Python InDesign scripting: How to run a preflight check?

QUESTION

Python InDesign scripting: How to run a preflight check?

Asked 2021-Nov-14 at 14:58

This guide provides a very good overview of InDesign scripting using Python. I am able to open my document and export it to a PDF, but in addition to that I want to check if any textboxes have some overflowing text. I wanted to accomplish this using some preflight checking, but when I tried to call

myPreflight = app.PreflightProcesses.add(myDocument, myProfile)

I got the error "Missing required parameter 'TargetObject' for method 'Add'.", although according to the documentation I did provide the target object.

I would really appreciate a concrete example on how to check for overflowing text, as I am rather new to this approach. Thank you for your time!
