Save document on first page

Dan-BTP Oct 24, 2013 6:59 AM

Is there a simple way to set a document when it is saved in a script so that when it is opened in InDesign, it opens to the first page?

My script generates a number of pages and then saves the document. It always opens to the last page, which I understand because it was the last page defined. Can I make it open on the first page?

Thanks!

Hi,

with (app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0]) {
          screenMode = ScreenModeOptions.PREVIEW_TO_PAGE;
          activePage = app.activeDocument.pages[0];
          zoom(ZoomOptions.FIT_PAGE);
          }

... and now save it.
