Writing a Script in Extendscript

Hi, jenniferb13892332

Try running the sample code below with the document open.
Note that PDF scaling is determined dynamically by FrameMaker.

(function (){
	var pdfFile = File.openDialog ("Select pdf file", "*.pdf", false);
	if (!pdfFile) return;

	var doc = app.ActiveDoc;
	if (!doc.ObjectValid()) return;

	var numOfPages = prompt ("Enter number of pages in pdf", 1);
	numOfPages = parseInt (numOfPages, 10);
	if (isNaN (numOfPages)||numOfPages==0) return;

	var textItems, textItem, textloc, imgFrame, insetObj;

	for (var i=0;i<numOfPages;i++){
		// Create an anchor frame at the end of the last line
		textItems = doc.MainFlowInDoc.GetText(Constants.FTI_PgfEnd);
		textItem = textItems[textItems.length - 1];
		textloc = new TextLoc (textItem.obj, textItem.offset);
		imgFrame = doc.NewAnchoredAFrame (textloc);
		imgFrame.AnchorType = Constants.FV_ANCHOR_BELOW;
		imgFrame.Alignment = Constants.FV_ALIGN_CENTER;
		imgFrame.AFrameIsFloating = false;

		// Create an inset object inside the anchor frame and place the PDF
		insetObj = doc.NewGraphicObject (Constants.FO_Inset, imgFrame); 
		insetObj.InsetFile = pdfFile.fsName;
		insetObj.PageNum = i; // PDF page number, beginning with 0
		insetObj.Pen = 15;

		// Match the size of the anchor frame to the size of the PDF
		imgFrame.Width = insetObj.Width;
		imgFrame.Height = insetObj.Height;
	}
})();

Hi, I have a series of samples for the beginner here:

There is no example that does specifically what you are asking for, but maybe there is something there that can help you understand scripting in general. Hope this helps.
