Try something like this:

tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
set change preferences to nothing
set find preferences to nothing
search with find attributes {font style:"Oblique"} with change attributes
{font style:"Italic"}
search with find attributes {position:superscript} with change attributes
{position:normal}
search with find attributes {font style:"Bold"} with change attributes {font
style:"Bold"}
end tell 

I don't know whether you will have to use the English names or not.
