Real Quick and Easy Autostart Scripts Question.

Advisor ,
Jun 07, 2016 Jun 07, 2016

Is it better to have 2 or 3 scripts auto start with Indesign Or should i combine them into 1 Script?  And if multiple scripts starting at the same time does not matter is there a limit on how many I should AutoStart?

It will matter, if you want to start the scripts in different target engines.
Then you have to do this in different files.

Or if you want to keep the script functions modular and start them from a main script with doScript() or the include statement pointing at script files somewhere in the file/folder system of your machine.


There are many scenarios. As always: it will depend 😉
