InDesignSecrets<\/a> does us the honor once again of introducing a product of ours to its readers : InlineMerge.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/em>This script extends datamerge feature by generating all the records inline in a same box.<\/strong> It’s a perfect tool for anyone that wants to create directories<\/strong> without using XML injection or buying plug-ins for\u00a0for single use only.<\/p>\n

Formerly, InDesign Secrets<\/a>\u00a0already introduced\u00a0CSV2TABLE<\/a>\u00a0Basic. Later,\u00a0David Blatner<\/a><\/strong>, one of the website contributors, told me he wanted to find a tool able to inject datamerge contents within a same story. As we were achieving our\u00a0CSV2TABLE Pro prototype, we had all the material at hand to quickly set InlineMerge.<\/p>\n

How does it work ? Just set your datamerge tags in a text frame.
\n<\/strong>You can use either regular text or anchored objects.<\/p>\n

\"inline<\/a><\/p>\n

Run the script.<\/strong> You can then specify if you want to use a simple space character or a carriage return as a separator<\/strong> between every group of data.<\/p>\n

\"inline<\/a><\/p>\n

InlineMerge then injects all the records in one <\/strong>continuous<\/strong>\u00a0flow.<\/p>\n

\"inline<\/a><\/p>\n

La m\u00eame avec des objets ancr\u00e9s :<\/p>\n

\"inline<\/a><\/p>\n

Et le r\u00e9sultat\u2026<\/p>\n

\"inline<\/a><\/p>\n

Unlike InDesign standard DataMerge feature that will create a compound of dissociated frames at best, you now get an unique and contiuous flow. <\/strong>It’s now up to you to rearrange your layout stressless as all the merged data will fit.<\/p>\n

Thanks again to InDesign Secrets for they <\/strong>playful\u00a0<\/strong>introduction of InlineMerge ! Read the genuine post here.<\/a><\/p>\n
