Re: Three InDesign scripting questions

Thanks, that did the trick!

Thanks. I'm not keen on the system wide scripts menu with all submenus etc. It's too much for the users. I'll stick with the palette, thanks.

Now, if I have a large script that does a lot of work, I've found the fastest environment is to run save the script as a droplet and open the document without showing. That's fast.

Yea, but you know what? I'm finding that reading the XMP info directly from a script is faster than pulling it through InDesign, plus you get more info!
