update:

I've fixed the page number using the following JS:

var currentPageNumber = app.activeWindow.activePage.name;'

Next, I need to take the current filename (.PIL file), open it, read each line in as a string (array?) and look for variables like VENDOR, UNITS, DIMENSIONS, POSITION, etc. and use those variables in placing textframes onto the correct page (the .PIL file also has PAGE as a variable).

Good luck to me.
