Please help!! I am a Prepress professional with a huge projectcoming up that will require High Resolution proofing of 2000 digital photos for a catalog we are printing.
Two of the tools we have at our diposal are Adobe Bridge, for image management; and Adobe InDesign CS2 for page layout.
I have an automated workflow set up to assemble 16 images at a time up to an InDesign page - InDesign will send the assembled pages through to a hot folder in our Prepress workflow system (Kodak Prinergy) - the pages will then be automatically processed and then sent to the proofing device. We are using a Javascript supplied with Adobe Bridge to get this process rolling.
Everything works fine except for 1 small giltch. All the images need to scale (constraining proportions) to fit their 1/16 portion of the IDesign page and some need to rotate 90 degrees, depending on their original orientation (portrait vs. landscape). The images that don't need to rotate scale correctly and properly fill their windows. The images that need to rotate scale proportionally, but the tops and bottoms of the images are cut off by their windows.
I am a Javascript newbie and Adobe has not been much help.
