I don’t know. Part of the coding in the script identifies the version of the software. I tried to update those version numbers in the script, but apparently there’s something else a-miss, prompting an error message that says “unable to write the ini file”. I don’t know what that means. I wrote to the author of the script and he told me not to expect it to work in CC, and that he didn’t plan to re-write it. Ugh. I did find another script that resizes the linked image to 100% in a single step, but it over writes the original image with the smaller one. The script I bought did this:
1) Open a folder with any number of InDesign files in it
2) Searched the documents for images that did not meat specs (RGB, <300 ppi, etc.)
3) Opened the acceptable files in PhotoShop
4) Resized the image down in 20% increments (or by any other % I specified)
5) Rotated/flipped the image as necessary based on InDesign settings
6) Identified the area showing in the InDesign frame and added 15 pixels
7) cropped the image at that dimension
8) saved the image as JPG with a new extension, in a new folder
9) Placed the new image in the ID document at the proper position in the frame
10) saved and closed the ID document.
All I had to do was copy my InDesign files to a new folder so the originals didn’t get over written (which is important in my workflow). Pretty amazing little piece of work.
