Hello, I need to write an InDesign script that can query and modify the state of the "Profile:" and "Rendering Intent:" attributes in InDesign's "Image Color Settings" dialog box for selected placed pictures:I saw the example "colorSettings.jsx" someone mentioned in another post, but that script merely launches the above dialog box. Any help or example on how to locate these two attributes within an InDesign Javascript would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.Steve in California

Hi all,I have done a jQuery post to get a record set of popular products in varied categories- then I am doing an .each loop to display the products.But what I want is to somehow be able to group them by the category field so the display will look something like:category 1-- Product 1 (category 1 not shown)-- Product 4 (category 1 not shown)-- Product 27 (category 1 not shown)category 2-- Product 8 (category 2 not shown)-- Product 2 (category 2 not shown)-- Product 6 (category 2 not shown)etc.So I am not sure how to get this going in javascript.Is there a way to create an array from what I have already to get a DISTINCT list of unique categories?my simple idea is to do 2 loops:loop 1 through the unique distinct categoriesthen within each - loop a second time to just display items that match THIS CATEGORY.just a thought - any help would be appreciated.

Hi I am designing an Access Database that combines a number of PDF documents and then adds a set of bookmarks to various locations locations within the document and also to some external files/folders. Currently I using VBA to open the PDF object and create a set of bookmarks, which for the most part work fine, however the are some issues with windows opening files in a browser, or not at all  (It is not a file association issue).I have included some of the code below which should explain what I am      Set gApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")    Set gPDDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")   'Set gAVDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc")......    If gPDDoc.Open(sTargetPDFPath) Then Set jso = gPDDoc.GetJSObject Set BMR = jso.BookMarkRoot BMR.createChild "BRIEF DOCUMENTS", "", 0 BMR.createChild "WITNESSES", "", 1     ... etc...The next part iterates though some records to retrieve file paths and creates Ja

I am an eLearning ID for a gov't entity. My courses are required to pass stringent 508 compliance tests. I have been using Captivate, and at times Lectora. I am having several issues from the screen reader not reading in order, to jumping back in to the TOC and getting stuck there, quizzes not being compliant and on and on. Upon researching I have found experienced developers stating that no OTS course development software will give you 100% results for 508 compliant courses. What I am wondering is should I just bite the bullet and dive into programming with HTML5, CSS and JS? I have had the classes but never tried to code outright, I will have a huge learning curve but feel it will be worth it. Also I need justification for the time involved to come up to speed. My manager takes a lot of stock in the software companies claiming to be the '508 answer'. I know marketing for dev software claims to be 508 compliant wizards but from what I have found, they are not, they just have their lit

First, I will list my process:-Open .wav as .raw in Photoshop (with set px dimensions)-Place a composition over the canvas -export as .wav -edit/alter the audio in Audition -open back up in photoshop with the same set px dimension to see resultsexample: Piece:So, what I want to do is perform step 4 with a live feed of the effects happening to the image in a frame. This is how I assume I'll have to go about it:Figure out the mathematics behind .wav and .raw files to be able to open .wav as .rawInstall an audio effect package and create an audio effects chainCreate on/off buttons or sliders for different fxCreate frame with specifc px dimensions to view changes to audio/image.The goal here is to be able to have audience members interact with live pieces in an exhibition, showing the relationship between digital sound and image.Any help about references, where to start, etc. would be much appreciated!

Ok i am setting a script that i need it to calculate a percentage. if the percentage is over 30% it needs to go to red, if it's below it can stay in black.  i'm going off a V3/V4 V3-PaymentV4-Income any ideas on how to get this setup for red? This is what it's using right now with the Field Properties Format being Set to Percentage (function () {        // Get the field values, as numbers      var v3 = +getField("payment").value;      var v4 = +getField("ApplicantsTotalNetIncome").value;      var v = v3 / v4;         if (!isNaN(v) && v4 != 0) {          event.value = v;      } else {          event.value = "";      }    })(); 

Good morningI've tried a number of different approaches but can't seem to get this to work.  I'm building a PDF Form in Adobe Pro DC to be used by our staff.  I have an Appointment Date field (appt_date) and I need to verify that the date the user entered is between today and 4 weeks from now.  I've seen a lot of code samples but the dates are always provided in the code, which doesn't help me.Any help would be appreciated.  This code snippet is the last one I've tried, but it's not working (I think this was a "pure javascript" example rather than "Adobe JavaScript").  Thanks in advance!Chrisvar dateFrom = "01/08/2017";var dateTo = "01/10/2017";var dateCheck = "05/09/2017";var d1 = dateFrom.split("/");var d2 = dateTo.split("/");var c = dateCheck.split("/");var from = new Date(d1);  // -1 because months are from 0 to 11var to   = new Date(d2);var check = new Date(c);alert(check > from && check < to);

Good morning ladies and gentlemen!I recently created an inspection report which contains various 'Year service is due' fields. When I enter a past or present year, I'd like the cell background to turn red. If I enter a future year, I'd like the cell background to stay white. I don't know how to write code but I assume I can create a java script in this case. Can someone please assist?Thank you in advance!

I recently decided I wanted to learn JavaScript, or at least get the gist of what it is and how it works.  The reason I decided this was because of issues I’ve had with creating fillable Acrobat forms as well as other programs that allow JavaScript to be used.  Countless times I’ve Googled how to solve a problem in Acrobat, only to find out it can’t be directly done with the standard software tools, followed by someone in a forum saying  “you have to use JavaScript” in which they provide a series of brackets, indentions, hyphens, etc., which looks like Greek to me.  I often copy and paste their “code” into what I’m working on and lo and behold it calculates exactly what I was wanting it to.  But I hate not knowing what I am doing, so this is when I decided to learn the fundamentals of JavaScript.  After doing brief research, as I understand it, in order to learn JavaScript, it is best to first learn HTML.  When I google “HTML” or “HTML for beginners”

I want to generate PDF file from angular2 website page. What would you suggest supporting that, if the site page has a complex structure and an ideal solution should convert page (html) to PDF without additional manipulations?

I am trying to use RTE inside multifield for AEM 6.3 touch UI. I am facing the below listed problems. 1.Paraformat style(p,h1,h2,h3,etc..) is getting applied for the entire line, instead of selected words on the same line. 2.How to include color picker inside RTE.3.When edit dialog is opened for the first time for authoring, author is not able to enter the text inside RTE present in multifield, whereas it works fine outside the multifield. Then, author gives ok without entering any text in RTE inside multifield. When edit dialog is opened for second time, able to enter the text in RTE present inside multifield.

Adobe SDK provides JavaScript, C/C++ Plugin and InterAppCommunication options. I am not sure what is the best way to go to support a use case: whenever a user open the PDF file by a Adobe Reader, it will ask the user to authenticate to a remote server, if it is successful, the PDF will be opened, if failed, the reader will be closed.
