This works for me
set theHD to (path to startup disk as string)
set tDT to (path to desktop as string) --I used desktop because it is
more convenient for me.
set folderPath to tDT & "Publication:" --assumes folder "Publication"
on desktop
tell application "InDesign 2.0.2"
activate
set theDoc to document 1
set docName to name of theDoc
set PDFExportPreferences to properties of PDF export preferences --not
needed just left in for interest
set pageCount to count every page of theDoc
repeat with i from 1 to pageCount
set filePath to folderPath & docName & " Page " & i & ".pdf"
set pagenumb to i & "-" & i as string
set properties of PDF export preferences to {page range:pagenumb}
--PDF export preferences are property of application not document
export theDoc format "Adobe PDF" to filePath using "Vertis"
--"Vertis" is custom PDF style. This just replaces pdf's if they
already exist
end repeat
end tell

accomplish this by printing to .ps files, either. Is page range not
scriptable in Indesign?

Thanks for any insight.
