All-to-DPS

This will convert multiple files (jpg, jpeg, png and PDF) to a DPS readable format.

This script is based upon a Adobe Released Script found here: Adobe's script

This script is a heavilly modified version of that so lets recap the differences: Adobe's version

• PDF conversion to InDesign
• Creates a flipbook like style book
• Automatically Fits the Pages

RedactiePartners Version:

• PDF, JPG/JPEG, PNG conversion to InDesign
• Creates a Flipbook like style book
• Create Single full screen Pages for Single Paged Books
• Automatically Fits the Pages
• Inputs for RGB Values for background Color
• Support for multiple Devices by providing your own resolution

a good resolution resource can be found here: Screensizes

Installation

1. Download the .jsx file
2. Copy it into the appropriate InDesign "Scripts/Scripts Panel" folder

Instructions

1. Create a single file for each page (be it PDF, JPG or PNG every page needs it's own file)

2. follow the following naming convention for the files

   Cover page:
   PCN1_publication-name-here_date-here.extension-here
   Inside Cover:
   PCV2_publication-name-here_date-here.extension-here
   Inside Back:
   PCV3_publication-name-here_date-here.extension-here
   Backside:
   PCV4_publication-name-here_date-here.extension-here

Like so:

4. In InDesign open the Scripts Panel
5. Run the script
6. Choose your options and choose the appropriate folder
7. Profit!

Upcoming Updates

• Proper commented code
• Look at possibilities for more advanced cropping system (currently it uses the PDF TrimBox)
