I've been looking for a script that:
- exports every page of an indesign file to a seperate single-page pdf (or other filetypes)
- names the pdf with the name of a page -> this is the hard part to find
The reason i could use it: i have a 200+ page file with productspecs. I would like to export every page with the correct productname. (extracting pdfs in acrobat is not a problem, but then i have to manually rename every file)
I'm not sure how to name the pages, as it's not a function in indesign. Ideal would be to be able to "tell" indesign: this textframe = the pagename, so it wouldn't be necessary to label the page seperately.
I'm not a scripter. I searched the forum and found some info on this already, but not a working script including automatic pagenaming.
I did found an old post where someone points to such a script, but i can't find it:

Did anyone ever made/found/used such a script?
(btw, a similar script for illustrator artboards would be very useful too!)
Any help appreciated!
