hi, next question ;)

in every example - document is opened, something is 
modified/created/etc. and document is closed ...

I see on list:
InDesign object model elements not present in InDesign Server
Application.ActiveDocument
and
Application.ActiveWindow

do all scripts need to operate like in "transactional system":
a) open docuement
b) do something
c) close document
??

I can't leave document opened ??
what if I have big document - newspaper with 32 pages A3, many articles, 
many photos, etc.
opening and closing it everytime I need to make small changes - will be 
horrible ...

or I can leave document opened - after Save of course ;) - and when next 
script try to open same document - it will "connect" to open document ??


I don't know English very well - but I can't find ANY info about my 
above question ...
I can find example with creating guidelines ... why do I need guidelines 
if I create document on system without UI ??
there is no information about "how InDesign CS2 Server work - how manage 
documents, about it's work philosophy" ... or document with all this 
informations exist somewhere but I can't find it ??

thanks
robin
