Creating a desktop droplet for an InDesign script

Hi @michaelr26894937 , Also, to create an AppleScript droplet for ID, wrap the code in on open ... end open statements, use the Finder to get a list of dropped files, and a repeat loop to call the code you want to run in ID. Here’s a template that opens the dropped ID file, and displays its name

on open
	tell application "Finder"
		activate
		set the sel to the selection
		repeat with x in sel
			set thePath to (x as Unicode text)
			tell application id "com.adobe.indesign"
				--InDesign code here
				activate
				open thePath
				display dialog "Name: " & name of active document
			end tell
		end repeat
	end tell
end open

You have to compile and save the code as an app and then give the app permission to run, either through the dialog that will pop up on the first run or via the OS Security and Privacy Accessibility preferences:
