Making plugin for In-Design?

Guest
Mar 14, 2018 Mar 14, 2018

Hello I am new to In-Design However i am have some experience in Coding ,but i am in Delima  i have been assigned task of creating In-Design plugin or script which meets following requirement

  1. If desired, place low resolution layout versions of images, later automated replacement with high resolution images

  2. Previews of all pages of an InDesign document inside some CMS  (like PDF or video preview)

  3. Presentation of all images used in an InDesign document, with link to images (extension  of dependencies panel)

  4. Images, representation of all InDesign documents, where the image is used, with a link to the layout (extension  of dependencies panel).

  So what my findings till now is this can't be done in plugin alone which will be developed in c++ alone but we will also need script in node js which works as     api and send blob images to cms so that we can view it in cms. In other words

Showing Images from In-Design to CMS requires us to Scripts that send BLOB

images to cms Server and Uploads to cms Server through cms API.

There will be two way communication Between In-Design and cms which will

done by custom API’s which will change Data in (JSON or XML Format) written in

Node.js or Dot-Net.

So i want to know is my path correct is this requirement feasible?

Thanks in advance

Moved to InDesign forum where the post will get better exposure.

Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

Actually, Plugin development belongs in InDesign SDK
