Hi All,
I am using Indesign server to create documents which contains text, images & tables. My job is to create & export documents to pdf. Document are sometimes contains 300 plus pages. And cs2 server process this jobs one after the other in queue ..may be 100 jobs in a queue. Here after certain amount of time a 'out of memory' error comes up and Indesign server gets crashed(its around after processing 30-40 jobs).
I have taken care to delete all allocated meomary in my program through New- delete pair. Still after each job allocated memory to Indesign keeps increasing.
Is there any way so that I can purge memory from Indesign after my job complition? I tried to use 'PurgeMemory' over IDocumentList but its not that effective.
Any suggestions are most welcommed!

Thanks,
Rahul.

Hi everybody,

 

For a customer project we're looking for a developer with experience in InDesign Server Scripting (we have a InDesign Plugin, but not much experience with Server Scripting) and I hope to find somebody here in this forum.

For the project several InDesign and InCopy document with simple content must be opened and read and the content must be written in one final InDesign Document. Simple for the InCopy documents, more complicated for the InDesign files, they can include images.

 

If you're interested in helping us with this project, please answer here or send me a mail to kfriese@dataplan.de.

 

Thanks

Klaus

The systemrequirements are maybe not up to date.

There i can not see the R2 version supported.

 

Are all newer releases supported?

Greetings,

 

I would like to inquire about a possible performance problem regarding combining multiple IDML / INDT files or copying pages via Indesign Server Scripting API.

Note that we are using Indesign Server CS6 (with latest 8.0.2 update).

 

Currently, we are using the following line to merge multiple indesign documents (IDML/INDT)

document.pages.everyItem().duplicate(LocationOptions.AFTER, baseDocument.pages[lastPageIndex])

 

Above line performs what is needed (textframes are threaded, etc), however there is a possible issue with its performance which degrades horribly especially after several merging operations and if there are several pages in the base document or the document to be copied (though the performance is more affected when the document to be copied has many pages)

 

Testing done:

#1 For the below test, Notice that the merging is not constant and degrades per minute (performance may possible degrade when using a larger document)

 

start	end	time elapsed for pages.everyItem.duplicate		operation done
with a base of 42 page INDT document
12:13:33	12:15:28	0:01:55		add 42 page INDT file
12:15:29	12:18:35	0:03:06		add another 42 page INDT file
12:18:37	12:22:53	0:04:16		add another 42 page INDT file
12:22:54	12:28:15	0:05:21		add another 42 page INDT file
12:28:17	12:34:30	0:06:13		add another 42 page INDT file
		TOTAL
		0:20:51

 

with a base of 42 page IDML document
12:13:58	12:16:44	0:02:46		add 42 page IDML file
12:16:56	12:20:59	0:04:03		add another 42 page IDML file
12:21:11	12:26:21	0:05:10		add another 42 page IDML file
12:26:35	12:32:39	0:06:04		add another 42 page IDML file
12:32:50	12:40:06	0:07:16		add another 42 page IDML file
		TOTAL
		0:25:19

 

Time elapsed is 20 minutes for INDT and 25 minutes for IDML. it adds ~1 minute for each document added (for a 42 page, this duration may increase when no of pages increase).

 

#2 For below test, we noticed that INDT seems to perform faster than IDML (though it is larger by 10x and is a binary file)

with a base of 838 page IDML document
14:30:44	14:55:40	0:24:56		add 42 page IDML file
with a base of 838 page INDT document
15:14:55	15:23:40	0:08:45		add 42 page INDT file

 

#3 For below test, notice that the merging degrades by several minutes even if you just increase the number of pages.

Notice that we added the documents according to increasing no of pages as we found out that it performs significantly faster than not (saved several hours)

I also incorporated the doc.save and gc calls but it still doesn't help reduce the whole merging process to several minutes. (still takes 11 hours just to merge 33 documents with total of 1046 pages)

Note that we also checked binary merging (merging small files first but the resulting time is much larger than above)

 

with a base of 1 page IDML document
15:58:45	15:58:52	0:00:07		add 1 page IDML file
15:58:53	15:59:00	0:00:07		add 1 page IDML file
15:59:01	15:59:08	0:00:07		add 2 page IDML file
15:59:09	15:59:18	0:00:09		add 2 page IDML file
15:59:19	15:59:29	0:00:10		add 3 page IDML file
				perform $.gc  and doc.save into temp IDML
15:59:35	15:59:42	0:00:07		add 4 page IDML file
15:59:44	15:59:52	0:00:08		add 6 page IDML file
15:59:54	16:00:05	0:00:11		add 6 page IDML file
16:00:08	16:00:21	0:00:13		add 6 page IDML file
16:00:23	16:00:49	0:00:26		add 7 page IDML file
				perform $.gc  and doc.save into temp IDML
16:00:53	16:01:03	0:00:10		add 7 page IDML file

16:01:22	16:02:18	0:00:56		add 10 page IDML file
16:02:22	16:04:12	0:01:50		add 17 page IDML file

				perform $.gc  and doc.save into temp IDML
17:58:58	18:26:26	0:27:28		add 52 page IDML file
18:26:42	19:11:57	0:45:15		add 63 page IDML file
19:12:16	20:08:49	0:56:33		add 64 page IDML file
20:09:09	21:13:22	1:04:13		add 67 page IDML file
21:13:59	22:39:28	1:25:29		add 67 page IDML file
				perform $.gc  and doc.save into temp IDML
22:40:15	0:35:17	1:55:02		add 84 page IDML file
0:35:48	3:30:53	2:55:05		add 98 page IDML file
		TOTAL
		11:26:36

 

Notice that I have already added $.gc and doc.save per 5 documents however the effect is lost/not significant around the 4th/5th time.

 

Please confirm if there is something that can be done to resolve above Indesign's performance for merging / copying pages from one document to another.

or suggest alternative code or some setting that we may have missed.

Hi,

 

Now I am working on a solution of converting indd file to pdf on server side in our product.

Since this process may cost time I choose LBS with job queue, but after running "startup-indesign-server-CORBA-4instances.bat" there four cmd windows will popup to listen to request.

What I want is that can I hide these window after they started? I don't want customers to close this windows for their careless.

I have tried to write a .vbs script to hide the cmd window but failed.

Anyone has an idea?

 

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

   I am new to Adobe Indesign Server and just got the trial version and am starting to play around with it. I need the Adobe Indesign server to generate preview from .indd packaged files. Currently I am uploading the .indd files directly on the Indesign server to generate previews. Any idea on how to upload/download files from Indesign Server using their client interface. I am currently using their sampleclient and eventually plan to use the SOAP api for building a client. Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Hello,

 

 

 

I'm having an issue where I've downloaded the trial version of InDesign CC Server 2014 for use with Sitecore's PXM module. According to their instructions, if I were to modify the .msc file located at C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server 2014 by setting the port setting to a specific value, it should then listen on that port provided I restart the service. The InDesignServerService is running according to the task manager, but when I check via netstat, I don't see it at all.

 

Is anyone familiar with issue and if so, what might I be missing? Any help is appreciated.

 

 

 

Thank you,

 

Anthony

I have an instance of InDesign Server CC 2014 set up on configuration_noport that happily finds my Adobe Typekit fonts, If I run the Indesign server as a service using the same configuration none of my Typekit fonts are found.  I am running the service as the same user as my Desktop user, and also have tried rebooting the box with no success.

 

Does anyone have any ideas how I can force the service to be able to find the Typekit fonts?

Has anyone here built a custom LBQ vs the one that's included with InDesign Server? I'm installing CS9 on some new servers and LBQ is being quite difficult in running properly. I have no issues with the default LBQ running on CS6 but with CS9? hmm, not so good. So anyways, didn't know if anyone has written a custom LBQ or is everyone using the default one supplied by Adobe?
