ExtendScript feature: asynchronous PDF export for indb books
I'd like to see an asynchronous export option for indb books as it exists for indd documents because why not.
Currently I work with 10 indb projects and I'd like to export them by 4 using all the power of my 4-core cpu, but I can only export them one by one due to lack of asynchronous export option.
At the same time I'm able to export 4 indd files using existing asynchronousExportFile() method.1 vote -

TextFrame ExportFile to Snippet fails if source selection is inner text (ex: an insertionPoint)
Select an insertionPoint, call parent textFrame through
app.selection[0].parentStory.textContainers[0]
Then
call exportFile (snippet) on that object and export fails.
It seems the scripting engine has kept the initial insertionPoint as reference when exportFile is called leading to an execution error (this export format cannot be applied to this object).
It should work.
Bug encountered with several versions/os.7 votesThanks for reporting

INumberConverter being ignore when exporting PDF
I am using CC 2017, but it has been an issue for multiple versions.
I have a custom plugin that implements INumberConverter on kPageNumberingStylesService Boss for a custom numbering format. This works beautifully until I try to export to PDF. If I print to PDF Distiller it works fine, but when I export to PDF it exports with default numbering style.
This is similar to an old stubborn bug, when exporting book to PDF would not do the numbering correctly. I don't know that it is related, but they both seem to say that the numbering on export is decoupled…

User Interaction Level resets during Data Merge
Using at the top of the InDesign tell block:
set user interaction level of script preferences to never interactThe way I understand user interaction levels, when set to 'never interact', it should suppress all dialog boxes from popping up.
When AppleScript performs 'merge records', and the merged record contains missing fonts, ONLY SOMETIMES a missing fonts dialog box pops up and breaks the script. One can close this dialog, run the script again, and the dialog doesn't appear. This unpredictability is why I'm logging it as a bug.
Looking at the JavaScript DOM, the userInteractionLevel is a setting at…

problems with work speed
I change formats of single letters or total paragraphs in a book. If I do this at a start of a indesign file (70 pages, 270 footnotes, no pictures, only opened part of the book) it lasts up to 40 seconds until I can work further. If I do this further to the end of the document the delay is lessens.

Epub toc links are not created when a document's toc is created by a script
To create a (navigable) Epub TOC you check the 'Make text anchor in source paragraph' checkbox. The links are created correctly when the TOC is created manually, but when the TOC is created by a script, the links are not created.
To confirm, please open the attached document and run this very simple script:
app.documents[0].createTOC (app.documents[0].tocStyles.item('Epub'), true);
The used TOC style ('Epub') has the 'Make text anchor in source paragraph' box checked.
Then export the document to reflowable Epub. In the Export dialog's General tab, select 'Multilevel (TOC Style)' at 'Navigation TOC' and at 'TOC Style, select the Epub style.…

Default Composer doesn't change via SDK
If I change the Default Composer via the Preferences Advanced Type dialog then query it in a script using app.textDefaults.composer I can see it has changed. However when I change it via a script it appears to change when I query it again but it is not changed in the prefs dialog and if I create a new document it is not the default composer. This is all with no open documents btw.

ExtendScript access to animation path object
Inside of the animationSettings, there's no way to access or manipulate the motion path as a path object.
It would be useful to have access to that path and be able to run path functions on it (add/remove points, simplify, etc).

ScriptUI Centering Breaks when switching monitor
If you switch monitors (i.e., unplug your laptop from a large monitor and go to present at a conference), and don't restart InDesign, scriptUI doesn't update the center position of the monitor.
It causes scriptUI windows to appear out of place.
