Opening CS2 document in CS3 Server not working,

$
0
0
Hi

I'm trying to open an InDesign CS2 document in CS3 Server, but when I do that, the Application.open() doesn't return.

InDesignServer.exe starts working for a while, creates a lock file, but then it starts to idle and the call won't return.

After this, I cant do anything against the server anymore, until i restart it.

Is this a known issue? is there a solution for this?

I'm using the Java/CORBA interface.

Thanks

Naming convention for .idlk files?

$
0
0

InDesign and InCopy avoid stepping on each other's toes by putting .idlk lock files in the same directory as files they're working on.

 

It's evident that the filename pattern is:

 

"~{lowercased filename}~{6-character string}.idlk"

 

Any documentation or ideas about how that 6-character string is generated? It seems to be based only on the filename-a checksum of some sort?

 

Thanks,

InDesign Server Developer Edition, PDF export problem

$

I'm currently testing our application on IDS CS5, using Developer Edition. Whenever I attempt to export a PDF, I receive the following error:

Wed Mar  2 10:17:29 2011 WARN [server] Colour in one or more placed graphics cannot be represented as CMYK.  Non-CMYK colour is not compliant with the PDF/X-1a standard. You can click OK to produce a valid PDF, but it will not be a PDF/X-1a compliant file.
Wed Mar  2 10:17:29 2011 ERROR[server] JavaScript Error!
Error Number: 2
Error String: User cancelled this action.
Engine: main
Line: 1428
Source: this.document.exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, documentFile);
Interpreter: CS4 (6.0)

This happens even with a completely blank document. It works fine if I export JPGs or an INDD file from the same file. I'm guessing this is due to the watermark that Developer Edition places on every page. I'm fine with that, but not actually being able to export an X-1a PDF makes testing quite tricky.

Any suggestions?

Hi,

 

I want to have InDesign Server trial for ever for one my cloud product in which I am tring to demo. After the demo user can either purchase InDesign server themself or plug-in my tool with their existing InDesign server. If I use InDesign Server 90 days trial, after 90 days, will it stop to work or continue to work with water mark? I am fine to have water mark even from the first day. I email to Adobe asking "InDesign Server Developer Free License" but no response. Please advise.

InDesign Server CC2014 Trial issue

$

0

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!

Multiple locations, WAN connected offices and Adobe InDesign.

$

We have two offices that use Adobe InDesign. The central server is located in location A. Location B uses the mapped drives from location A in order to do there work inside of InDesign. The connection between the two offices are VPN tunnels over the WAN. The users in location B are constantly complaining about speeds inside of Abode InDesign and what we are needing to find is if Adobe InDesign Server is like Revit server in the way that it will act as an accelerator/host relationship between the two locations or if we are barking up the wrong tree. And if I am correct in my assumption that InDesign does act in a manor of Host/Accelerator then what your that infrastructure look like?


Undocumented error (errornumber 52)

Hello,

I am making a SOAP call to InDesign Server. The return message states that an error occurred. It only gives me a number (52). There is no further explanation in the message. This error is also not listed in the errors documentation (SDK -> doc/references).

Does anyone have an idea as to what this error code might mean or where I can find more information about it?

Thanks,

hi all,

 

I'm new developer in InDesign Server.

I'm having a look at the SnipRunner & BasicPersistInterface.

In the file SnippetRunner.jsx:

 

// get the SDKCodeSnippetRunner object

var snippetRunner = app.sdkCodeSnippetRunnerObject;

 

In the file BasisPersitInterface.jsx:

app.basicpersistinterfacePreferences.bpiData = "default";

if (app.basicpersistinterfacePreferences.bpiData != "default") {}

 

really, I dont understand where & how to define the "sdkCodeSnippetRunnerObject" & "basicpersistinterfacePreferences" in the source code of plug-ins written in C/C++

so anyone can help me on this?

How to know the license expiry date for indesign server??

InDesign Server CS6 block update image links

$
0

Hello,

 

I try to script my InDesign Server CS6 to do not update image links (from images which edited since last opening of layout document). The default setting is that the image links will automatically be updated when opening the document.

 

I found a parameter in the scripting documentation and tried this in a InDesign jsx script. The parameter is also available for InDesignServer.

 

In the InDesign script it works to set

 

app.linkingPreferences.checkLinksAtOpen = false;

 

When I try to use this parameter in my InDesignServer script the server do not ust this setting an updates all images in the document.

 

Has anyone an idea to solve this?

[IDS CS 2][JS]UTF-8 via soap request

$

Hallo,

when sending a soap request with utf-8 encoded characters, the server transforms them to the local windows charset encoding (ISO-8859-1) when reading via JavaScript. Is there a possibility to tell the server to treat soap requests as UTF-8 encoded strings? Or maybe the error occurs in the Application.scriptArgs variable where they are stored with the wrong charset.

rectangle.place (Placing Image) - InDesign vs InDesignServer

$
0
0

Any help or suggestions or even guesses appreciated here. Thanks!

 

I have a script that correctly places images in tagged rectangles via script in InDesign, the script then exports to PDF. All is well.


When I run the same script with the same image path folder structure in InDesignServer, the exported PDF does not show the 'placed' images. I'm getting no errors in my console.


Early in the script I have;

myInDesign.imagePreview = True


I place the images with;

myRectangle.Place myFile, False

myRectangle.fit 1668247152

myRectangle.fit 1667591779

for each myItem in myRectangle.items

     myItem.itemLink.unlink

next



I've tried it with and without the .unlink code (an attempt to force embedding of the images)


In all other aspects the script works the same on ID as IDS. I'm starting my ID CS6 server with InDesignServer -previews


I suspect I'm missing something with the PDF export preferences, but have no idea why it's working on ID and not on IDS.


Any help greatly appreciated.

How to start two instances of InDesign server independently?

$

Hello,

we have a multi instance InDesign server installation.

And we are able to start two instances of InDesign server on different ports.

 

But now we would like to use different plugins for different instances.

Is it possible somehow? For example install InDesign server two times in different folders or something like that?

 

Thank you in advance.

Access InDesignServer instance running as Windows service via COM?

$
0
0

I 'm trying to obtain the COM application object of an InDesign Server instance that is running (via the InDesignServerService) as a Windows Service but all attempts at this have thusfar failed.

 

This is what I did

  • I have created a new instance via InDesignServerService.msc. The new instance has no port and the following commandline argument "-configuration IDS_1".
  • I have set the InDesignServerService to log on using my local user account.
  • I started the InDesignServerService
  • I'm using InDesignServer CS6 (8.0) x64 on Windows 8 (also tried on Win7) and I'm a local admin.

 

I want to communicate with the InDesign server instance from my application (this is a .NET application, but all COM functionality is through low-level p/invokes calls). Actually this will eventually run also as a service, but for debugging purposes I thought it would be easier to run it as a simple console application.

 

I would have expected that a COM moniker called "IDS_1" would now be available to which I could bind to gain access to the Application object of the server instance. However, this does not seem to be the case.

 

The thing is, when I run InDesignServer as a regular application the moniker is in fact available.

 

Any help on what could be wrong here and a possible solution would be much appreciated.

 

    Dirk
