But when I open a template and start working in it, how do I make it visible?<BR>
I guess (when I get my other scripts running) the only way is to save the file, giving it a name close and reopen it?<BR>

&nbsp;&nbsp;[AS] Open without showing window in InDesign CS.<BR>
<BR>
I just tried this and it worked: <BR>
<BR>
Tell application &quot;Finder&quot; <BR>
&nbsp;set myFile to (choose file) as string <BR>
end tell <BR>
<BR>
tell application &quot;InDesign CS&quot; <BR>
&nbsp;open myFile without showing window <BR>
&nbsp;open myFile with showing window <BR>
&nbsp;activate <BR>
end <BR>
<BR>
Without the activate, it was easy to conclude it wasn't working, but once I realized that it all might be happening in the OS background, that resolved the issue. <BR>
<BR>
I'm not sure what you mean about &quot;sending scripts to hidden windows.&quot; You can certainly operate on the document and its attributes, but because it doesn't have a window, you won't be able to do anything that depends on it having a window. For example, you can't have selections in a hidden window. <BR>
