Question

ID CS6 + XSLX + Bug to confirm ?

Hi,

Windows

InDesign CS6

A XSLX file

Manually imported : fine

Scriptly imported : file is placed but sheetName property is ignored

With XSL, it just works as expected.

So  can anyone confirm this bug in the import of xlsx files in windows cs6 (i.e. excelImportPreferences.sheetName ignored) ?

Hi Loic,

As a work around you can use

js-xlsx/demos/extendscript at 64798fd1f9cbdf1483a70c6e232422b71ffdbea4 · SheetJS/js-xlsx · GitHub

If you post some code I'll test it for you.

Sorry for being lazy!

Hi Trevor,

Thanks for the hint. I have actually wrote my own xlsx parser a couple of year ago but it might be less rich than this one.

However, I am truly looking at native xlsx import here. Client can use both XLS and XLSX files so I was more ito just placing those.

It seems confirmed it's a CS6 bug.

Thanks anyway
