Hi, I have an excel spreadsheet with a column of dimensions, height and width. What I would like to do is import this list into Indesign and run a script creating frames/ boxes. In addition to merging this list and creating boxes, I would hope to have these boxes align in a linear pattern each meeting up with the other flush.
Thanks in advance,
Your request implies a few fundamental bricks such as :
- loading CSV data (given you can't load EXCEL by default)
- Adding frames to a page (the scripting guide is full of samples)
So start exporting EXCEL to CSV, then look around for loading CSV. Come back then with a snippet of yours we can comment.
