Well, here it is: my first actually useful (rather than just educational) script. It takes a document formatted in an OpenType font, which contains a character style with the fraction feature turned on, and makes all the fractions (with up to a 2-digit numerator and 3-digit denominator) appear all fancy-like.



tell application "InDesign 2.0.2" 
 	--clear find/change attributes 
	 set change preferences to nothing 
	 set find preferences to nothing 
	 set myDocument to active document 
  tell myDocument 
		   set myFractionStyle to character style "fraction" 
		   tell stories 
			     search stories of myDocument for "^9/^9" with change attributes {applied character style:myFractionStyle} 
			     search stories of myDocument for "^9/^9^9" with change attributes {applied character style:myFractionStyle} 
			     search stories of myDocument for "^9/^9^9^9" with change attributes {applied character style:myFractionStyle} 
			     search stories of myDocument for "^9^9/^9^9" with change attributes {applied character style:myFractionStyle} 
			     search stories of myDocument for "^9^9/^9^9^9" with change attributes {applied character style:myFractionStyle} 
		   end tell 
	 end tell 
end tell
