I know that InDesign is scriptable (and what a nice dictionary it has), but can a program be scriptable and not recordable? To be more specific - I am having problems using the script editor to record actions such as launching InDesign, creating and setting the page(s) and it's margins etc., etc, etc. There is no indication of recording. Am I screwing something up or do I have to script everything by hand.
