3. BUG - Scripting: multiple paragraph styles for multiple paragraphs in one text box not working correctly

   Paragraph styles are not being applied correctly when setting more than two paragraph styles for more than one paragraph in a text box.

   For three or more paragraphs, paragraph n is set to paragraph style n, and paragraphs 1 through n-1 are set to paragraph style n-1. The expected behaviour would be that paragraph 1 is set to paragraph style 1, paragraph 2 is set to paragraph style 2, paragraph 3 is set to paragraph style 3, ..., paragraph n is set to paragraph style n.

4. InDesign Server + Catalina = heavy permission problems

   --- Update: PROBLEM SOLVED. See comment below ---

   We have run into to serious problems with running InDesign Server (IDS) on Mac OS 10.5.x Catalina: The problems are somehow related to file permissions and will only show when the IDS instances are started by launch agents (or launch deamons).

   This problem manifests itself in several ways we have encountered – using IDS CC 2020 as well as IDS 2019:

   1. Documents can only be opened from a limited number of locations – actually only one location as far as we know, the /private/tmp/ directory on the local machine. When one of our scripts (applescripts) tells IDS to open a file stored in any other location that we have tried – like the desktop or on a network volume connected to with smb or afp – IDS always trow back error number 29445, stating that the file is opened by another user or in another program (which its not).

   Copying or moving the document file manually to the /tmp folder makes the document openable without any error message. This might suggest a possible workaround – but no: the files cannot be copied or moved either by the scripts themselves:

   1. Any command to do something with files, other than files in the /tmp-folder, results in error ”Operation not permitted” when run from a script executed from IDS started with launch agents. Finder commands or shell script commands like cp, mv and touch all fails. So it’s not even possible to copy a document to the /tmp directory from the script before opening it.

   2. Trying to place an EPS-file in a document from a script in the ”forbidden” locations results in the same error message as mentioned first above: 29445. This does not happen with pdf:s, jpg:s or png:s. This is a smaller problem than the other two above, since it can be worked around by converting the eps-files to pdf.s in another process.

   But problem 1+2 is a showstopper.

   All these problems (probably having a common cause) are totally non-existent under other circumstances:
   • IDS is started with launch agents in systems older than 0.5.x Catalina – no problem.
   • IDS is started from Terminal with Catalina – no problem.
   • Indesign CC (client version) is used, under any Mac OS.
   There is no difference with IDS CC 2020 compared to IDS CC 2019 in this respect.

   The problems could be related to the new security measures introduced with Catalina, where access to network volumes and some local directories (like the desktop) are more heavily controlled than in previous systems, demanding the user to actively allow access to such locations. But with IDS, when started by agents or deamons, those dialogs never show up – only the error messages. And it’s not possible (as far as we know by all the ways we have tried) to allow such access for IDS.

   Another security measure, introduced with Mac OS 10.14 – the limitation for scripts to automate other applications without user consentis – is possible to handle under Catalina: A startup script (telling osascript to tell applications to do something) can force the desired dialogs in wich the user can allow InDesign Server to send Apple Events to those applications – once and for all. That’s fine.

   But using a startup script to force the corresponding dialogs for directory access will not work with IDS when started from launch agents. Whatever method we have tried, there is always the same the error message: Operation not permitted.

   Dragging launchd to the Full Disk Access panel doesn’t help either

   However, when IDS is started from Terminal, the same startup script gives us the desired result: The user is asked to give application Terminal access to the network filesystem – which we then can give it, once and for all.

   Starting IDS from Terminal is not a plausible solution in real production though, at least for stability reasons.

   So the question is: Why can IDS not be given access to file directories when started by launch agents? Why won’t the necessary questions show up?

   I guess the cause of the problems relies somewhere inbetween Apple and Adobe. The combination of launch agents and InDesign Server does not work in combination with the new Catalina security measures. Adobe certainly has responsibility, at least partly, since there is no announcement that running IDS by launch agents under MacOS Catalina will not work.

   We hav invested in machines that canon ot run systems older than Mac OS Catalina, so our scripts must work in that environment.

   Anyway, the most important question for us right now is: What can we do in the current situation? Is there a workaround?

5. Can't retrieve XMP-metadata from Cloud-stored files

   Hello Adobe and hello Community,

   I'm having a problem with a Javascript I wrote to retrieve XMP metadata from linked files, that are stored in a Creative Cloud Library (Bought from Adobe Stock -> stored in a Library, because i was unable to download the files).

   Ultimately, the script retrieves the Creditline of all the linked graphics in an InDesign-file / InDesign-files in a folder by bulk processing.

   I have to accesse the XMP to retrieve the correct copyrightinfo.
   @Adobe: On Adobe Stock you guys put the information to give credit to the creator in the XMP field "Creditline" (creator - stock.adobe.com). In InDesign you cannot retrieve that field by out-of-the-box extendscript methods like: Link.linkXmp.copyrightNotice
   Please add the method to retrieve the correct field in extendscript!

   The Script I'm running works perfectly fine for links, that are located on my local drive or server but it doesn't work for Assets that are linked in the document from Adobe Creative Cloud.

   My Script looks something like this:

      if ( !ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript ){
       try{ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject('lib:AdobeXMPScript');}
       catch (e){alert('Unable to load the AdobeXMPScript library!');}
   }
   
   
   var myFile = File(app.selection[0].graphics[0].itemLink.filePath);
   alert(myFile.fsName);
   xmpFile = new XMPFile(myFile.fsName, XMPConst.UNKNOWN, XMPConst.OPEN_FOR_READ);
   var myXmp = xmpFile.getXMP();
   xmpFile.closeFile(XMPConst.CLOSE_UPDATE_SAFELY);
   
   
   var myPsCredit = myXmp.getProperty(XMPConst.NS_PHOTOSHOP,"Credit");
   var myDcCredit = myXmp.getProperty(XMPConst.NS_DC,'rights[1]');
   if (myPsCredit) {
       var output = myPsCredit;
   } else{
       var output = myDcCredit;
   }
   
      alert(output);
   
   
      if( ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript ){
       try{ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript.unload(); ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = undefined;}
       catch (e){alert('Unable to unload the AdobeXMPScript library!');}
   }
   

   In this line I'm getting an error:

   errornumber: 1000

   errorstring: XMP Exception: OpenFile returned false

      xmpFile = new XMPFile(myFile.fsName, XMPConst.UNKNOWN, XMPConst.OPEN_FOR_READ);
   

   I'm reading from this, that the XMP of that file which is located in the Creative Cloud, cannot be opened.

   Is there a way for still retrieving the XMP-data from those files?

   Unless there is a way to bulk-download all the Assets from the cloud and automatically re-link them in all the files i want to check (which Adobe also does not support. You can only download one file at a time from the Creative Cloud App. Great job, well done, users are sooooo happy about that), I have to access the XMP in the Cloud-stored files.

   If there is no other way to access the needed XMP-data, please implement a fix to do so.

   Also posted here, but so far I didn't receive an answer: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/retrieving-xmp-data-from-cloud-asset-throws-error/m-p/11522046?page=1

7. HyperlinkTextDestination elements missing from anchored objects in exported icml

   When exporting icml from InDesign, anchored objects with hyperlink text destinations inside of them are missing those destinations.

   Steps to reproduce:

   1. Make a new document with text.
   2. Insert an anchored text frame with text into the story.
   3. Insert a hyperlink text destination into the anchored text frame.
   4. Create a hyperlink from outside of the text frame to inside of it.
   5. Export icml of the story.

   In the exported icml, the hyperlink destination will be missing and the link will be broken.

8. A new TextFrame InsertionPoints.count changes from 1 to zero when linked to a previous frame and the program effectively crashes

   Replaces a previous post - this is written and tested in VB Script:

   Set myInDesign = CreateObject("InDesign.Application.2020")
   Set myDocument = myInDesign.Documents.Add
   Set myPage = myDocument.Pages.Item(1)
   Set myTextFrameA = myPage.TextFrames.Add
   myTextFrameA.geometricBounds = Array(72, 72, 144, 144)
   Rem Add a page.
   Set myNewPage = myDocument.Pages.Add
   Rem Create another text frame on the new page.
   Set myTextFrameB = myNewPage.TextFrames.Add
   myTextFrameB.geometricBounds = Array(72, 72, 144, 144)
   mycount = myTextFrameB.InsertionPoints.Count
   msgbox(mycount)
   myTextFrameA.NextTextFrame = myTextFrameB
   mycount = myTextFrameB.InsertionPoints.Count
   msgbox(mycount)
   myTextFrameB.InsertionPoints.FirstItem.Contents = "This is Bob"
   Rem "Program Crashes"

11. False state with app.gpuPerformancePreferences.enableGpuPerformance if no GPU available

    Function GetEnableGPUPerformance() of interface IGPUPerformancePrefs of GetExecutionContextSession()->QueryWorkspace() returns true in case no GPU or a not supported GPU is installed on your macOS computer.

    To reproduce launch InDesign CC 2018 or later with modifier keys command, option, control, and shift pressed and confirm resetting the preferences.

    If you now check the setting either with some C++ code, or ExtendScript "app.gpuPerformancePreferences.enableGpuPerformance", in both cases the returned result is true , which is not the expected result.

    When you now choose Preferences > GPU Performance the properties are shown deselected and disabled, which is correct. If you now click in "OK", the above function call now correctly returns false. After quitting and restarting InDesign, the preferences still return false, the correct state.

    Looks like the preferences are NOT setup on first launch, but use a boolean default value of "true".

12. Crash when adding a "checkbox" into a "cell" of a table

    I'm trying to add a Checkbox into a cell of a table with JavaScript.
    When executing the code InDesign crashes.

    With my Script I'm looking for certain text in a table, delete it from the cell and then want to add a checkbox instead. So my code is looking something like this:

    var found = app.documents[0].findGrep();
    found[0].parent.contents = "";
    var myBox = found[0].checkBoxes.add();

13. Text variable instances. Please change TextVariableInstance::resultText from read only to read/write for modifying with scripts

    It would also be nice to plug a script to modify the text replacement from the text variable dialog.

    Such an opportunity is needed, for example, for alternatively replacing paragraphs that are too long with a shortened version.

14. Add an Application Event for "failedToOpen", similar to "beforeOpen" and "afterOpen"

    It would be useful to be able to create an Event Listener that would fire when a document failed to open. It would be great if we could cancel the default behavior using the PreventDefault.

    My use case is the following. We offer a script that adds a custom menu item to allow users to select, convert, and open files that aren't usually supported by InDesign. We want to be able to offer the same type of functionality if the user attempts to open one of our supported file types through the standard Open Dialog (File->Open).

    We would set up an Event Listener for "failedToOpen," which would validate that the file is one we support. If so, we would PreventDefault and prompt the user, asking if they'd like the file converted. If we didn't support the file type, we would allow the default behavior.

    The scale X percentage option shold have short key so that I don´t have to write 100% manually in the meny while working in prepress. When I update links in my prepress documents the scale down to 91% and that´s really frustrating that I can´t just mark them and use a short key to resize them to 100%. Especially if you have updated for example 50 links.

17. Make the (Black) Color Swatch a TRUE BLACK

    In the Appearance Panel, the (Black) color swatch is not a TRUE BLACK color and when this color swatch is used and a file is exported to PDF, Rich black is not achieved.

    The attached document shows a few shapes that are black. The top right is a true black color and the color swatch had to be changed from the standard (BLACK) color swatch in order to be achieved when exporting to a PDF. The left and bottom color swatches have the (Black) color swatch from the appearance panel applied.

    Please, Please, Please, make the (Black) color swatch a true rich black color (since users cannot adjust this color).

    Since the standard (Black) color swatch isn't true black, it will take me quite a bit of time to apply a new color to all my previously designed files that use your standard (Black) color swatch.

18. PreflightScope not working

    PreflightOptions.preflightScope in InDesign has not worked since at least CS 5.5. No matter what value is used, preflight checks the whole document. Here is a sample script (error for color image <250 ppi) that the issue can be tested:

    var currDoc = app.documents[0];
    if (app.preflightProfiles.itemByName("export").isValid){
            app.preflightProfiles.itemByName("export").remove();
    }
    var pfProfile = app.preflightProfiles.add({name: "export"});
    var pfResRule = pfProfile.preflightProfileRules.add("ADBE_ImageResolution", {flag: PreflightRuleFlag.returnAsError});
    pfResRule.ruleDataObjects.add("color_min_res", RuleDataType.realDataType, 250);
    currDoc.preflightOptions.preflightScope = '1-2';
    var pfProcess = app.preflightProcesses.add(currDoc, pfProfile);
    pfProcess.waitForProcess();
    pfResults = pfProcess.aggregatedResults[2];
    $.writeln(pfResults);
    

    ––> with a 3-page document with problems on pages 2 and 3, InDesign reports both problems despite the scope been set to ‘1-2’ (same with ‘1’ and ‘1,2’)

    We would very much like to speed our preflight process and get rid of the tedious parsing of preflight results only to discard pages not set in the scope.

    One additional note on its behavior that could be fixed, too: if you define a scope that includes page numbers not in the document, either as
    - a range e.g. "1-5" when document has pages numbers 1,4,5,6,... or
    - e.g. "14" when the document has only 12 pages
    ––> InDesign throws an error "Error 30477: Invalid value for set property 'preflightScope'. Expected PreflightScopeOptions enumerator or String, but received "1-5".", which is quite misleading.

    PreflightOptions.preflightScope in InDesign has not worked since at least CS 5.5. No matter what value is used, preflight checks the whole document. Here is a sample script (error for color image <250 ppi) that the issue can be tested:

    var currDoc = app.documents[0];
    if (app.preflightProfiles.itemByName("export").isValid){
            app.preflightProfiles.itemByName("export").remove();
    }
    var pfProfile = app.preflightProfiles.add({name: "export"});
    var pfResRule = pfProfile.preflightProfileRules.add("ADBE_ImageResolution", {flag: PreflightRuleFlag.returnAsError});
    pfResRule.ruleDataObjects.add("color_min_res", RuleDataType.realDataType, 250);
    currDoc.preflightOptions.preflightScope = '1-2';
    var pfProcess = app.preflightProcesses.add(currDoc, pfProfile);
    pfProcess.waitForProcess();
    pfResults = pfProcess.aggregatedResults[2];
    $.writeln(pfResults);

19. Scripted iterative document open/close fails to close files

    Note: my sample code is jsx, but the problem may not be limited to jsx. Change the filetype of my provided files from txt to jsx prior to using!

    We have multiple products that sometimes show a problem with document.close() not actually closing the file, leading to incorrect functioning, memory bloat, slowdowns, and we believe some crashes. I provide a test script that takes a currently open document and iteratively copies it, opens the copy, then closes the copy -- after the loop is finished, the copy files are removed.

    Important: If run from the ESTK or Scripts Panel, the script works as expected -- no problems. If run from a custom menu (setup script also provided), the problem happens every time.

    We believe we've seen this in cases where a custom menu is not the launch mechanism, and may be intermittent in those cases.

    We believe we've seen this in InDesign Server as well. My scripts have been tested in CC 2019 and CC 2020 and on both Win and Mac.

    In order to run the "Test_menu.jsx" script for using a custom menu, the "Documents left open on close.jsx" script must be in a "TestScripts" folder in your 'home' or 'user' folder (i.e., inside of "~/TestScripts").

    This problem is a real headache and is difficult to work around. It affects multiple product areas; we urge prompt attention to this problem.

    Thanks.
