In JavaScript, I can map Styles to Tags using autoTag but how do I map Tags to Styles by name?

Thank you,
Richard

Hi Richard,

Check out MapTagsToStyles.jsx example script from here:

Hi Kasyan,

Hum...I probably did not explain myself very well.

Assume that tags have been created matching all paragraphs and characters styles and that "Map Styles to Tags" is done with "Map by Name". The only thing left for me to do, is now to "Map Tags to Styles" with "Map by Name". This last step is where I fail.

Thanks,
Richard

#target indesign
#include "/Applications/Adobe InDesign CS3/Scripts/Xml Rules/glue code.jsx"
var myDocument = app.activeDocument;

var myRuleSet = new Array (new ProcessAll);

with(myDocument){                    
   var elements = xmlElements;
   __processRuleSet(elements.item(0), myRuleSet);
}

myDocument.mapXMLTagsToStyles();

function ProcessAll(){
   this.name = "ProcessAll";
   this.xpath = "//*";  
   this.apply = function(myElement, myRuleProcessor){
      with(myElement){
         $.writeln(markupTag.name);
         var myParagraphStyle = myDocument.paragraphStyles.itemByName(markupTag.name);
         if (myParagraphStyle != null){
            myDocument.xmlImportMaps.add(markupTag.name, markupTag.name);
         }
      }
   return true;
   }
}

Thank you Kasyan, at first glance this is working well. Let me pass it through some more exercises and I will report.

Thanks again,
Richard

Richard,
another way to go is with the XMLExportMap
