Scripts export information about cross references

scripts export information about cross references in the active document and saves the result to csv/txt file (es: LOIC script Links2CSV; http://www.loicaigon.com/en/solutions-en/downloads/).
I am working with a multi chapter user manual with many cross references, we need to export cross references before translating document and create it after translation in the same place.
Thanks,

Hi,
Thank you for the suggestion, but our company is world-wide and each subsidiary deals with different staff and editors (who only some use Adobe software, but all use Office). I will pass along the info though.
This would be a good Feature Request for a future release of InDesign!
Thanks again.

Cross-References coming from Word in FM 7.2

Hi Folks,
I have a problem with the Cross-References. I create an EDD and Read/Write rules, and generate a conversion table. With it I'm converting all the my documentation in MS Word to Structured FM 7,2. It works well, but there two main problems that I can't solve. I spent a lot of time reading the Structure application Developer Guide, but I can't find a solution.
First one is a minor problem that I can solve with a script but, maybe I'm doing something wrong on FM and it is easy to fix on the conversion table. When I apply the conversion table it generate without problems the RootElement, and apply tags for the paragraphs and Character formats, but I can't do that put other tags that are not related with text. I mean, my DTD need this structure:
<book>
<body>
<heading1>xxxxx</heading1>
</body>
</book>
and I obtain it:
<book>
<heading1>xxxxx</heading1>
</book>
I don't know if I can modify Rules, or EDD or Conversion table, to add the intermediate tag when use Structure Current Document
Second one is a blocking one. I generate the XML with the tags and fix any problem on it. It works great and I obtain a XML :
<book><heading1 Id = "i1003066"><bookmark
type = "38548: Heading 1: 1. This is the title"/>This is the title</heading1>
<paragraph>This is the text of the Title <reference Idref = "i1003066" type = "Page"/> and it bla bla bla</paragraph></book>
But when I try to re-open the XML with my structured application I obtain a log error:
"Error at line 17, char 31, Message: ID attribute 'i1003066' was referenced but never declared"
and a warning about cross-references missing (they working before save it as XML). File open and all is fine, except that references are missing and when I try to update the Reference dialog box to find other file is open with this message:
1 Unresolved Cross-References to File: Current
And ask me to find the "Current" file where point the reference. All the references in the document appears missing.
Must I have two set of files, one FM for generate the PDF, and the XML for generate the help with my XLS? It is not possible re-open the XML on Framemaker and don't lost the references?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,

Hi Van,
You wrote:
>> You need to DELETE "Xref" . . . This states that the reference element is a Frame cross-reference element; you should not include another name.
That may or may not be true. If the element names are different in the XML (DTD) than FrameMaker (EDD), this is the mechanism by which you translate names. It may be that in this case, the EDD element name is Xref, but the DTD element name is reference.
You also wrote:
>> Maybe this will help clear things up, but it may be unreasonable to expect that cross-references in Word will translate cleanly to structured FrameMaker.
In this case, I couldn't agree more. Esperanzas, I would recommend that you limit your faith in the conversion process, because there are many variables that will likely get mistranslated. Unless you are willling to do some programming with the FDK to clean up afterwards, I would expect that all cross-references should be recreated manually after import.

How to create ebook chapter cross-references with inDesign CS6?

Hi, I'm creating a fairly technical ebook, and would like the reader to be able to easily link "See Chapter X for more information" with Chapter X. My problem is that all the "See Chapter X for more information" phrases are set up as a character style... it doesn't seem that I can easily cross-reference because I didn't set these phrases up using paragraph styles (which doesn't make much sense to me as each cross-reference would need to be a new paragraph).
I think I just need to anchor the "See Chapter X for more information," phrases, but that isn't proving to be easy to position, the text anchor boxes are showing up in crazy places... having a hard time figuring out how to position anchored text.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Conrad,
I'm running CS 5.5 so can't be sure of the differences with your version.
The problem here is simply one of ID terminology.
I suspect what you want to do is this:
1. Select your destination text with the type tool. The destination text is what you want the reference to link to. Then, in the Hyperlinks control menu menu, choose "New Hyperlink Destination" and give it a simple and unique name.
2. Find the text that you want to connect to the destination text. Select it and in the same control panel choose "New Hyperlink..." You'll have the choice of selecting from (what will ultimately be) a number of text anchors.
I hope that makes sense. I quickly checked to see if ID exports a working cross-reference in EPUB and it does, although I didn't have time to examine the HTML.

Export information from Flash

Hi all
I just wanted to know if anybody knows if it is possible to
export timing information, from the custom graph animator or
general information of animation key frames to either an xheet, or
even to have the information to be inported to after effects. A
rough animation can be timed out in Flash then the timing
information outputed and imported to After Effects, either manually
from an xheet or from an automatic import.
any thoughts on this would be great

You might want to look at the information about control references again. You pass a control reference to a subVI and that subVI will update the control as it executes. That is exactly what you are looking for. There have been numerous examples posted to the forum posted on control references but if you need another, here's a real simple one.

Cross Reference an Object??

How do I cross reference an object using Indesign CS4?
I've got a PDF that I've dropped into a frame, which I applied an Object Style. Now I need to create a cross references in the document, that point to the PDF (a chart). I've got to do this with several PDF's.
When I go to create a cross reference, I can only apply it a Paragraph Style or a Text Anchor, I don't get an Object Style to choose from.
I could put some text in behind the chart, and arrage the chart to the front, but i'd rather create a cross reference to the Object itself.
What do i do?

Cross-references only point to text - either a text anchor or a paragraph - not to objects.
If your placed PDF is in an anchored frame, you can point the cross-reference to the paragraph in which the frame is anchored.
If your placed PDF is not in an anchored frame, you can do what you suggest above, or you have these other options:
* place the PDF into a text frame
* create a text frame and group it with the PDF; point the cross-reference to the paragraph in the text frame, or insert a text anchor in the text and point the cross-reference to it.
* you can paste the grouped PDF and text frame object into a text frame to make it an anchored frame.
The idea of a cross-reference is usually to point to a caption or heading. You can't point to the text in a placed PDF because it's really a graphic. You'll probably want a caption to identify the chart. The caption is the text you cross-reference to. The caption can be in the paragraph that holds the anchor, in a text frame grouped with the graphic, in a paragraph above or below the graphic, or in an anchored frame that's positioned near the graphic.
If your layout will not reflow, you probably don't need an anchored frame, but if the layout will reflow, you'll want to use the ability of an anchored to move with the text.
Read about cross-references and anchored frames in Help. If your caption will be numbered, such as "Figure 3," also read about numbered lists and numbering properties of paragraph styles.

Convert Cross-Reference to Text

Does anybody have a script that will convert cross-references to text? In other words, I want to be able to remove the linkage of the cross-reference but keep the static text in place.
Editorial comment: I set up on my local computer several books in CS6 and used cross-references, and everything worked fine. Then I moved the files to a network location and started suffering that painful slowdown that I had experienced in previous versions of InDesign. (I foolishly believed Adobe would have fixed this by now. My mistake.)

I'm guessing that the op want to convert the cross-references that you set in the Hyperlinks panel. Try this:
var xrefs = app.documents[0].crossReferenceSources.everyItem().getElements();
for (var i = xrefs.length-1; i > -1; i--){
xrefs[i].sourceText.insertionPoints[-1].contents = xrefs[i].sourceText.contents;
xrefs[i].remove();

How do I preserve cross reference text when exporting to XML?

I am exporting my Framemaker documents to XML. However, when I open the raw XML, the reference formatting is obviously gone. So instead of seeing, say, see Figure 6. I now see, see .
Is there some way to preserve this on export?
Help would be much appreceated!

Josh,
The normal behavior is to have an empty element with the ID/IDRef markup that allows the xref element to be resolved again afterwards, by whatever post-processing step you put the XML through. The text of a cross-reference is a FrameMaker formatting artifact (not unlike a paragraph format, etc.) and is intentionally discarded during export. If you reimport the XML with the empty element, FM will re-resolve the xref, and then will restore the text using whatever format it originally had (the format name is also stored as markup).
If you want to preserve the element tag of the xref, I don't think there is any way to preserve the text, unless you write an import/export API client. You could possibly use an XSLT stylesheet to repopulate the text in some cases, but this seems like a process fraught with many complications.
If you do not care about the element tag, the manual says that you can just unwrap it, then you'll get the xref text. Here is a (rough) snip from the Structure Developers Guide:
Translating FrameMaker cross-reference elements to text in markup
You may not want your FrameMaker cross-reference elements to remain elements in the
markup representation—you can choose to translate them to text instead. To do so, use
this rule:
fm element "fmtag" unwrap;
where fmtag is the FrameMaker element tag for a cross-reference element.
All of this does beg the following question, though... why do you want to do this, especially if the text is referencing figure numbers, page numbers, etc. that have no relevance in the markup? Normally, it is expected that preservation of the markup is the essential thing, allowing the text to be regenerated later by whatever process uses the XML (perhaps including FM). If you drop the element tag, the actual link will be permanently lost.

Export cross-references and hyperlinks from InDesign to Word?

Hi,
I am wondering if it is possible to export text from InDesign (CS5) to Word (2010) keeping all cross-references active?
This would be really nice if so as we do a lot of translations for literature and need to keep moving back and forth with editors using Word.
If anyone has any information on this, please let me know!
Thank you.

I am using the Order Analysis Toolkit and want to get more information about the compensation for "Reference Signal Processing", which is scarce in the manuals, the website and the examples installed with the toolkit.

I am using the Order Analysis Toolkit and want to get more information about the compensation for "Reference Signal Processing", which is scarce in the manuals, the website and the examples installed with the toolkit.
In particular, I am analyzing the example "Even Angle Reference Signal Processing (Digital Tacho, DAQmx).vi", whose documentation I am reproducing in the following:
DESCRIPTIONS:
This VI demonstrates how to extract even angle reference signals and remove the slow-roll errors. It uses DAQmx VIs to acquire sound or vibration signals and a digital tachometer signal. This VI includes a two-step process: acquire data at low rotational speed to extract even angle reference; use the even angle reference to remove the errors in the vibration signal acquired at normal operation.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Run the VI.
2. On the DAQ Configurations tab, specify the sample rate, samples per channel, device and channel configurations, and tachometer channel information.
NOTE: You need to use DSA PXI-447x/PXI-446x and PXI TIO device in a PXI chassis to run this example. The DSA device must be in slot 2 of the PXI chassis.
3. Switch to Extract Even Angle Reference tab. Specify the number of samples to acquire and the # of revs in reference which determines the number of samples in even angle reference. Click Start to take a one-shot data acquisition of the vibration and tachometer signals. After the acquisition, you can see the extracted even angle references in Even Angle Reference.
4. Switch to the Remove Slow-roll Errors tab. Click Start to acquire data continuously and view the compensate results. Click Stop in this tab to stop the acquisition.
ORDER ANALYSIS VIs USED IN THIS EXAMPLE:
1. SVL Scale Voltage to EU.vi
2. OAT Digital Tacho Process.vi
3. OAT Get Even Angle Reference.vi
4. OAT Convert to Even Angle Signal.vi
5. OAT Compensate Even Angle Signal.vi
My question is: How is the synchronization produced at the time of the compensation ? How is it possible to eliminate the errors in a synchronized fashion with respect to the surface of the shaft bearing in mind that I am acquired data at a low rotation speed in order to get the "even angle reference" and then I use it to remove the errors in the vibration signal acquired at normal operation. In this application both operations are made in different acquisitions, therefore the reference of the correction signal is lost. Is it simply compensated without synchronizing ?
Our application is based on FPGA and we need to clarity those aspects before implementing the procedure.
Solved!

Cross reference not working properly in epub exported from IDCC

Hi,
I'm not sure whether this is a known issue within ID so forgive me for bringing it up if it is. I couldn't find any satisfying answer on this forum, hence my question.
It seems that cross references between the xhtml-docs created from split ID document during the epub export don't work properly. They link to the text anchors specified as relative links. My editor uses software compliant to many e-reader platforms that removes all the relative links between the xhtml files within any epub and replaces them by absolute hyperlinks (http://). The result is... broken links all over. Their specification asks for the the anchor entires in the content.opf file instead of the relative links. Is there a way to work it out in InDesign and have the content.opf file contain the navigation to the anchors in xhtml files within the epub?
I'm working with IDCC 9.1 btw. Would appreciate any help...
Kind regards, Kasia

Hi,
   Not sure exactly where you gone wrong.
   If you want the running sum to start from beginning for each YEAR and each LINES. Use this
           =RunningSum([Sales revenue]; ([Year];[Lines]))   => Need Square brackets around Year and Lines. This forum site doesn't display square bracket correctly
   If you want the running sum to start from beginning only for each LINES (regardless of YEARS). Use this
            =RunningSum([Sales revenue]; ([Lines]))
   Not sure why you added ROW in your functions. Hope this help. Works for me, just tested using my efashion with the same structure are yours.

How to get information about cursor? I had only a reference on it.

Hello
How to get information about cursor, that I receive in my procedure as a reference. For example I need to know, a number of columns. I know nothing about this cursor, except the link on it.
Best Regards, Kostya Proskudin!

However, I would seriously reconsider what you are trying to achieve.
It looks like you are trying to write some ultimately generic cursor processor. i.e. pass any cursor and process it in some generic way.
Good design should include knowledge of what is expected to be passed and that knowledge can be put into the code.
Generic code is inherently difficult to maintain and debug and will never 100% deal with all possible situations e.g. even if you know the table being queried in the cursor you can't rely on the data dictionary to give you all the returned columns if some of the returned columns of the cursor are computed columns.
Be careful you aren't writing something that's going to cause problems later.

Looking for a script to connect bodytext to footnote and cross-references

Hi,
Need to do the following:
I was provided with separate (tagged-text) files: bodytext, (foot)notes and cross-references. Now I am looking for a solution (script?) that can do the following:
to restore the connection between the body-text, the footnotes and te cross-references after placing these in a document in Indesign.
The cross-references should appear (in anchored text-frames) in the margin and the notes in a separate frame at the bottom of the page. If possible in the same way as footnotes in Indesign appear, but in a separate frame to be able to do some more formatting than native footnotes would accept.
I have tested the plugin: Side Heads from InTools, and tis works well with Indesign files tthat contain footnotes. But this doesn't work with separately placed footnotes from a tagged-text-file, as they re not knotted together.
I can't do any scripting myself.
I would appreciate any help, and I am looking forward to your response...

The first thing to do is:
regexp "match regexp = ([0-9]+)" $_cli_result match count
if $count eq 0
exit 0
end
The second is a bit more challenging. I think this will work:
cli command "show call active voice br"
foreach line $_cli_result "\n"
regexp "^([0-9a-zA-Z]+) : " $line match callid
if $_regexp_result eq 1
continue
end
regexp "^dur 1d" $line
if $_regexp_result eq 1
cli command "show call active voice br | section $callid"
syslog msg "$_cli_result"
end
