Hi,
i’m looking for a way to automate the placement of picto’s and object that are used often in a book.
The picto's/objects are indicated in the manuscript as keywords and should be replaced by the correct picto/object as an anchored object. We dont want to place those items using external links.
The idea is that we put all the different picto’s/objects that are in a book on a certain masterpage or layer and label them.
Would it be possible to create a script that replaces the keywords with the object with the correct label?
Now we do a find&change for each picto/object that is in the book.
I attached a PDF to illustrate what i mean. Hopefully it is clear.
kind regards
Arne
