    How to open InDesign file from the web location

    Praveen10 Community Member

      Hi All,

       

      Is it possible to open the InDesign file kept in any website in the locally opened InDesign application? Pl. confirm.

       

      Thanks,

          For completing the intended task, you have to create a file in system and execute that.

           

          Hope, this code will help you, given by Herbs in earlier disscussion.

           

          linkJumper = File(Folder.temp.fullName+"/In-Tools.html");
          linkJumper.open("w");
          var linkBody = '<html><head><META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL=http://in-tools.com"></head><body> <p></body></html>'
          linkJumper.write(linkBody);
          linkJumper.close();
          linkJumper.execute();
          


          Give your file path in URL.

            Hi Mac,

             

            It's just writing the contents from the variable 'linkBody', but I want to open the files like InDesign, TXT, etc. directly from the URL address.

             

            Pl. confirm.

             

            Thanks,
