Need a script to place images on multiple pages

New Here ,
Oct 17, 2017 Oct 17, 2017
I need a script that places my images in different placeholders on multiple pages.

I have about 80 pages in my template and some pages have more than one image placeholder and some pages have none.

Is there a way to check to see if the page has any image placeholders and if so place the image?

How can I make sure that it places the correct image in the correct placeholder?

Consider hiring someone. It sounds like a real time-saver for you, so it ought to be worth the expense.

That depends on how you manually do this.

Suppose you have square and circle placeholders, and you must insert portraits of men and women. Men go into the squares, women into the circles. How would you expect a script to do that?

Hi Jong,

If we play with "anchored" empty graphic frames [we could suppose they're in the right order?!] and an "images" folder with a "logical numbering" [ e.g., 1.ai, 2.psd, 3.ai, 4.pdf, … 895.pdf // I suppose there're 895 images in the doc and I understand why the op doesn't want to do it manually!    ], a script will do it! … And you're right: not for free!
