Hi Mark,
Thanks for the reply, but this doesn't do what I'm looking for. In this example, every font of every story is changed. What I'm looking to do is change only the fonts where the applied font is "Zapf Dingbats" to "Times" ...
I'm sure this is possible, but for the life if me, I can't figure it out.
====================================================================== ========
Here's what I've tried, with some degree of success:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
activate
if not (exists active document) then
display dialog "No document is open." with icon 2
else
set myDocument to active document
set myClass to class of active spread of layout window 1 of myDocument as string
if myClass is "master spread" then
display dialog "This script does not work on master pages. Switch to a regular layout page and try again." buttons {"Cancel"} default button 1 with icon 2
else
set user interaction level of script preferences to never interact
set find text preferences to nothing
set change text preferences to nothing
set find grep preferences to nothing
set change grep preferences to nothing
set find object preferences to nothing
set find object preferences to nothing
set find glyph preferences to nothing
set change glyph preferences to nothing
set properties of find glyph preferences to {applied font:"Zapf Dingbats", font style:"Regular", glyph ID:"81"}
set properties of change glyph preferences to {applied font:"Times", font style:"Regular", glyph ID:"81"}
change glyph
set user interaction level of script preferences to interact with all
end if
end if
end tell
During runtime, I get an AppleScript error that states: "Adobe InDesign CS5.5 got an error: Invalid Find Glyph"
Here's the kicker ... if I set all my options in the Find/Change dialog window and comment out the following lines, it works, so I must be close:
set find text preferences to nothing
set change text preferences to nothing
set find grep preferences to nothing
set change grep preferences to nothing
set find object preferences to nothing
set find object preferences to nothing
set find glyph preferences to nothing
set change glyph preferences to nothing
