David: Yes, you supposed correctly. Ideally something like autoflowing text, but with a pic/text hybrid functionality.
I’m in the casting-about stage, gathering possibilities before proceeding. I would like to automate the process as completely as is reasonable, but as you already know, sometimes there is a good-enough solution that can be cobbled together to get the job done without having to design the entire universe. So I was wondering if there might be a hybrid solution involving the automatic selection of a master page based on image size, into which the corresponding image/text pair could be placed, but I don’t know enough about what’s in the InDesign scripting/automating toolbox yet to decide.
What I want to do didn’t seem that uncommon a task to me, so I thought the first question to ask would be who has already done this. Your links have been a big help getting started, thanks again.
