Hi Everyone,

Can any one help me to fetch information from the folder name and replicat into the indesign textframe.

For example,

The folder with name format of  "Fonts_200818_v1". 200818 is date format(year, month and date) and v1 is version

 

In the folder, if the user update the fonts and change the folder date to 200825 and v2 in version.  Now the folder name will "Fonts_200825_v2". If  any time user update the folder the name should always replicate in the indesign to run the script

This is not a part of any eventlisteners which are related to InDesign Scripting.

But I can provide you script that if you execute that script then this information will reflect in that document.

or this can be done like when you open the document the this script can be executed as a part of event listner & it will update those information in InDesign file.

 

Best
