How can I have my .jsx script when finished execute another .jsx script?
Maybe this will help understand what I am trying to do:
// WebCard.jsx file
function mySnippet(){
//<fragment>
var myPageName, myFilePath, myFile;
var myDocument = app.documents.item(0);
var myBaseName = myDocument.name;
for(var myCounter = 0; myCounter < myDocument.pages.length; myCounter++){
myPageName = myDocument.pages.item(myCounter).name;
app.jpegExportPreferences.jpegExportRange = ExportRangeOrAllPages.exportRange;
app.jpegExportPreferences.resolution = 96;
app.jpegExportPreferences.pageString = myPageName;
switch(myPageName) {
case "1" : myPageName = "EN FRONT WebCard";
docType = "Web/Web Cards" break;
case "2" : myPageName = "EN BACK WebCard";
docType = "Web/Web Cards" break;
case "3" : myPageName = "ES FRONT WebCard";
docType = "Web/Web Cards" break;
case "4" : myPageName = "ES BACK WebCard";
docType = "Web/Web Cards" break;
}
fileName = group + " " + myPageName + " " + date + ".jpg";
myFilePath = dirPath + docType + "/" + fileName;
myDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.jpg, File(myFilePath), false);
}
//</fragment>
}
//</snippet>
// execute PrintCard.jsx file
//<teardown>
function myTeardown(){
}
//</teardown>
Hope that helps?
You can easily include another script which will be executed at the point where you include it:
This should work in InDesign from CS3 upwards.
Here's a fragment of some ExtendScript I use to launch other scripts; I've used it in After Effects, but it probably work in InDesign, too:
The approach is to read the file and eval it. (P.S. another good tag would be ExtendScript, here.) Also see: http://omino.com/pixelblog/2007/11/15/binary-files-in-extendscript/
