Question

avoid references to images and overall xrefs

How to avoid references to images and overall xrefs during opening dita files with ExtendScript

Is there any parameter for that?

I'm having problem when I open dita files with extendscript in visible mode. but when I copy the file to different path where it doesn't see images and references then it is okey, so I am thinking to avoid references when I open the file.

any thoughts ?

I think this:

  i = GetPropIndex( oaOpenProps, Constants.FS_DontNotifyAPIClients );

  oaOpenProps.propVal.ival = true;

fixed my issue

thanks

I created a function that allows me to open documents in all my scripts easily.

If you want your document to be opened invisibly, just use

var oMyDoc = OpenDoc( sFilename, "invisible" );

when oMyDoc is not null, it is the handle to the opened file.

function OpenDoc( sFilename, sOptions )

{

  var oaOpenProps = GetOpenDefaultParams( );

    if( sOptions != null && sOptions.match( "invisible" ) )

    {

        i = GetPropIndex( oaOpenProps, Constants.FS_MakeVisible );

        oaOpenProps.propVal.ival = Constants.FV_DoCancel;

    }

  i = GetPropIndex( oaOpenProps, Constants.FS_DontNotifyAPIClients );

  oaOpenProps.propVal.ival = true;

  i = GetPropIndex( oaOpenProps, Constants.FS_FileIsOldVersion );

  oaOpenProps.propVal.ival = Constants.FV_DoOK;

  i = GetPropIndex( oaOpenProps, Constants.FS_FontNotFoundInCatalog );

  oaOpenProps.propVal.ival = Constants.FV_DoOK;

  i = GetPropIndex( oaOpenProps, Constants.FS_FontNotFoundInDoc );

  oaOpenProps.propVal.ival = Constants.FV_DoOK;

  i = GetPropIndex( oaOpenProps, Constants.FS_RefFileNotFound );

  oaOpenProps.propVal.ival = Constants.FV_AllowAllRefFilesUnFindable;

  i = GetPropIndex( oaOpenProps, Constants.FS_UpdateTextReferences );

  oaOpenProps.propVal.ival = Constants.FV_DoNo;

  i = GetPropIndex( oaOpenProps, Constants.FS_UpdateXRefs );

  oaOpenProps.propVal.ival = Constants.FV_DoNo;

  oaRetParms = new PropVals( );

  oDocOpen = Open( sFilename, oaOpenProps, oaRetParms );

  if( oDocOpen.ObjectValid( ) )

  {

  return oDocOpen;

  }

  else

  {

  return null;

  }

}
