The example is this: Background colour is #d6002a. I did a test on another document using the Absolute Colourmetric setting and white because cream.   In your original post your were testing an RGB color right? The Conversion Options would only come into play when a color gets converted to a different space on Export—the Output>Color Conversion is set to Convert to Destination. The Intent only affects how RGB colors outside of the CMYK destination or brought into the CMYK gamut. Unless you have a specific reason I would avoid Absolute Colorimetric—in most cases Relative Colorimetric does the best job when you are converting to CMYK.     ... View more

Hi @Damon253788521rhd, When you export the Print PDF try setting the Profile Inclusion Policy to Include All Profiles rather than Don’t Include Profiles—with an Interactive PDF the export is a conversion to sRGB and all objects get the sRGB profile assigned.     Here my interactive and print PDFs opened into Photoshop have sRGB assigned and the RGB vales match     ...

Because the “paste inside” function is also commonly used.   You can paste image frames into other image frames multiple levels deep—I would never do it because it ads unnecessary complexity to the page.   This selected image is buried 4 frames deep. If the top parent frame is the selection it gets harder to drill down via scripting and check for an image.   ... View more

This code always fails because the cells are merged before the headers are set   //get the rows of table 1 of story 1 var r = app.activeDocument.stories[0].tables[0].rows.everyItem().getElements()// try { r[0].cells[0].merge(r[1].cells[0]) r[0].rowType = RowTypes.HEADER_ROW r[1].rowType = RowTypes.HEADER_ROW alert("Rows 1 & 2 have been converted to headers" ) }catch(e) { alert(e) }   This works on a table with no header rows set or cells merged   //get the rows of table 1 of story 1 var r = app.activeDocument.stories[0].tables[0].rows.everyItem().getElements()// try { //set the heads before merging r[0].rowType = RowTypes.HEADER_ROW r[1].rowType = RowTypes.HEADER_ROW r[0].cells[0].merge(r[1].cells[0]) alert("Rows 1 & 2 have been converted to headers" ) }catch(e) { alert(e) }     ...

Check the validity of the selection—your script fails when the selected image and its frame is nested inside of another frame.   var selectedFrame = app.selection[0]; alert(selectedFrame.images[0].isValid)   I get this from your sample file when the selection contains nested frames—image[0] is not valid               ...

Looks like the error is happening because you have split the rows.

Hi @Ray5CCB , Print Booklet is intended for inhouse proofing not commercial printing.

Hi @DavideB838 , I assume this is for print? One approach might be to add spreads rather than single pages.
