Gang--

Okay, I'll try again with Shane's suggested tag (thanks, Shane!):



//JavaScriptUnicodeExample.js 
//The old way--using Unicode strings (this does not work in InDesign CS JavaScript): 
//var myString = "<5B87><5B99><306E><30B9><30C6><30EB><30F4><30A3><30A2>"; 
//The new way--using Unicode characters (make sure you save the script as Unicode text): 
var myString = 宇宙のステルヴィア\rstellvia of the stars"; 
//...won't work in the forum unless you include the tag: 
//<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> 
//at the start of the message. 
//You can also use the JavaScript Unicode approach "\u" 
//var myString = "\u5B87\u5B99\u306E\u30B9\u30C6\u30EB\u30F4\u30A3\u30A2\rstellvia of the stars"; 
var myFont = app.fonts.item("Kozuka Gothic Pro\tM"); 
var myDocument = app.documents.add(); 
var myX1 = myDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences.left; 
var myY1 = myDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences.top; 
var myX2 = myDocument.documentPreferences.pageWidth - myDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences.right; 
var myY2 = myDocument.documentPreferences.pageHeight - myDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences.bottom; 
var myTextFrame = myDocument.pages.item(0).textFrames.add(undefined, undefined, undefined, {contents:myString, geometricBounds:[myY1, myX1, myY2, myX2]}) 
myTextFrame.parentStory.properties = {appliedFont:myFont, pointSize:48, justification:Justification.centerAlign, leading:72};

That seems to work (at least when the page encoding is set to Unicode-8 *when I paste the text*)!

Thanks,

Ole
