Is the contenrt on those pages perhaps marked as non-printing?

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 31, 2024

Is this only with one file, or for all files? Did you check to be sure you haven't set page ranges to export that exclude those missing pages?

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 30, 2024

I really should have read the whole thread before posting. (feeling sheepinsh).

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 30, 2024

How about putting those notes in a frame as an inline anchored object? That frame can have an object style that aligns away from spine.

And you may have to install ion Windows 7 emulation mode. I had no problems running the installer for CS6 on win10. At what poing did you get this error? To the best of my understanding activation server for version 6 (CS4) no longer exists which could explain a 404 error.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 30, 2024

Going to need a lot more information. Font, version if InDesign, what else is on the page, etc. Some screen shots before and after would be good, too.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 29, 2024

I suspect you are using the sample script include with InDesign. I much prefer using the script you can find at https://github.com/mike-edel/ID-MultiPageImporter/releases which is far more flexible and will allow you to make your file at the finshed dimension and position your placed pages as you like on the page.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 27, 2024

Thanks, Derek. My typinmg is worse than usual today.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 27, 2024

Did you add any kind of transparency to the document? That can cause text to display more boldly. You might also want to try exporting the file to .isml, than open that and save as with a new name to avoid overwtiing the existing file. RThat will clear minor corruption.

You might also want to take a look at Santa Cruz Software: https://santacruzsoftware.com/. I used to do tech support for their PrintUI segment.

Personally, I think varried indents is going to be visually odd and inappropriate, but you can accomplish this with no left indent and no negative indent specified and add an "Indent to Here" special character after your hyphen.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 24, 2024

Hmm. @Bill Silbert & @jmlevy the behavior seems to have changed, though I don't know exactly when as I have a version gap between v8 and v16. In CS6 (v8) holding Shift with Caps Lock on give lower case, in v16 and beyond it does not. Other programs in other programs caps lock seems to toggle the state with the Shift key.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 24, 2024

When you are typing in English do you have English assigned to the text at the character level (as part of the paragraph style, preferably)?

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 24, 2024

Version of InDesign and OS? All documents? Only one? Only new? Only old? Have you checked to be sure All Caps isn't activated?

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 23, 2024

Where can I adjust it so that it remains automatically activated? Can anybody help? Thx. By @Inserate24003857ckij I beleive like most preference items you should be able to set this with no files open, close and reopen InDesign and it should be set for new files. It may or may not be set for old files when you reopen them.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 21, 2024

At this point my guess is there was some hidden object on the page there with text wrap applied.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 20, 2024

For the record, I also learned the backup lesson the hard way, but about 30 years ago. Haven't lost more than a few hours time since.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 20, 2024

I don't work with right-to-left text at all so not much more I can suggest, especially since the problem seems to go away with some fonts. Next thing on my list would be to verify (by selecting the text) that the assigned language is indeed Arabic.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 20, 2024

OS? Version (and localization) of InDesign? Which paragraph composer are you using? Have you tried a different font altogether to see if the problem is actually in the font itself?

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 20, 2024

And not to kick a man when he's down, but you've been on this forum for some years now so I'm sure you must have seen more than one of us lecture on the importance of keeping backup copies of work in progress. Nobody seems to believe it until something like this happens.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 20, 2024

To convert to .idml (which I presume is what you mean) the file must open. There is, however a "blind open and convert" script that bybasses the user interface and sometimnes works that you can copy from Kasyan's site at http://kasyan.ho.ua/indesign/all/blind_open_and_idml-export.html if that fails you will either have to bite the bullet and pay (and Markzware is the best bet), submit to Adobe and wait, possibly forever, to see if they can recover it, or rebuild from scratch. You'll have to weigh the relative costs to decide.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 19, 2024

The way to handle this in the data merge is to first make a folder with a separate graphic file for each letter you will need, then list the correct file name in the data set for each record. You will have a graphic frame to hold the image file in your template.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 19, 2024

Sorry, I'm not a scripter so can't help with that. See you posted in the other thread, so perhaps the author will get back to you there.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 19, 2024

Another good idea, though it might make the list in the scriopts forlder a bit long if there are a lot of presets.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 19, 2024

Old topic, but it anyone is still working on this, I would suggest the a good way to handle @LMatiel 's request would be to implement a dropdown box to select a preset rather than trying to choose each setting, but perhaps that was what they meant.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 19, 2024

Yeah, if it's that elaborate anchored objects (inline graphics) is the way to go. You can add an image field to the Data Merge and either drop the first character from the text field in your data or use a GREP find change to do it after.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 19, 2024

Rather than three layers, which almost certainly will not work for the drop cap (maybe with a script), I would play with a character style that adds a drop shadow for the outer color, a stroke for the mid, and a character color for the foreground. Whether this can work in your data merge I can't say without seeing the data and how it is set up.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 19, 2024

It may just be this file that I was working on half way through the upgrade. By @ChristianGSp Updating in mid-project is seldom a good idea. but what's done is done. Try an export to .idml if the problem is just this file.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 19, 2024

Check for an applied "space before" value applied to the Emotional paragraph.

Peter Spier · ‎Oct 18, 2024

I'm wondering why you need to convert to outlinies to print?
