Question

Is there a script to print document pages according to their master?

I have a large document with multiple master pages in use. I often need to print only document pages that are "A" Master, "B" master, etc. Is there any way to do this, rather than entering the page numbers manually?

Hi,

Try this.

var doc = app.activeDocument, pages = doc.pages, PageNumbers = "";




for(var i =0;i<pages.length;i++)


{


        if(pages.appliedMaster.namePrefix == 'A')


        {


                PageNumbers += pages.name + ",";


            }


    }




app.pdfExportPreferences.pageRange = PageNumbers;


doc.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, new File(doc.fullName.toString().replace(/\.indd$/i,".pdf")), false);

Regards,

Chinna

Thank you so much...um, how do I get it to work? I'm pretty new at using scripts. :-)
