Dear Dave,
Many thanks for your quick reply. As you noticed, yes, I am a beginner to Java, after many hours of repetitive tasks.
I do believe you understand what I'm trying to do, so here goes:
I tried your suggestions, and additionally changed the last myParagraphs to myContents as above, but now get this error on the last line:
myContents[0].move is not a function.
Here is the script now:
function paragraphs2textframes()
{
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var myContents = myDoc.stories[0].paragraphs.everyItem().contents;
for( var j = 0; myContents.length>j; j++ )
{
myTframe = myDoc.textFrames.add({ label : 'temp' + String(j) } );
myContents[0].move( LocationOptions.after, myTframe.parentStory);
}
}
paragraphs2textframes()
Thanks for your time.
David
