This is a little sample of xml-text we get from external sources. There's no link between the false "footnote-ref [1]" in de text and the false "endnote text".
Is there a possibility to convert those "notes" to real notes in de text, but not to end-notes? Sometimes these kind of notes extend to more than 100.

I'm getting a "Error Number: 2" "Error String: myDoc is undefined" in my script.
I tweaked some scripts so they traverse my entire book, and open up every section (document) in my book and run the code for each section.ext
The code runs great and opens and closes sections where it doesn't find text to add links to, but once it opens a document and finds text that it CAN add links to, it throws that error. Below is my code:
main();
exit();
function main() { var myBook = app.activeBook, myDocs = myBook.bookContents.everyItem().getElements(), myDoc, myHyperlinkStyle, myCount = 0; for (var i=0; i< myDocs.length; i++) { myDoc = app.open(File("\\\\computerOnNetwork\\c$\\Folder\\" + myDocs[i].name)); myHyperlinkStyle = myDoc.characterStyles.item("linkstyle"); try{ var script = app.activeScript; }catch(err) { var script = File(err.fileName); } var myScriptFolderPath = script.path; var myFindChangeFile = new File(myScriptFolderPath + "/SearchTextAndUrls.txt"); //mac path for users desktop //File.openDialog("Choose the file containing the tab separated list"); //alert(myFindChangeFile) myFindChangeFile = File(myFindChangeFile); var myResult = myFindChangeFile.open("r", undefined, undefined); if(myResult == true){ app.findTextPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing; app.changeTextPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing; //Loop through the find/change operations. do{ //read 1 line into myLine myLine = myFindChangeFile.readln(); myFindChangeArray = myLine.split("\t"); //The first field in the line is the value to find myFindVal = myFindChangeArray[0]; // second is the url myFindUrl = myFindChangeArray[1]; doSearchAndReplace(myFindVal, myFindUrl, app.activeDocument); }while(myFindChangeFile.eof == false); myFindChangeFile.close(); // reset search app.findTextPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing; app.changeTextPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing; } alert("Done!

Hi everyody,
I try to select my way by using two dropdownlist.
Each item on the first list change the second dropdownlist
example
List A List B List C List D etc..
ItemA1 -> call ListB ItemB1 ItemC1
ItemA2 -> call ListC ItemB2 ItemC2
itemA3 -> call ListD ItemB3 ItemC3
itemA4 -> call ListE ItemB4 ItemC4
I scripted like this :
var myList0= ["ItemA1", "ItemA2", "ItemA3", "ItemA4"];
var myListA = ["ItemB1", "ItemB2", "ItemB3", "ItemB4"];
var myListB = etc ....
var columns = myOption2.add("group");
var dimC = [0, 0, 100, 50];
var col1 = columns .add('dropdownlist', dimC , myList0);
col1.onChange = function()
{
if (col1.selection == 0)
{
var col2 = columns .add('dropdownlist', dimC, myListA);
return col2;
}
else if (col1.selection == 1)
{
var col2 = columns .add('dropdownlist', dimC, myListB);
}
etc ....
}
finally, it happens that my second dropdownlist overlap the first, and i want it separately.
Please, if anyone have an idea ?
best regards

Adobe Extension Manager CS5.5 (Version 5.5.163) refuses to install the ScriptBay extension, with the following message:
"The extension 'ScriptBay' does not contain valid signature. The extension will not be installed."
It then goes on to informs me, one by one, that it will not install the extension in each of the CS applications.
I have checked and unchecked the warning options in the Preferences panel with no change.
Is ScriptBay no longer installable? Am I missing a trick here?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

I'm having a bit of an issue when trying to select my target in the ExtendScript ToolKit. When I select InDesign as the target, it launches the application but ESTK sits there with a message box saying "Waiting; press ESC to abort..." It appears that it's not able to communicate with the process at all, and I'd love a little help debugging this. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
Hi all,
I highly doubt that this can be done but....
Any chance of creating and saving a file without it being added to the recent files list.

Hi InDesign Scripting Experts!
I'm desparetly looking for some help to get this issue resolved.
Essentially I've a lot of PDF forms that've been designed by using InDesign CS4 and then converted to an interactive PDF via Adobe Lifecycle. The final 2 page PDF form has multiple textfields, a drop down and a save button. The users partially fill-in the form, select their name from the dropdown and then hit the save button prior to sending the PDF form to the client.
The Save button does the following:
- Passes on the data from the drop down to a label
- Hides the drop down and
- finally, hides itself ('Save' button)
I understand InDesign CC has a lot of the Livecycle capability built-it. Hence I'm trying to design the inteactive PDF within InDesign CC. The textfields, dropdown etc. are easily done. The part that I'm stuck on is to get the 'Save' button to perform the above listed tasks.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Hello forum members,
Sorry for my english, this is not my native language.
I use a Script from http://www.typomedia.org/adobe/indesign/fontcatalog/ to get all fonts from %Systemroot%/Fonts and the font folder of InDesign and write a simple text with these fonts. To test the script I run it under CS5 and CS5 Debug. It found only 6 of over 900 fonts. In CS5 Debug any time I run the Script, I collect two times the assert:
JavaScriptDataConverter::ScriptDataToVariant - Untranslated key string: System Font
Eng: Script providers must return untranslated strings to INX and translated strings to scripting clients.
QE: Please report this assert as a 2/2 bug
..\..\..\source\components\script\javascript\JavaScriptDataConverter.c pp (101)
In my first step I consult the developer of the script, but he has no idea why I get the assert. He also test his script under InDesign CC but he has no problems.
My InDesign CS5 and CS5 Debug versions are installed on the same system Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard SP 1.
I think the assert is the reason I get only 6 fonts in the normal CS5 Version.
Maybe the problem occur, because its a Server System or there are interdependency with other components because its an developer machine.
Have someone an idea or a similar issue, how I can clear my problem?
Thanks for your attention

Hello everyone:
I am using this code to try to create a color that can be used to fill a button:
function MakeButtonColor()
{
var TheColor;
var TheDocument = app.activeDocument;
var myError;
try
{
TheColor = TheDocument.colors.item("DPSButtonColor");
var ColorName = TheColor.name;
}
catch(myError)
{
TheColor = TheDocument.colors.add({name: "DPSButtonColor", colorSpace:ColorSpace.RGB, model:ColorModel.process,colorValue:[0,137,208]});
}
var ButtonColor1 = TheColor;
alert("ButtonColor is " + ButtonColor1.name);
}
I am taking this directly from the Scripting Guide with only a very few modifications.
But I never ever see the last two statements executed. I've tried all sorts of things to make this work and it just doesn't want to work.
Anyone have any ideas why it won't work and what I can do to fix it?
Hello guys, I need a help.
I'm trying to make an index to my magazine, but I just don't know how to do it.
Look this image:
http://i.imgur.com/O2DhDg6.png
I have the "ID", that is the product ID, and the "GROUP".
Now, look this image:
http://i.imgur.com/gbumYdi.png
I want the index looks like that. How I get auto all id products, put ther, and the group and the page too?!
It's so many products, I can't put one by one.
Thanks in advanced.
My Script is below:
#targetengine "session"
main();
function main(){
var myApplicationEventListener = app.eventListeners.add("beforePrint",myEventInfo);
}
function myEventInfo(myEvent){
alert("Yes");
}
I can popup the message box, while i'm print the doc, but when I get document into a book, then I use print book or print selected document, can't popup a message box, how can I even popup the message box even I print the book or print the selected document???
Is there a script that will “call out” (with labels) the text attributes? Everything from character style to paragraph settings (like space after)?
I am looking for an automated solution that works like Colorbreaker (http://www.gluon.com/product-colorbreaker-id.html) for inDesign CC. I have a lot of documents that I need to specify the type and color for use in a Brand Guideline book.
The following concerns the ExtendScript Toolkit (ESTK) CS6.
I just tried to search in the ESTK (in a jsx file) using regular expressions, but failed.
I'd like to find all places where a certain word is written, no matter whether it's written as one or two words (with space between the words).
Take the following two lines of code as a sample javascript file:
test word
testword
I'd like to find both of the words, so I enter "test ?word" in the Find & Replace window, check "Match Regular Expressions", and press the OK button. The question mark meaning zero or one occurrence of the preceding character (the space). The result from the ESTK is "No matches found".
Instead of using the question mark I tried to set the number of allowed spaces using the {n,m} notation:
test {0,1}word
...but to no avail.
Using \s{0,1} to indicate the space did not work either.
I also tried to add start and end markers for the search text, and adding .* for every other character that could start and end the lines (in my own longer code file).
^.*test ?word.*$
Since all of these searches works in "Expresso" (a test tool for regular expressions) I ended up pasting the code into expresso and pressed the "Run match" button there...
Was I doing something wrong in the ESTK, or does regular expressions just not work in the find window?
