[EmData] a forced text frame change

[Joe Mathia - Em Support]

Hi Andrew,

With Xdata, you can use «numtochar(11)» ( inserts a vertical tab ) or
«numtochar(12)»  (inserts a box/page break).  Both have the same effect:
jumping you to the next text box.

InData?InDesign cannot interpret these, though.  You have to place the
InDesign tag for a break into a variable, and use a put styled statement to
place the variable (and break) where you need it in your prototype:


«put ³<cnxc:Box>² & return into BoxBreak»
or
«put ³<cnxc:Column>² & return into ColumnBreak»
or
«put ³<cnxc:Page>² & return into PageBreak»
or
«put ³<cnxc:EvenPage>² & return into EvenPageBreak»
or
«put ³<cnxc:OddPage>² & return into OddPageBreak»

And later:

«put styled BoxBreak»
or
«put styled ColumnBreak»
or
«put styled PageBreak»
or
«put styled EvenPageBreak»
or
«put styled OddPageBreak»


Does this help?
