Couple of questions before going forward. Biggest one, are you Mac or PC?
Second, how does the copy get into ID? Manually? It should be fairly easy to
script it out. We run similar ones here. You select a textbox and
double-click a script in the scripts palette and it formats the text block.
We also have ones that format all blocks on the page. Which one would you
like? Finally, there might be a slight margin of error involved. Your
example actually includes 3 hyphens. Is it possible that a block will come
through without a lead paragraph but still have a phone number? Okay, last
question. Is it a hyphen or one of the special dashes?
