I'm trying to create a book from documents in a specified folder. The script is basically the same as in the documentation. Meanwhile, the book has grown to some 90 documents with around 1200 pages totally. My problem is, everytime I append a new document, Indesign automatically starts renumbering the whole book which leads to the funny effect that even after all documents were appended to the book, Indesign takes another 4-5 hours to renumber the book (as it still has 20 documents or so go).

I tried to set automatic pagination to false but this had no effect. I can even see in the book palette's settings that it has been switched off but still ID is renumbering the pages for ages :-/.

Ok, here's my code:

on createbook()
	--Add all of the InDesign files in a folder to
	--the book content list of a new book file.
	set myFolder to DDRpath & "/ID2Doc" as POSIX file
	set myFileList to {}
	tell application "Finder"
		set myFiles to files of folder myFolder
		repeat with myFileCounter from 1 to (count myFiles)
			if file type of item myFileCounter of myFiles is "InDd" then
				if (item myFileCounter of myFiles) is not "index.indd" then
					copy (item myFileCounter of myFiles) as string to end of myFileList
				end if
			end if
		end repeat
	end tell
	if (count myFileList) > 0 then
		set myBookFile to (DDRpath & "/Dokubook.indb" as POSIX file) as string
		tell application "InDesign 2.0.2"
			set myBook to make book with data myBookFile
			tell myBook
				set properties to {automatic pagination:false}
			end tell
			--Add the files to the book content list in the reverse of the
			--order in which they appear in the folder.
	 		repeat with myFileCounter from (count myFileList) to 1 by -1
				set thisfile to (item myFileCounter of myFileList) as string
				tell myBook
					make book content with data thisfile
				end tell
			end repeat
			tell myBook
				set properties to {automatic pagination:yes}
			end tell
			save to myBookFile
		end tell
	else
		display dialog "No documents found."
	end if
end createbook

Any idea? Olav?
