InDesign CS2, on a Mac. Would any kind scripter be able to write a script for me that would solve the following: InDesign document has approximately 200 photo links. Links are numbered with a fixed prefix - 230010660 - followed by a page ref. So a photo on page 4 might be 230010660.P4.tif. Prefix has been changed to 0230010660. Prefix can be changed in Finder using a utility like Quickeys. However this means all links have to be updated in InDesign - a very time-consuming process.
