Hi,

I didn't use JavaScript to Export the PDF, but Java SDK.

Try with this code:

var result = "No documents are open.";

if(app.documents.length > 0){

var myFile = new File("/c/ServerTestFiles/myTestDocument.pdf");

var result = "exported to: " + myFile.fullName;

if(!myFile.parent.exists && !myFile.parent.create()) {

result = "Not exported. Unable to create the folder: " + myFile.parent.fullName;

} else {

app.documents.item(0).exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, myFile, app.pdfExportPresets.item("[Press Quality]"));

}

result;

That's an example, that I found in the doumentation.

Cheers

Michèle

Hi Michèle,

Thanks for your reply.

Before you execute this code you need to open IDML file on server which actually gives issues. I tested your code on server and it says: "No documents are open".

Thanx in advance for your kind consideration!

Hi Vinayak,

hier is an example how to open a document:

var myFile = new File("/c/ServerTestFiles/myTestDocument.indd");

// OPEN

var myDocument = app.open(myFile);

After that you can export it as PDF. Don't forget to close the document. when you're done

if(app.documents.length != 0){

app.documents.item(0).close();

} else {

var result = "No documents are open.";

result;

}

I hope it helps you

Cheers,

Michèle
