2. Re: Tutorial for automating document creation?
mrdior Jan 21, 2011 6:37 AM (in response to Kasyan Servetsky)Thank you Kasyan. That's perfect. Hard to believe I was trying to do this in PS4... seems much easier in ID.
I would also like to automate the process outside of ID... by putting the CSV file in a folder and then running a script that will:
1) launch ID
2) open the document blank with data fields already created
3) import the CSV file
4) generate as many PDF files as CSV records
5) close ID
I'm on a Mac OS X platform. I'll google this as well... but if anyone knows of just the link or tutorial I need, please let me know!! Thx!
