Feature Question: Generic Macro Capability

[john_miano@adobeforums.com]

Does indesign have any support for embedded macros along the lines that Word does?

1. Is there any way to insert any non-printing text into a story?
e.g. "{XREF XYZ}" and then be able to find what page "XREF XYZ" is on?

2. Is there any way to embed some executable code into a story that generates text?

{IF LANG=ENGLISH PRINT MONTH-DAY-YEAR ELSE PRINT DAY-MONTH-YEAR}

No to all your questions.

Sadly.
