Reply To: Save Indesign File with Specific Name in Specific Location – JS

Thank You Peter for the answer.
Your code works nearly perfect for for my need.
But there is one more thing ….

I want Indesign to write a file to a Folder which I’ve chosen during opening a xxxxx.INDT
Indesign KNOWS the path because alert from this line returns the right value of var SysFolder which is probably a string:

var SysFolder = Folder.selectDialog(); alert(SysFolder)

also I’ve made such variables:

var PlikiIndt = SysFolder.getFiles(“*.indt”); //alert(PlikiIndt[0].name);
var PlikiXML = SysFolder.getFiles(“*.xml”); //alert(PlikiXML[0].name);

to save a file name I made another variable:

var SaveName = “000_” + PlikiXML[0].name.slice(19,-24) + “_” + PlikiXML[0].name.slice(4,15) + “.indd”; alert(SaveName);
doc.save (File(“/Users/marcinploch/Desktop/TEST” + SaveName));

finaly indesign writes proper file name but in folder described by given string.

The question is how to use path from SysFolder variable ??
