Hi All,

In our forum any one know, how can we place images in pages.

I have a folder containing images e.g. 10. A document should be created of 10 pages and each images should be placed in each pages.

Can we do this, I am using Mac OS 10.4.3 and InDesign CS.

Thanks
Rajeev

tell application "InDesign CS"
	tell document 1
		repeat with i from 1 to count of artList
			set theArt to (item i of artList) as text
			place theArt on page i
		end repeat
	end tell
end tell

The artList is the list of images to place. It will place the art in the upper left corner of each page. You should probably build in checks to ensure each page exists and if not to make one.

Hi Joseph,

If you don’t mind I want to ask some question.

Where you have defined artList. Should I choose it using choose command.

Can I add a text boxt below the every images caontaining text “Rajeev:” return “Kumar:”.

Sorry to disturb you.

Thanks a lot…
Rajeev

This should give you a message asking you to define the folder artList

set artList to (choose folder with prompt “choose folder”) as string
