Hi Dan,

you can always position your asset afterwards

tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"

set placedAsset to place asset asset 1 of library 1 on document 1

move placedAsset to beginning of page 2 of document 1

end tell

I’ve got the basic place asset script to work but can’t find the syntax to specify which page. The script uses a slightly different syntax in referring to “on document x” instead of “of document x” etc.

So, using a line from Shirley’s book

Set placedAsset to place asset asset “AssetName” of library “LibraryName” on document 1

Works great and places the asset on the active page. But I need to be able to specify a certain page based on certain criteria.

Tried

Set placedAsset to place asset asset “AssetName” of library “LibraryName” on page 1 of document 1

Set placedAsset to place asset asset “AssetName” of library “LibraryName” on page 1 on document 1

Set placedAsset to place asset asset “AssetName” of library “LibraryName” on page 1

None worked. The error basically says it was expecting back text or a document and got page.

Any suggestions

Dan
