Adobe InDesign
Automation plugin to automate certain InDesign functionality. The plugin
supports the use of the desktop-version of Adobe InDesign as well as the
server-version. NOTE-2: when running this plugin on an unattended server it is recommend to enable the "Keep InDesign Running in Background" option. This will keep InDesign active in the background which will greatly improve performance because there is not need to start/stop InDesign each time the plugin is executed. NOTE-3: it is strongly recommended to put all the InDesignAutomation commands in one daemon. Running multiple parallel InDesignAutomation commands might produce unpredictable results! |
