Hi Experts,

Running InDesign Server, trying to export a page as JPG.

Here is my code

var myFolder = Folder("C:/server/sample_document");

var myIndsnFiles = myFolder.getFiles("*.idml");

for(k=0; k<myIndsnFiles.length; k++)

{
doc= app.open(myIndsnFiles);

var doc = app.documents[0];
app.jpegExportPreferences.pageString='1';

//export that page from the document:
var myFile = new File('C:/test.jpg');
doc.exportFile(ExportFormat.JPG, myFile);
}

Could you please help me to understand the issue.

Thank you

Able to resolve with small file path fix. Sorry.

var myFolder = Folder("C:/server/sample_document");

var myIndsnFiles = myFolder.getFiles("*.idml");

for(k=0; k<myIndsnFiles.length; k++)

{
doc= app.open(myIndsnFiles);

var doc = app.documents[0];

app.jpegExportPreferences.pageString='1';

//export that page from the document:
var myFile = File('/C/01/test.jpg');
doc.exportFile(ExportFormat.JPG, myFile);
}
