Most Commonly Asked Support Question
Question: The script is not working. I double–click the script but nothing happens. What’s wrong?
Answer: This InDesign bug can occasionally happen to any script, not just mine. InDesign preferences are finicky and—by no fault of yours or mine—occasionally go bad. When this happens, some scripts may not work properly (even though other scripts seem fine). InDesign needs to rebuild a clean preference file to will allow scripts to work properly again. Here’s how to reset InDesign’s prefs:
- Quit InDesign if it’s running.
- Launch InDesign.
- Immediately after launching hold down the following keys:
Mac Users: Command-Option-Control-Shift
Windows Users: Control–Alt-Shift - If you held those keys down fast enough after launching InDesign, you will be asked if you want to delete InDesign’s Preference files. Click Yes.
- Run the script again, it will now function normally.
NOTE: Because InDesign’s preferences were deleted, be sure to reset any default preferences you previously set while no documents are open.
Boring Legal Stuff
The following terms and conditions apply to all of my scripts. While I have tested them to the best of my ability and know them to work as I intended them to, like any software there may be bugs that I have yet to find. You use these scripts at your own risk. They’re provided “as is” with no guarantee of specific functionality. I recommend that you save frequently and keep backups of important documents when working with any script (mine or anyone else’s). I am not responsible for any damages or liabilities incurred by the use of these scripts. In other words: things should work fine, but in case I made a boo-boo please don’t sue me.
