Question

InDesign Script to batch export 4 different PDFs from a single file

Hello hello,

I'm looking to create a script that exports 4 PDF files from a single InDesign file. The export settings I need are as follows:

1 - High Res PDF (hi)

2 - High Res PDF, with crops and bleeds (hipr)

3 - High Res PDF, no crops, with bleeds (hipr_nocrops_wbleeds)

4 - Lo res PDF with hyperlinks (lo)

Bonus points if I can have the script automatically add the file type to the suffix, for example, "filename_hi" "filename_hipr" "filename_hipr_nocrops_wbleeds" and "filename_lo". Im not too savy with code, though I can piece things together with enough time. Does anyone know of something similar already existing or possibly something I can modify to work for my needs? Thanks in advance!

Hello @Andrew@Axis,

 

Take a look at the post below...you will need to add/modify the pdf export presets, the suffix's and your required page ranges.
