Hi all,

I want to add a picture and rotate it with script.

I know the file path, the page and the coordiantes.

I also know the rotation angle,

Do you have an example how to do this with VBScript?

Thanks

Yael

you can try this:

set myInDi = CreateObject("InDesign.Application")

set myDoc = myInDi.ActiveDocument

set myPage = myDoc.Pages.Item(1)

set myRect = myPage.Rectangles.Add

myRect.GeometricBounds = Array(0,0,100,100)

call myRect.Place("C:\image.tif")

call myRect.Fit(1667591779)

' 1667591779 = idFitOptions.idCenterContent

myRect.RotationAngle = 90

you need to change page number, GeometricBounds (y1,x1,y2,x2), path to image and rotation angle
