I have several hundred records to pull in via a mailmerge.
one record per page and one per document.
I can do the merge fine, however at present it just keeps all of the records open until I save them which means I can only do these in batches else indesign crashes.
Is there a way I can get indesign to automatically save each individually merged record into a seperate folder? Ideally naming the saved document after two of the fields so the naming convention would be <<id>>-<<name>>
I've seen some stuff about scripting being available to indesign and I don't mind doing the reading and putting in the work to make this happen - Can anyone point me in the direction of any scripting for indesign quickstart type guides or offer up any other suggestion of how the above may be achieved.
Many Thanks
This is beyond the capabilities of Data Merge, but it might be scriptable, so I've moved your question into the scripting forum.
There are a couple of ways that this could be done but it involves scripts. See the following adobe forum posts:
