javascript - There is now a working session event listener to time stamp a doc in a specific location in a text box on save. When that type of template is not open however (when working a different kind of job) indesign errors because the label (text box) isn't there. How can I call on the label to stop the event listener when a specific template type is not being used? It now tries to stamp all docs because the session is still open, and indesign has to be restarted. If we change workflows, I don't need the timestamp. I wish there were a way to get to the document level instead of the session. Any ideas on how to say in script "if the doc doesn't have this specific text box in this location, bypass the listener?" Thanks
