  Hi there,
  
  There’s a big thing going on right now on Instagram where users are uploading images that are split over 3 (or 6 or 9) squares.
  
  So… I’ve decided to create my content in InDesign using the following steps:
  
  1. I take my chosen image, and fit in a square measuring 3240x3240px.
  2. I use the MakeGrid script to create a 3×3 grid, every image is now 1080x1080px
  3. I need 9 separate JPEG files, so I have to click on them one at a time to export as a JPEG
  
  Is there a script or technique that lets me do step 3 in less clicks?
  
  Thanks!

  Solved!
  
  Just export the page as HTML, and you’ll have a folder of images

  That’s a great solution. I like it! Can you include a link here to an example?

  We can’t accept uploads on this forum at this time, but perhaps you can put them on imgur or some other image hosting site? Or dropbox?

  Cool. I’ll do that tomorrow — it’s home time in London now :D
