Automated Versioning Help.

Hi all,

 

I am looking for a solution to create batch versions of one ad. 

 

We are a News publication so we have upwards of 100 sizes to version out. Previously my co-worker had an apple script which took the versioning 90% of the way but he left the company.  

 

Does anyone know of a plugin or script that can take one creative (ad) and apply all links / fonts etc to mutilple size shells?   

 

Thanks!

Nick

Several helps are built into InDesign:

Alternate Layouts (in the Pages panel)

File > Adjust Layout (sets up how it resizes to different page sizes)

Edit > Place and Link (for editing text content once)
