    To me it sounds like you don’t have the pagination Rules set up for that library. Not sure if that is it or not. Window > Pagination Rules. Click on your library and set pagination from not to Once Per Record.

    That is my best guess without knowing more. EasyCatalog has also recently added a Formatting rules section. To me it is easier than creating libraries. I could go into more detail if you need.

    I spearheaded the use of EasyCatalog at my job and it has been a game changer for sure. It does take some setting up but usually once you have set things up you don’t have to do much else to keep it running.

    BAM… Done

    for (i=0; i<app.selection.length; i++)
    {
    try {
    app.selection[i].images[0].clippingPath.appliedPathName = app.selection[i].images[0].clippingPath.photoshopPathNames[0];
    app.selection[i].images[0].clippingPath.clippingType = ClippingPathType.PHOTOSHOP_PATH;
    app.selection[i].images[0].clippingPath.invertPath = 1;
    } catch (e)
    {
    }
    }

    Fond a script JonWare did for me a while ago and added some stuff. Now it applies the Photoshop Path how do I get it to invert the applied path?—

    for (i=0; i<app.selection.length; i++)
    {
    try {
    app.selection[i].images[0].clippingPath.appliedPathName = app.selection[i].images[0].clippingPath.photoshopPathNames[0];
    app.selection[i].images[0].clippingPath.clippingType = ClippingPathType.PHOTOSHOP_PATH;
    } catch (e)
    {
    // not interested if there is none
    }
    }

    Looking in to scripting it myself now but… I have to learn. I want it to Invert the Paths of selected Items. Trying to gather all the Scripting Items I need. I would be up for someone to hold my hand through the process. Now just to figure out the syntax… Opening some other scripts to try and figure this out.

    For selecting multiple Items – SelectionOptions.ADD_TO
    To choose which path – ClippingPathType.PHOTOSHOP_PATH
    To invert the path – invertPath

    Awesome that ID is capable of so much extensibility. Hoping for a keyboard shortcut in the future hahaha

    I am with you on this one… There is a keyboard shortcut? Where?

    Also this might be better suited for a Next Paragraph style…

    P1) Shoe Type – Next style “Shoe Name

    P2) Shoe Name — Next Style Shoe Discription

    P3) Shoe Discription with Nested character stlyle BOLD through “:” — next style SAME

    the answer to the slash question is to type them twice… Still not sure what you are asking. It might be better to set your paragraph sytle up to be the “variable text” format and then use grep styles to format the stuff that isn't variable. I am thinking that you are trying to automatically style the “Air Ring Leader” Text? Maybe you could send me a file and I could check it out.

    Turns out my Server wasn't ejected properly. had to do a “Go To: /Volumes” to preoperly get rid of the error. When mounting the new drive it was adding a “-1” to the end although InDesign wasn't showing that.

    Hmm not entirely sure but you could handle it through a Grep Style. In your paragraph style make a grep style that Looks for any instance of “£″ after befor the number “7″ and applies a charater syle that has -80 Tracking… It should have the same effect as kerning those letters although not technically the same.

    Use this GREP

    £(?=7)

    You could even do this to you Basic Paragraph style so it would be in every paragraph style you make in that document.

    You might try posting this on EasyCatalog's twitter page and see if they have another idea of how to do it. But that is my Band-Aid or Plaster or adhesive bandage if you will.

    in the create package folder dialog be sure to check – Update Graphic Links. Also a quick way to relink your links is to select them all in the links panels and use the right fly down menu to “relink to folder” then you can relink all the links at once.

    Thank You so much. I figured this was an easy solution. You have pulled through once again.
