Hi

I tried this procedure of Logging into K4 using scripting. then i get an error which says Base Plugin isnt installed properly or is disabled

 <http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b4ec72/0>

I modified it to

#targetengine "session"
main();
function main(){
var myEventListener = app.addEventListener("beforeNew", K4Login, false);
}
function K4Login()
{
 app.k4LogIn("Admin","test@123");

}
app.documents.add();

I need to login into k4 using startup scripts. Is there any chance?

Thanks

I tried for quite some time but without success. It seems that the K4 plug-ins are not yet loaded when the events fire.
What I finally did is this:

I have an AppleScript in my start objects of the computer that just creates a document and closes it again.

activate �Adobe Indesign CS3&#8243;
tell application �Adobe InDesign CS3&#8243;
  set temp to make document with properties {showing window:false}
  close temp saving no
end tell

Then an afterNew Script similar to yours in startup of InDesign logs in. Not the most elegant way but working.
