JavaScript for InDesign, 2nd edition

The Essential Resource for Scripting InDesign

Adobe InDesign is like an iceberg: The features you see in the panels and menus are only a small percentage of what’s actually available in the program; the rest lies below the surface. If you want to access those hidden riches, you just need to learn InDesign's "Object Model," the basics of JS, and how to put those two things together! Note: Kris Coppieters has written an excellent addendum to this book, specifically for Mac users. It shows how to use the ExtendScript Debugger instead of ESTK (which has been deprecated).
