How to pass a variable from Applescript to Indesign script?
I'm using the excellent MultiPageImporter2.5-CS5.jsx script from Zanelli to import a PDF file in an Indesign document. The (Java)script starts with a popup and asks for the starting page to place the imported PDF.
How can I pass a variable to this script from Applescript with the page number where to place the PDF file and continue without having to manually fill this out in the MultiPageImporter2.5-CS5.jsx popup ?
Here's the applescript that gets the page numbers into variable thismanypages, how to pass this on to MultiPageImporter2.5-CS5.jsx in Indesign in the next step?
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
tell document 1
set thismanypages to count pages
end tell
end tell
set aScriptPath to "Users:admin:Library:Preferences:Adobe InDesign:Version 7.5:en_US:Scripts:Scripts Panel:MultiPageImporter2.5-CS5.jsx"
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
do script alias aScriptPath language javascript
end tell
