Hi - does anyone know of it's possible to embed a pdf preflight profile to all documents contained within a book, simulaneously (if so is there a javascript available)?

You can embed an InDesign profile—the document has an embed() method:

 

//embeds a preflight profile named "Transparency"
app.activeDocument.embed("Transparency")

      Brian, thanks for the guidance. I currently use a script for processing book documents written by Kaysan Servetsky. I'll see if I can work it out.
