ORD - ORD file for a step ‘n repeat production

Just create two files e.g. test.txt (which has data), and an ORD file named test.ord with the following contents. These two files will trick the production of a standard step and repeat job including saving of completed job (InDesign file), and export of a pdf file and jpg file.
