How to create/add a bullet?

$

Hi,

we want to change a paragraph styles list attributes. This works fine except the ParagraphStyle.BulletChar which needs an Indesign.Bullet object. We did not find the container. So our question: where can we find the bullets you can choose in the bullets and numbering options of a paragraph style?

JPEG single page export from multipage document

$
0
0
Hello Experts: I have a function to create a JPEG file given a page number from a multipage document. The problem is that InDesign Server will actually create JPEG files for all the pages -despite the given page range (I just want to create one). It appends the page number starting on page 2 (and will create the JPEG's desired file name for the first page in the document, and so on)

Here is my sample code:

Somewhere I will initialize the document to use it globally:
app.open(File(inDocumentPath));
currentDocument = app.documents[0];

Here is my current function:

function ExportAsQualityJPG(inSaveAsDocumentPath, inPageNumber)
{
app.jpegExportPreferences.jpegQuality = JPEGOptionsQuality.maximum;
app.jpegExportPreferences.resolution = 300;

pageName = currentDocument.pages.item(inPageNumber-1).name;
app.pdfExportPreferences.pageRange = pageName;
// app.jpegExportPreferences.pageString = pageName; --> Does not work

currentDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.jpg, File(inSaveDocumentPath), app.pdfExportPresets.item("[High Quality Print]"));
}

I will do something like later:

ExportAsQualityJPG("//Documents/InDesign/Page2.jpg", 2);

As I mentioned above, it will actually create images for all pages in the document. For example, if the INDD doc has 3 pages, it will create these images:
Page2.jpg (actual page 1)
Page22.jpg (actual page 2)
Page23.jpg (actual page 3)

Any help or tip would be really appreciated.

Thanks,

IDML to PDF using Java API

$

Hi,

 

   I have created an IDML with template through the Indesign GUI and have created the respective XML files(story,designmap,etc) and able to make the changes in it and display that in the UI. This is fine, my requirement is to use the Java API to pass the .idml file (which holds the template) and creates a .PDF out of this. I am unable to get any source code samples for this, this should be done through Java API and no scripting is allowed. I went through the IDML spec, but doesn't have any source code samples for the requirement. Hence, please do provide the source code samples to achieve this using Java API. Expecting positive response...

 

Thanks

Development License for InDesign Server - How to?

$

Hi there,

 

We have ID5.5 with both the production license and a developer license. I need to put the dev license on a test box for our devs to work on it. What is involved in doing so? We don't have it deployed yet and wasn't sure if there was an option to add a development license key vs a production license key.

 

Thanks for any direction...

How to add javascripts to my InDesign Server Java web app?

$
0
0

I wrote a simple Java (1.5)-based web app (deployed on a Tomcat-6-server), which communicates with an InDesign server using CORBA.

After I managed to add job options (stored in separate files within the filesystem), I'd like to do the same for Javascript files, which already work fine in the InDesign client. Unluckily I was unable to identify how to "hook" the scripts into my CORBA application, just like I did with job options.

Unfortunately, the official docs do not tell me how to do this. Can anyone offer help?

Using CS5.5 javacode in CS6

$
0
0

Dear all,

 

I know the java/corba api is no longer supported in CS6. Does this mean that CS5.5 code is not guaranteed to work on CS6?

I ask this because i have following issue:

 

aUtils = new ApplicationUtils(fullIorFilePath);                              app = aUtils.getApplication();
//                              log.debug(app.getVersion()); <= Throws an exception
//                              app.updateFonts(); <= Throws an exception                              int docNum = app.countDocuments(); <= NO exception.

 

The exception i get (in both cases):

 

com.adobe.ids.IdsException: IDL:com/adobe/ids/IdsException:1.0          at com.adobe.ids.IdsExceptionHelper.read(Unknown Source)          at com.adobe.ids.basics._ApplicationStub.getVersion(Unknown Source)          at be.nss.ids.advit.ApplicationInstance.<init>(ApplicationInstance.java:40)          at be.nss.ids.advit.AdvitSession.<init>(AdvitSession.java:335)          at be.nss.ids.main.MainWrapperAnalyze.main(MainWrapperAnalyze.java:75)

 

How far can i trust to use the CS5.5 code in CS6?

The InDesignServerAPI.jar and snippets.jar, delivered with the "Adobe_InDesign_CS6_Server_SDK_370_Mac" are in my class path.

I'm testing on MacOSX 10.7.5 and i'm running my code from eclipse (as i always did).

 

Thanks in advance for usefull advise.

Cannot start Trial for InDesignServer

$

Hi!

 

This problem drives me nuts.

 

I have installed a fresh new version of Microsoft Server 2012.

I download the latest version of InDesign-Server for Windows.

I install Adobe Application Manager Enterprise Edition 3.1.

 

I use booth adobe_prtk.exe from the AAMEE and from the Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition with

 

adobe_prtk.exe --tool=StartTrial --leid=InDesignServer-CS6-Win-GM

 

I get this result

 

StartTrial Successful

Return Code = 0

 

But if i try to start InDesignServer, the console prompts

 

Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit. (On my machine the german translation of this error).

 

 

What I'm doing wrong?

 

The strange thing is... If I call

 

adobe_prtk.exe --tool=StartTrial --leid=FooBarFooBarFoo

 

the tool says also

 

StartTrial Successful

Return Code = 0

I am a newbie to InDesign Server and would like to know what is the default color management policy in InDesign Server. I need to replicate our color management policy installed on our desktop machines which is:

RGB: Preserve embedded profiles

CMYK: Preserve numbers (ignore linked profiles)

updating internal links crashes IDS

$
0
0

Hi,

 

The relevant flow is that a indd document is passed to the Indesign Server where I have to try and update outdated links before exporting to PDF.

 

This in Windows (7, server, doesn't matter)

 

For each link in the document, I am trying to do this (javascript)

 

if (link.status == LinkStatus.linkOutOfDate) {

    try{

      link.update();

     

    }

    catch(error){

      app.consoleout("Error trying to update links ...");

      app.consoleout(error);

    }

}

 

 

The indesign client is able to update the links fine.

Problem is if the links are internal, meaning link.linkType is "type Internal Linked Story" or "type Internal Linked Object", the script above crashes the indesign server instance with the following.

 

 

Faulting application name: InDesignServer.exe, version: 9.0.0.245, time stamp: 0x51acf1d4

Faulting module name: GENERIC PAGE ITEM.RPLN, version: 9.0.0.245, time stamp: 0x51acf472

Exception code: 0xc0000005

Fault offset: 0x000000000010b65a

Faulting process id: 0x1b48

Report Id: ccc9d9af-4427-11e4-8324-b1ee80b6158b

 

Am I doing something wrong with the link.update? It works fine for external links.

 

thanks

I keep on having the "return code 6" when I try to activate a trial version InDesign CC Server 2014 (pc) with APTEE:

InDesign Server CC2014 Trial issue

$

Hi,

 

I cannot start our InDesign Server CC 2014 (Windows Server 2008). I have installed the software and was logged with our Adobe ID and installation was successful without any error message. The installation manual states that “InDesign CC Server needs to be activated before it can be used. If the computer is online, activation is done automatically when you install.” However, I got an error message when I tried to launch InDesign Server: “Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit”.

 

Since  I had previously installed InDesign Server CS6 on another machine, I tried to use the APTEE to start the trial. I used the CS6 one because I did not find any version for CC 2014, I finally got the message:

StartTrial Successful

Return Code = 0

but when I tried to launch again InDesign Server, I always get the Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit message.

I also read this thread but did not find the solution Indesign Server CC Trial issues

 

Thanks for help!


Installing Indesign CC Server on Mac fails

$

Hi,

 

I've multiple Adobe IDs:

Adobe-ID1 for Company 1/AEDP

Adobe-ID2 for Company 2/CC Membership

 

I've downloaded Indesign CC Server from AEDP (Adobe-ID1) and tried to install using the Serial number from AEDP and the Adobe-ID1.

 

In the options dialog of the install, I can't select the ID Server components and it has a warning icon with the title "Required components are disabled".

 

I tried to use the second login (Adobe-ID2) or install it as a trial version, but I get the same behaviour.

 

The installation failed on two Macs (10.9.5 and 10.10.2) with CC and the name of the installer file is: InDesignServer_9_LS18.dmg. Is anything missing and has to be installed upfront?

 

Any recommendations or tips to solve the issue?

您好,是否有一个帮助文件详细介绍了indesign的交互功能(动画,连接,等等)??

LBQ returns blank page (and HTTP Error 400).

$
0
0

So a little background -

 

We run InDesign CS6 on 2 different servers. Both servers are Windows 2008 R2. CS6 server has been running smoothly for a few years now. We're running both in a multi-instance environment and using the Adobe LBQ client to manage the queue and jobs.

 

Recently I built a new machine to test CC14 server. I noticed that the basic informationg regarding the LBQ was the same so I built out a couple of instances like before and tried to run the LBQ client (clover.cmd).

 

It starts to load and seems to load completely but when you try to go to the queue site (localhost:8080) it returns a blank page and an HTTP 400 error. Nothing else happens. The instances of Indesign are running fine but the LBQ is not.

 

My servers I've tried this on are the following:

 

Windows 2012 R2

Windows 2008 R2

 

I have even gone back to a clean VM of Windows 2008 R2 and even migrated back to InDesign CS6 and still the same issue!

 

The only thing I can think of is that the JRE is different. Originally our servers were setup with JRE 1.7 but they've auto-upgraded and are running 1.8. My new servers have 1.8 from the beginning.

 

I'm really at a loss here as to what might be happening. Spent last 3 days trying to puzzle things through to isolate any differences in configs, settings, versions, etc.

 

Any thoughts?in

InDesign Server Running Samples trouble

$
0
0

Hi all,

 

I am having troubles to run the sdk samples properly. I downloaded the trial version and "licenced" with a prerelase serial that I have been given as a member of the prerelase program. My intention is not to build any commercial system, I just wish I can have InDesign Server at hand so I can master my skills onto it.

 

So now I am trying to run the sample code as indicated in the sdk :

 

//Running the server with terminal

InDesignServer -port 12345

 

//Exceuting sampleclient

/Applications/Adobe\ InDesign\ CS6\ Server/InDesignServer.command sampleclient -host localhost:12345 /Applications/Adobe\ InDesign\ CS6\ Server/myScript.jsx

 

I am getting an licence error message (rawly translated from French to English): "Your version only allows one single use. Please contact your reseller for an update"

I am guessing the prerelease licence has limited the use of the server.

 

So my question is : how could one get his hands on a unlocked NFR licence for testing purposes ? I mean it could stamp a big red mark, only output jpgs, I really don't care. What I care is getting the idea and mechanisms of driving IDS with PHP/SOAP. As a consultant, I may have to promote and sell InDesign Server to my clients but it would help if could set demos and have a whole understanding of technologies and costs implied.  Is that somehow possible ? I hope so because I work with Enfocus and Callas and they all provide NFR keys to resellers and promoters. It's just making sense to me.

 

Hope I am not misunderstood in my intentions,

 

TIA for your inputs,

 

Loïc

InDesignServer instance of LBQ cost up to 1.2GB memory

$

Hi,

 

I have use InDesignServer to convert indd files to pdf with the help of LBQ feature of IDS.

But at first, the memory of each instance cost 90-150Mb, after a lots of test of converting yesterday, I find it costs up to 1.2 GB for each instance while starting up, CPU usage of each instaces can up to 25%!!!!

What's the problem? I restarted the computer and reinstall the IDS, but it still costs about 1.2 GB for each IDS instance.

 

Can anyone tell me what happened?

 

 

Darren.
