Indesign CS6 - "Appearance of Black"

Scripting Forums AppleScript | Mac OS X
#1

Hello all - I hope someone here will be able to help me, it seems like a simple request but I’m going mad trying to figure it out.

I’m new to the applescript stuff, and I’m under a little bit of pressure to set-up an applescript that set a range of things in the application, InDesign CS6, when run.

I’ve figured most of them out (It’s mainly setting up some standard colour swatches etc), but the one that I’m really struggling with is the “Appearance of Black” which we need to be set to “display all blacks accurately” on screen and “output all blacks accurately” for output.

I have set the Overprint of black to true, but can’t seem to make the Appearance of Black settings change. I’m currently scouring the indesign CS6 applescript library and can’t find any reference to it.

Please can someone just help me with the line of script that tells indesign to do this, for both screen and output.

All help is gratefully received and appreciated!

Thanks all!
