Raymomd Is sounds like we are working on a similar project, I have a catalog script that Ole wrote that generates a document with inline pictures. I have another script that I run using a hot key. I select the inline graphic and the script cuts and then pastes the graphic in the same place and applies text wrapping. I don't do this automatically because I have to manipulate the size and placement of each picture slightly. The script goes something like: myBounds = mySelection.GeometricBounds myY1 = myBounds(0) myX1 = myBounds(1) myY2 = myBounds(2) myX2 = myBounds(3) myOfset = 0.1 myIndesign.cut() myIndesign.paste() Set mySelection = MyDocument.Selection.Item(1) mySelection.GeometricBounds = array(myY1, myX1, MyY2, MyX2) mySelection.textWrapPreferences.textWrapType = idTextWrapTypes.idBoundingBoxTextWrap mySelection.textWrapPreferences.textWrapOffset = array(myOfset, myOfset, myOfset, myOfset) I'm new to ID scripting so I can't tell you how to automate the script but it shouldn't be to difficult to do.
