First you're going to need some way of marking the frames to override. So you could select them and run: tell application "InDesign CS" set label of selection to "Override" end tell Then you'd need a second script that would go through and override the items on the actual pages. Something like this: tell application "InDesign CS" tell document 1 set pageCount to pages per document of document preferences repeat with i from 1 to pageCount set theMaster to applied master of page i try override (page items of theMaster whose label is "Override") destination page page i end try repeat try -- in case the master is based on another master set theMaster to applied master of theMaster override (page items of theMaster whose label is "Override") destination page page i on error exit repeat end try end repeat end repeat end tell beep display dialog "Finished." end tell -- Shane Stanley <sstanley@myriad-com.com.au>
