I am looking for a solution. I want to Place 400 pages in PDF format. What are the key commands?

I am using a MacPro OS X 10.6.8.

Use Scott Zanelli's ready-made MultiPageImporter: http://indesignsecrets.com/zanelli-releases-multipageimporter-for-importing-both-pdf-and-indd-files.php

-- the term " continuous flow" is not entirely appropriate for placing PDFs, by the way.

>What are the key commands?

To roll your own script all you need is a handful of Place commands, feeding the import preferences wih each page numer from the imported PDF. A good exercise to try yourself.
