Hi everyone,
The below script is to find some space characters and replacing with character style. Its working fine with InDesignCS2 MAC.
//InDesign CS2//
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
with(app.activeDocument){
myNewCharStyle = characterStyles.add();
with(myNewCharStyle){
name= "x"
fontStyle = "Roman"
}}
app.findPreferences = null;
app.changePreferences = null;
myDoc.search("^>", false, false, undefined, undefined, {appliedCharacterStyle:"x"});
myDoc.search("^m", false, false, undefined, undefined, {appliedCharacterStyle:"x"});
////////
Now i am currently working in InDesignCS3, and i have also changed the script somewhat but its not working with CS3 MAC...
//InDesign CS3//
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
if (myDoc.characterStyles.item ('x') == null)
myDoc.characterStyles.add ({name: 'x'});
var myNewCharStyle = myDoc.characterStyles.item ('x');
with(myNewCharStyle){
name= "x"
fontStyle = "Roman"
}
function setupFindText(myFindTextPreferences, myChangeTextPreferences, myNewCharStyle) {
app.findTextPreferences = null;
app.changeTextPreferences = null;
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "^>";
app.changeTextPreferences.appliedCharacterStyle = myNewCharStyle;
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "^m";
app.changeTextPreferences.appliedCharacterStyle = myNewCharStyle;
//
can anyone help me for this. Thanks in advance.
Regards
Thiyagu
