// working
var myItem = myDocument.textFrames[0];
myItem.exportFile(ExportFormat.jpg, myFile);

// working
myDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.jpg, myFile);

// not working
var myItem = myDocument.textFrames[0];
myItem.exportFile(ExportFormat.inCopy, myFile);

// ---
Anyone have an idea why the textframe does not recognise "ExportFormat.inCopy" ?
I think "myDocument.textFrames[0];" is the correct statement to obtain a "textFrame"
page 1068 on the CS scripting guide shows "ExportFormat.inCopy" as being available.

Hi Jelle,

I have no idea about InDesign scripting but you can try this:

myItem.parentStory.exportFile(ExportFormat.incopy, myFile);

there is a forum specifically for scripting:

i'm now getting the following error:
>The specified object does not support the desired export format.

when using:
>var myItem = myDocument.textFrames[0];
>myItem.exportFile(ExportFormat.incopy, myFile);

It should be:

ExportFormat.incopy
