How to execute JSX script from terminal window/Shellscript?

Hi All,

I have a JSX script that is for generating pdf files from InDesign documents. I want to execute this script through terminal command or Shell scripting.

Could anyone help me on this.

Thanks.

Hello @ad_ind38716857,

This works on Mac OS, you will just need to change the file path and name of the .jsx file.

osascript -e 'tell application id "com.adobe.indesign" to do script (posix file "/Users/User-Name/Desktop/Your-Script.jsx") language javascript'
