A publisher I'm working with is being slowed down by a necessary change to their workflow. Maybe there's a script around to help? I've looked but can't find any, so I'm posting here.
Old workflow: Designers would autoflow a single, large Word doc that contained all front matter (sometimes >10 diff. sections) and chapters and endnotes into a book template.
New workflow: The Word doc is now broken up into 30-40 InCopy files, still destined for a single InDesign layout doc. (The InCopy files were created from a tagged Word doc by a different system, so they're all new to the InDesign user.)
Is there a script that, after the designers load a Place cursor with the 30-40 files (in the correct order), will allow them to single-click on page 1, and InDesign will place one after the other of the files, autoflowing as necessary? They still need them to be placed as individual InCopy files (so concatenating first wouldn't help). I don't think there would ever be a case of 2 stories being on the same page.
thanks,
AM
