I have a pdf file with 1400 pages containing resumes.. there is an excel sheet with list of unique id for each candidate.. is there some tool which could search those ids one by one and print pages containing them.
searching them one by one and printing is very time consuming. there are more then 700 candidates.

I'm working on auto generated word documents that consist of multiple test reports.
I want to automatically create a table of contents where one entry refers to one report.
But I can't simply use headings because each entry should contain info that is not on one line in the report.
Something like this:
No.
Test Id
Description
Result
Page number
1
ANZ-131QZXY
UV Light test
Passed
3
2
ANZ-132QYXX
Heat resistence test
Failed
8
I know how I can retrieve the information from the individual reports in VBA but I got stuck on how to generate the table. Is it even possible to add entries manually to a ToC without a heading existing?
PS: I use Word 365 and it's important that the ToC will work when saving the document as PDF.
I extract reports from iManage on daily basis and I was searching macro codes that would automate this process. After much search in various forums, I found this Ed Mozley's link, which I found very helpful to understand about the retrieval process from iManage.
Saving to iManage with VBA
To retrieve reports from the iManage, Ed mentions using of GetDocument function which has 2 parameters (document number, version number). In my case, however, the document number changes everyday with the updates after day-end process and are always unique.
I would like to know if there is a way to generate the list of documents created on a particular date and that list contains Document Name, Document Number, Version ID, Document Creation Time, Database etc. information. If I could generate the list of documents, I could compare my list of relevant documents with this list and then pull the document numbers and save them in array and create the relevant copies using codes suggested by Ed Mozley.
Or can we create copy of document based on the document name that partially matches with the name of the document available in iManage?
Any advice will of great help.
Thank you

I am creating progress reports around 50 different companies in InDesign. The report is 10 pages long and has approximately 40 images and text fields that need to change based on the company.
I set up a data merge in InDesign and mapped all of the text and image fields. When I execute the data merge the text and images are mapping perfectly but it's creating one large 500 page report (10 pages x 50 companies). I.e. Report for Company A is on pages 1-10, report for Company B is on pages 11-20, and so on.
While I could break this up into individual reports in AcrobatPro, this step seems like it should be unnecessary. How can this be automated, preferably within InDesign? And how would I then be able to save each file based on a field in the merge csv?
I agree with Nicolai, I don't think default data merge option can create split documents.
Maybe you can use the following script to split your documents into the parts

I have a macro that moves all pictures and tables to a PowerPoint while capturing the figure name and number as well as the table name and number. I am pasting the tables in as .Shapes.PasteSpecial(ppPasteMetafilePicture).
This has worked great in the past but I have come across about 150 documents that need to be converted that contain tables that span more than one page. When the macro pastes the table it cuts off at the first page.
If I split the table using the macro it does not carry over the headers.
What I want is to be able to do is split this table into multiple slides per Word document page that it is on and include the headers of the table.
Since you're pasting as a picture the only possibility is to EDIT the Word tables. You'd need to read how many rows comprise the table header, copy those rows, deactivate the table header setting, then paste the row(s) at the top of each page. Then you can copy each page. At the end, close the document without saving so that the original still has the table headers.
I have a 300+ page word document containing hundreds of "chapters" (as defined by heading formats) and currently indexed by word. Each chapter contains a medium amount of text (typically less than a page) and perhaps an associated graphic or two. I would like to split the document up into database records for use in an iPhone program - each chapter would be a record consisting of a title, id #, and content fields. I haven't decided yet if I would want the pictures to be a separate field (probably just containing a file name), or HTML or similar style links in the content text. In any case, the end result would be that I could display a searchable table of titles that the user could click on to pull up any given entry.
The difficulty I am having at the moment is getting from the word document to the database. How can I most easily split the document up into records by chapter, while keeping the image associations? I thought of inserting some unique character between each chapter, saving to text format, and then writing a script to parse the document into a database based on that character, but I'm not sure that I can handle the graphics in this scenario. Other options?
To answer my own question:
Given a fairly simply formatted word document
convert it to an Open Office XML document
write a python script to parse the document into a database using the xml.sax python module.
Images are inserted into the record as HTML, to be displayed using a web interface.
