Thanks to the professional services team from Adobe, the issue was fixed. The installer apparently contained Media Encoder and/or Bridge components that were not compatible with the server's specifications. After creating a new build (without the additional components), the installation did work.

I'm having issues installing the latest version of Indesign Server on a Windows Server 2019. The application will not install. This message is shown...  The logs don't mention any clear indication. The only thing we notice is this in the deployment report ... <errorCode>7</errorCode><errorSubCode>195</errorSubCode> After Googling, it seems 195 has something to do with prerequisites, but they all seem to be valid. The server did contain the Indesign Server 2022 version, which could be installed succesfully. How do I find out what the problem is quickly?

Hi, Using Extendscript, how do you execute an external executable with arguments? var myFile = new File("Path to app/app.exe 'arg1' 'arg2'"): myFile.execute(); It doesn't seem to be supported. Thanx tm

Something to keep in mind: If I'm not mistaken Adobe recommends only configuring the number of instances equal to the number of processors available in the machine... 20 instances to be equal to 20(+1) processor cores ...

I'm having a serieous issues with InDesign server 2023. On occassions, It freezes for hours when opening a document. In other cases all workes well. The Windows Event Viewer doesn't register any errors, or other InDesign server events. It happens on all instances. Once it unlocks, it continues to process. It is running on a Windows Server 2022 Standard. Does anyone have any idea? Thank you.

Roddy from Adobe provided me with a link and an answer ... More information: https://helpx.adobe.com/be_en/indesign/using/create-packages-admin-console.html Domain access required by the Indesign Server ... https://lcs-cops.adobe.io https://lcs-robs.adobe.io https://lcs-ulecs.adobe.io https://resources.licenses.adobe.com

Hi, It seems that Indesign server requires an internet connection to validate the licence periodically. If no connection can be made, Indesign server stops working. How often is validation carried out? Is it once a year? What IP addresses and ports are required for the validation process? Thanx

Hi, When using scripting to automate some processes in Illustrator, the application crashes. Unfortunate, but more of an issue is the crash reporting dialog boxes. On Windows, how do you disable/remove all error/crash reporting functionality? It disrupts/halts all automation processes. Thank you.

Hi, Does anyone know how to check a (complex) Adobe Illustrator document for missing fonts using Javascript? The property "app.textFonts" contains all available fonts, but also the missing ones used in the document. Thanx

Hi Mark, It seems that Illustrator does not have an app.fonts, but an app.textFonts. And a TextFont object has no location property. I have found another approach to maybe solve this. By making a BridgeTalk connection, I can probably do it with Indesign as well. However, if I could only do it with Illustrator, that would be a better choice

Hi, I need to collect all font files used in an active document in Adobe Illustrator. By looking at the XML header, I'm able to create a list of fonts used in a document, but I can't locate the full path to the font file. How do I locate the full path of the fonts used in a file? How does the "package" feature is able to collect the fonts? Thank you

Hi, Does anyone know how to set Adobe Illustrator full screen/maximised using vbScript? Set appRef = CreateObject("Illustrator.Application.27") Or can this be done using Javascript? The goal is to enlarge the application window BEFORE a document is opened... Thanx

Hi, I'm having issues decoding a string ... var newText = "This is a [u0027] test";
newText = newText.replace("\[u", '\\u');
newText = newText.replace("]", "");
newText = decodeURI(newText);
alert(newText); The base string contains square brackets and lacks the backspace prefix. This however seem to work ... var newText = "This is a \u0027 test";
newText = decodeURI(newText);
alert(newText); Does aynone have a solution? Thanx

Hi, Using scripting, I need to know which version of Illustrator created an ai or pdf-file. In this community I found the code below (I tweaked it a bit)... var myPath = "/Users/me/Desktop/artwork.pdf";
var myFile = new File(myPath);
var docVersion = getDocumentVersion(myFile);
var appVersion = getApplicationVersion();
function getApplicationVersion(){
var resultArr = app.version.split(".");
return (resultArr[0]);
}
function getDocumentVersion(_myFile){
var vrs = null;
_myFile.open("r");
try{
while(_myFile.tell() < _myFile.length) {
var line = _myFile.readln();
var idxOf = line.indexOf("Creator: Adobe Illustrator(R)");
if(idxOf > 0) {
vrs = line.substring(idxOf+30, line.length);
}
}
}
catch(ex) {}
finally { _myFile.close(); }
if(vrs != null){
var vrsArr = vrs.split(".");
vrs = vrsArr[0];
}
return vrs;
} Unfortunately, the version number does not match the application version. The value returned is 24, but the app version is 27 (CC2023). How can I fix this? Thanx

Hi sberic, I'm using Os X 13.1, Vs Code 1.74.3, ExtendScript Debugger Ext 2.0.3, Adobe Ill. 2022, ... Setting the focus to the target application after the launch seems to be helpfull in speeding up the process. It also seems more of a problem when the device is connected to WiFi, then when using an ethernet cable... Maybe this could be helpfull info ... Thank you for looking in to this ...

Hi, On Os X, when starting a debug session using Vs Code and the ExtendScript Debugger, it can take up to a minute before the script is started. On Windows this is much faster. Is this something which can be fixed? I'm using the latest version of Os X on a MacBook Pro 2019. Thank you.

I need to modify a symbol in a document. Due to limitations in the DOM, I'm trying a workaround by putting it on a new layer, and trying the modify it. Then I would like to add it again as a new symbol. But when breaking the symbol, the layer.pageItems array is empty. So I'm not able to loop the list of items. How do i fix this? var doc = app.activeDocument;
var tempLayer = doc.layers.add();
tempLayer.name = "TEMP";
var badSymbol = doc.symbols.getByName("BAD");
var badSymbolItem = tempLayer.symbolItems.add(badSymbol);
// Making it a regular page/layer object
badSymbolItem.breakLink();
app.redraw();
for ( var j = 0; j < tempLayer.pageItems.length; j++ ) {
// EMPTY ?
};
// Add content of a layer as new Symbol in the document
tempLayer.remove();

Hi, Does anyone know how to manage nested/wrapped objects (items placed in items) in Javascript? How to check if a pageItem has other items inside? (isolation mode) var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
for (var i = 0; i < myDoc.pageItems.length; i++){
var myItem = myDoc.pageItems[i];
// How to check if myItem contains isolated items
// How to remove subitems?
}
for (var i = 0; i < myDoc.symbolItems.length; i++){
var mySymbolItem = myDoc.symbolItems[i];
// How to check if mySymbolItem contains isolated items
// How to remove subitems?
} Thanx

The files are located on a server. Using the same account on another machine, the issue doesn't occure ... It seems the issue is related to the machine ...
