Hi

I've developed a plugin just like sdk sample plugin "framelabel". I've added one label adornment to kDrawablePageItemsBoss. It works fine when I export it to pdf as interactive, jpeg...

But my adornment is not exported if I select pdf(print). But the sample plugin framelabel works fine with print too.

Could any one please suggest wats my mistake?

FYI

InDesign CS5.5 (Release)

Win 7

many thanks

Hi

Is it mandatory to store adornments to database? Becoz I just tested FrameLabel sample, by commenting write portion of it. Then InDesign didn't export adornment to PDF(print).

Refer transparencyeffectui and transparencyeffect sample.

A common mistake is to not have declared the plug-in as a kModelPlugin in your *.fr file. Print PDF export is done asynchronously, so if your plug-in is of type kUIPlugin it won't be copied to the background thread and your adornment won't be drawn.

Thanks Roddy. Yes my plugin is a kUIPlugin. I'll split and try it as model & ui.

it won't be copied to the background thread and your adornment won't be drawn.

I hope u mean it wont draw on PDF. Becoz adornment draws fine in indesign page UI.

That's right, if the plug-in is defined as a kUIPlugin your adornment will be drawn to the page in InDesign, but it won't appear in the PDF.
