How to Split Alternate Layouts to Individual Files in InDesign

2

In this InDesign video, Erica Gamet shows off a couple of free scripts that come bundled with the in5 plug-in from Ajar Productions. The first one she shows takes a document with alternate layouts and splits those layouts each into their own separate file. Erica then shows a quick way to create an HTML file that contains all the swatches used, defined in hex colors.

This video is an excerpt from Erica’s “Essential InDesign Scripts” session at CreativePro Week 2021.

    Is the script available on your website? I am on a computer computer and can’t download the trial version on the In5.

    • Erica Gamet says:

      No, I’m afraid it only comes as part of the in5 install. If you’re able to install it on a home computer (I assume you meant to type “work computer” above), you could probably move just the script to your work computer.
