Hello,

I have a script that currently imports images and places them in Rows at a specified height then adjusts image width according to proportion & places the file name truncating after a specified character and being placed below the image,. I need to change this script to run from top to bottom in columns based on a set width with the height being the variable, then go to the next column and so forth then add a new page and keep going until the source of images runs out. The script was written by a friend, not me. I have little to no script experience.

Is there anyone that can help me adjust the script to run the way I need it to? I looked at the ImageCatalog.applescript and it almost does what I need it to.

Forgot to mention Script is from CS2, I am now using CS3

Try using data merge from InDesign itself (window->automation->data merge). one of the options of that function is the ability to layout horizontally or vertically.
