    Automatic fill/replace text field

      Hello all,

       

      In my document, I have a text block with the following:

       

      Document: 770-00009                                                      - Static line

      April 1, 2014 6:42 AM                                                       -  InDesign system variable line

      For single or dual switch installs                                      - Static line

      For build # ${build_version}                                             - This line changes and need a way to automatically fill-in/replace the text, "${build_version}"

       

      So, I am looking for a way to automatically replace ${build_version} with the current version number.

       

      Is there a way to do this from InDesign, via CLI (don't think InDesign has one), via the .indd file, or perhaps at the PDF stage (although, at that point, it would have to be Linux based).

       

      Thank you
