What's new in 23.7.18

Cleanup

  • DefaultPrefs:
    • The default text wrap mode is now off.
    • Removed color profile settings.
  • DocCleanup:
    • Empty frames from '.guides' are protected from deletion.
    • Added '.segmentation' to 'Show/hide layers' list.
  • Added DumpLinks: Saves document's links to a TSV file compatible with ReplaceLinks.
  • ReplaceLinks: Improved reports (shown when run with Ctrl key pressed).
  • ReplaceSnippets: Find/Change settings are now cleared when script finishes.
  • SwatchesCleanup: Moved deletion of unused swatches as the last step.

Fit

  • TextAutosize: Fixed a bug that in certain circumstances reverted a frame's auto-sizing to height-only.

Export

  • QuickExport:
    • Major UI refactoring: most of the common options have been moved to workflows to make them more independent (in the future it will be possible to create presets).
    • Added an option to create Acrobat layers.
    • Added an option to exclude any layer beginning with '.' or '-' (do-not-print layers). You can also add a custom layer list or use the default one.
    • Added an option to automatically upgrade documents from previous versions of InDesign.
    • hack There is a hack that automatically appends the names of technical layers like 'dielines,' 'varnish,' etc., to the suffix; unfortunately it used to add them even if the layers were not actually exported. Fixed.
    • If you keep the Opt/Alt key pressed while clicking Start, the script will run without saving the settings.
  • Hide/ShowDNPLayers, PrepareForExport: Tweaked the internal list of do-not-print layers.
  • PrepareForExport: No longer creates an 'info' layer if not actually needed.

View

  • TileAll: Documents with square formats will use the generic Window ‣ Arrange ‣ Tile.

Misc

  • EAN: The code will be inserted into all selected objects.

  • LabelPageRatios: Now both outer (visible area, or page size if undefined) and inner ratios (margins) will be marked.

Other

  • Added a dot prefix to do-not-print layers (e.g., '.visible area').
  • Replaced layer 'ID' with 'info' to simplify layer management.
  • Increased stroke width when marking the visible area for large visuals.
  • Improved feedback when the current document doesn't have a valid path.
  • Added MasterSpread as a valid parent, thus scripts also work on the parent/master pages.
