Inspiring

Many years ago, when I just started writing scripts, I was blessed to find the Adobe Community pages. People like Theunis De Jong, Peter Kahrel, Dave Saunders, Loic Aigon, Uwe, Marc Autret and many others helped me and many other community members become better at what we love to do, sharing their wisdom, guiding us in becoming better scripters, to always excel in what we do, to always search for answers, to help others finding solutions, ... I can honestly say I would not be the person I'm today without all those inspiring people. Theunis helped me and so many others in so many occasions. He was a true inspiration to us all. Rest in peace Theunis ...

I'm sorry to hear this. He helped me once or twice with a complicated GREP query in other forums.

For him it was a piece of cake, and was always willing to help other people out.

My condolances to his family and friends.

The world of InDesign is diminished by his passing. He will be missed by all whose lives and careers he has touched.

Ahh, what a loss for this community. Jongware has left a very big void in this space that will be almost impossible to fill, having the know-how of something and also the passion to share it is a rare thing in our world and he had both these qualities in abundance. It was an honor to share this space with him. You will be fondly remembered always by InDesign scripters. RIP
