Adobe InDesign CS4 Scripting Tutorial

Constructing a document

     35

VBScript

Set myMasterSpread = myDocument.MasterSpreads.Item(1)
Set myLeftPage = myMasterSpread.Pages.Item(1)
Set myRightPage = myMasterSpread.Pages.Item(2)
Set myLeftFooter = myLeftPage.TextFrames.Add
myLeftFooter.GeometricBounds = Array(728, 70, 742, 528)
myLeftFooter.TextFramePreferences.FirstBaselineOffset = 
idFirstBaseline.idLeadingOffset
myLeftFooter.Contents = idSpecialCharacters.idAutoPageNumber
myLeftFooter.ParentStory.Characters.Item(1).PointSize = 11
myLeftFooter.ParentStory.Characters.Item(1).Leading = 14
Set myRightFooter = myRightPage.TextFrames.Add()
myRightFooter.GeometricBounds = Array(728, 84, 742, 542)
myRightFooter.TextFramePreferences.FirstBaselineOffset = 
idFirstBaseline.idLeadingOffset
myRightFooter.Contents = idSpecialCharacters.idAutoPageNumber
myRightFooter.ParentStory.Characters.Item(1).PointSize = 11
myRightFooter.ParentStory.Characters.Item(1).Leading = 14
myRightFooter.ParentStory.Characters.Item(1).Justification = 
idJustification.idRightAlign

Adding master text frames

Next, we add master text frames. The following block diagram shows the objects and properties we’ll be 
working with (the diagram uses the JavaScript form of the scripting terms):

document

masterSpreads.item(0)

pages.item(0)

textFrames.item(0)

textFramePreferences

firstBaselineOffset

textColumnCount

textColumnGutter

geometricBounds
