    Thanks so much David! this series of tutorials looks very thorough and easy to understand. Thanks also for getting back to me so quickly! Unfortunately I am in CS3 and I don't see under the Window tool palatte Automation>Data Merge. The post mentioned it was originally installed in CS if one installed PageMaker… and it came in as a “stealth” feature in CS2… but I can't locate the option in CS3.

    Hello Jongware,

    I just did a Google search on InDesign batch processing, found this thread and signed up as a member so I could write to you. I am hoping that you can steer me toward a more 'dumbed down' solution. I don't write code and am unfortunately confused by your and duncancomics exchanges. I'm smart, but not in this world.

    Basically I'm working with a solar company and we want to set up an InDesign template to publish a nice looking report for each of our clients. We want them to see images of their house, the install, reports of their purchase, maintenance information, etc. We are getting a FLOOD of customers right now and don't want to manually insert these graphics for each client. How can we put the graphics into folders and/or name them and flip the switch to have them populate the template.

    I keep reading about Watch Folders, PowerSwitch, AppleScript… is there a basic way of doing what we need to have done??

    I appreciate your help!
