this script on Open Document.

  • Help needed for creating 1 invoice for 2 different material types.

    Dear, Gurus
    I really need help here I have spent 3 days cracking my head trying to solve the problem. Problem is client was creating invoice with reference to order and while invoice was being made it would cause an invoice split. The materials involved are Trading Good and Service Material. They would like only 1 invoice. Note nothing was different except material group and item cat. of the material. payment terms billing dates partners everything is same.
    Current item config for Trading Good material is ZMPI-project item cat.
    Copying requirements   023  Item ord.ref. w/o AZ        Billing quantity     A
    Data VBRK/VBRP         000                                           Pos./neg. quantity   +
                                                                                    Pricing type         K
                                                                                    PricingExchRate type
                                                                                    Price source
    Current item config for service Material is TAD-Service
    Copying requirements   002  Item/order-related          Billing quantity     A
    Data VBRK/VBRP         001  Inv.split (sample)            Pos./neg. quantity   +
                                                                                    Pricing type         G
                                                                                    PricingExchRate type
                                                                                    Price source
    I was told to change Data VBRK/VBRP to 003 One Invoice which I did in both of these item cat. and yes they worked perfectly but at time of creating the invoice for service material the qty that showed was 11. Note: In sales order it is 1 qty. So I went back into the config of item cat TAD and changed copying requirement to 023 instead of 002 but nothing changed. Seems a qty of 10 is referencing something else which I have no idea what or where it is picking this up from. Just to see or test things I went into the sales order and tried changing the service material qty then a weird popup appears and says service order 12344456 has been blocked. (Seriously I have no idea why this would happen or should be existing at all.) Even if for some reason it is being referenced the service order that is existing is qty 1.
    I really really do need help and if someone can help me that would be god sent.
    Regards, Ali

    You did not mention what value is maintained in the field billing quantity in the copy control->Item settings. Check for the service item, what value is assigned. Put value A and re-test.
    Note that whenever you change any settings in configuration side, you need to create a new documents to test the results of the settings. You should not use the existing documents.
    When you say the document is blocked, then check the status of the sales order to find the reason for blocking (like credit block, approval etc)..

  • No. of Connections needed for creating universes from SAP BEx Queries

    Hello,
    I have 8 SAP BEx queries, my task to create to universe for all of these queries. I have created a datasource connection, my question here is can I use the same connection for all the queries by changing datasource connection and selecting the new query or is it suggestable to create 8 datasource connections in universe designer??
    please let me know if you need any more info.
    Your reply is highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Naresh

    HI,
    You need to create 8 connection for 8 BW queries.There is  one to one mapping in the universe.If you change the existing connection source then it will not work for earlier query.
    Other thing you can check like you have 8 queries then instead of creating 8 universe if possible then merge some queries in the single bw query and then create universe.

    There may be, but I have not seen any reference to Java Scripting with regard to Premiere Elements.
    Consequently, you may make better gains posting your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements forum since Photoshop Elements is part of your workflow equation and is the most likely path to discovery of documentation in this area.

    There is nothing to click on export.  It is just text.  YOu also cannot click on anything that does not have an event associated.  Many events ae hidden in JS code.
    None of the objects in your HTML have IDs so they will not be easy to find.

  • Tool needed for creating the package structure

    I need to create a package structure of an existing application. I don�t know much of UML and so I was just wondering if there's any tool available to do so.I researched and came to one such tool(not free to use) i.e
    http://javacentral.compuware.com/pasta/
    Please let me know if you guys know of something similar to this.
    Thanks

    No. There should be an option to 'import java sources' somewhere in the 'file' menu (I think). Unpack the WAR. You will need to locate the JAVA source files, and then import from ArgoUML. The classes will all come in. You simply have to drag which ones you want onto the applicable blank diagram(s) you create.

  • Is there a script available for 'live' endnotes in Indesign 5.5?

    I want to export books to epub with live endnotes (1,2,3,4,) displayed chapter by chapter at the end of the ebook. There are usually around 10 chapters and 700 notes. How can this be done? I have ongoing books to do like this, so I need an automated solution, is there a script available to do this?. Until now (for non epub books) I have been importing text from word, stripping the notes, and organising ‘dead’ notes, at the end of the book. What is the best way to import word files and keep dynamic links alive in the epub?  Thanks a lot for your help.

    InDesign doesn't support any endnote scheme at all, so all you could do is create hyperlinks to and from the note.
    The same answer for your index query, actually, although there you are going to run into another problem: there is no way the page numbers in the index are going to "update" live as the user resizes his screen, toggles the font, changes the font size etc.

    Hello,
    If you review the FDM Workbench Admin Guide there is a sample one already.
    There are only a few differences between Oracle and SQL:
    1. The provider string (which can be generated by looking at a .UDL file in a text editor)
    2. Oracle DB's are case sensitive, and by default everything non-quoted is pushed to uppercase (which is pretty much everything for FDM)
    Thank you.

  • Help/Example needed for creating JMSQueues/JMSTopics using the MBean API

    I am trying to create JMSQueues programmatically using the MBean API. When
    I use MBeanHome.createAdminMBean(), a queue appears in the root of the
    config file. This is progress, but the queue is in the wrong place! I need
    the queues to be part of my JMS server's "destinations" as seen on the
    console.
    So now I am trying to use createConfigurationMBean() instead, but I can't
    figure out what the "parent" parameter should be- no documentation! My
    first guess was that the parent might be the JMSServer, but that doesn't
    work.
    Anyone have example code to insert JMSQueues and JMSTopics into a specific
    JMS server's destinations?
    Here is the code I tried... All goes well until the final
    createConfigurationMBean call, where it throws a MBeanCreationException:
    // Get the MBeanHome bean
    Object obj = jndiContext.lookup("weblogic.management.adminhome");
    MBeanHome mbeanhome = (MBeanHome) javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow
    (obj, MBeanHome.class);
    // Get the server MBean
    JMSServerMBean jmsServerMB =
    (JMSServerMBean)mbeanhome.getMBean("examplesJMSServer",
    JMSServerMBean.class);
    // Create the new Queue
    JMSQueueMBean jmsQMB = (JMSQueueMBean)mbeanhome.createConfigurationMBean
    ("weblogic.examples.jms.fooQueue", "JMSQueue", jmsServerMB);

    Ok, I still don't see how I can do it differently with the admin tool. If
    you want to see the commands I'm using, I can post them, but the basic one
    is shown below in the previous message. We're trying to set up a script so
    that developers can just run it and properly configure WebLogic with the
    right components.

    My commands look like this:
    java weblogic.Admin -url 127.0.0.1:7001 -username system -passwordweblogic
    CREATE -mbean "mydomain:Type=JMSQueue,Name=MyJMSQueue"
    I create this, I create the JMSServer MBean, then do and INVOKE (insteadof
    CREATE) and call the addDestination method, adding the JMS Queue MBeanthat
    I created previously, using the same naming scheme as in the above CREATE.

    *Helpful tutorial sites
    *Or any other sites or tips you think i should know.
    Extra Info On Me:
    I dont know if this matters or not probably doesnt but I know how to handle and make a site, ive had some dbz rpgs back in the day(kinda rusty but i can manage).
    Some more recent information:

    It has stuff on Java 3D, networking, games for mobile phones/PDAs, isometric tile games, etc. It also has an appendix on loaders and Java Web Start.
    Also, if you want to create 3D games, you might want to check out
    http://www.3dcafe.com/asp/freestuff.asp
    They have free 3D models in various formats.
    For more 3D links and tutorials try:

    For a 3D tool, I like Anim8or. That it's free helps a lot ;)

    And... ms paint!?! You will not be able to draw decent graphics with that. Adobe Photoshop Elements is a nice, low-cost program for 2D images.
    There are lots of sites devoted to java game programming. Try the google. Love the google. Google is your friend. ;)

  • Need help creating PDF in InDesign w/ comment tools available in Reader!!

    I'm trying to create a PDF that you can use the "comment" and other proofing tools in Reader. I've tried using Acrobat Pro to adjust the settings so the "comment" and other tools are available in Reader but it isn't working.
    Here's what I'm really trying to do (if anyone might have an amazing idea). My company produces a 1300 pg catalog that the entire departmentaround 20 people in totalhave to proof. In an effort to reduce how much paper we use in our proofing process I'm trying to move the department to an "electronic" proofing process as much as possible.
    I know that in Acrobat Pro you can comment and mark up a PDF and that you're able to do the same in Acrobat Reader (only the artist have Pro, the rest of the department just has Reader). I just can't seem to find a way to take my InDesign document and allow the "comment" tool to be accessible in Reader.
    Anyone know? I know there is a "Review" session thing you can set up, but that's turning into a huge pain since Adobe doesn't want to work with our Mac based network...blah blah, way over my head.
    Thanks for the help! (Sorry to be so long winded...)
    Cara Brooke

    Open the PDF in Acrobat Pro 7 or later.
    Under the
    Comments menu, select
    Enable Commenting and Analysis in Adobe Reader....
    This will spawn an
    Save As... dialog. Save to a new filename is recommended (such as
    [filename] for review.pdf), although you can save over the existing file if you choose or to another location.
    Send the resulting PDF for review.
    So long as the reviewer has access to Acrobat Reader 7 or later (or whatever version your Acrobat Pro is), there should not be any issues with them adding comments.
    I use this all the time, exchanging files for review between Dallas, TX (on OSX) and Birmingham, AL (on Windows).
    Older versions of Acrobat Reader will not work.
