How to send xml file to Indesign server and get the generated document from In-Design Server

[ashishktrig]

Hi All,

I am developing an indesign script which will parse the xml file and generate the indesign document for us. Now I need to send those scripts and xml files to indesign server and in return want the generated indesign document.

I have installed Indesign server in my local system where I can easily call runscript method of the Indesign server and accordingly files are generated and I can get it but what I will have to do if indesign server is on some other machine and I will have to send the xml files to it and in response want the generated indesign-document from it

Just for Information I am a .net developer so anything which can be done with the help of it will be very helpful to me

Regards,

Create a webserver, make an api on which you can post a script file, input xml. On execution of this api the files will be fetched by the server and then fed to IDS using doscript api. You will have to interact with IDS using the com interface or corba. IDS has examples for corba i suppose

Our better yet look at the sampleclient utility it does all this using the soap interface if i remember correctly.
