Automating page sizes with excel in indesign??

New Here ,
Dec 05, 2018 Dec 05, 2018

Hi

Is their away to create page sizes using excel in indesign.

Currently we have a large number of custom size print work where our Project managers will input data which the designers need in excel.

I was wondering if there was a way to use the excel spreadsheet to automate the page sizes depending on the reference number on the excel?

ie of the data inputed by the project managers

Not natively with InDesign. You or someone else might be able to script it. You might ask in the InDesign Scripting forum:

Hi,

This could be scripted depending on your requirements and such it may be that it would need to be custom built (with possible cost).

If interested then do feel free to send me a message and we can discuss how to take this further.

Regards

Malcolm
