Any way to save to earlier version?

alexberd opened this issue · 1 comments

I tried to save a document using the document.Save(filepath) command but I couldn't find any way how to place an argument to define the saving version.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,
Alex

I found how to export to IDML. This may help others. I am closing this.

import win32com.client
app = win32com.client.Dispatch('InDesign.Application.CC.2019')
myDocument = app.Open(filepath)
newFilePathIDML = filepath[:-5]+".idml"
idmlType = 1768189292
myPDFPreset = app.PDFExportPresets.Item(1)
myDocument.Export(idmlType, newFilePathIDML, False, myPDFPreset)
