Hi All. I opened a new 1x48.5" document and want to insert 1x2" PDF files at set inetrvals. These intervals I have in a CSV or Excel table. Is there any way to Place them at said intervals from such a file? Or even a way to enter the values once so they all get Placed at said intervals?

 

Many thanks!

Are the intervals all uniform or varied?

Hi afbendana,

this is a workflow that can be fully automated by using ExtendScript (JavaScript). For that hire a scripter.

( You could contact me with a private message through the forum. )

 

Without a script:

You could prepare object styles where you define the position of an element.

Place the PDF pages, apply the object styles. One object style per set of coordinates.

 

Regards,
