Dave,
Back to the first topic, I must have not followed every step because I still can't get the script to show me the overset text in CS2.
Did I paste something incorrectly?
if (app.documents.length == 0) {
alert("There are no open documents.");
exit();
}
myDoc = app.activeDocument;
myOsetList = myDoc.stories.everyItem().overflows;
for (j = 0; myOsetList.length > j; j++) {
if (myOsetList) {
function selectIt(theObj){
// Selects object, turns to page and zooms in on it
app.select(theObj,SelectionOptions.replaceWith);
app.activeWindow.zoom = ZoomOptions.fitPage;
app.activeWindow.zoomPercentage = 200;
// j-th story is overset; tell the user and exit
selectIt(myDoc.stories.textFrames[-1]);
exit();
}
alert("No stories are overset");
}
}
Thanks
