[JS, ID5] Change fontStyle

hello,

 

i have following script changing character overrides (bold) character styles:

 

app.findtextpreferences = null; app.changetextpreferences = null;  app.findtextpreferences.fontstyle = "bold"; app.changetextpreferences.appliedcharacterstyle = "bold"; app.documents.item(0).changetext(); 

 

the problem paragraph styles containing font style "bold" preset, get's character style "bold" assigned.

the script has skip predefined -bold made- paragraph styles!?

 

regards, sjoerd

hi sjord,

 

please try below js code, have test code in cs5.5 working fine.

 

 

var mydoc = app.activedocument; app.findtextpreferences = app.changetextpreferences = null; app.findtextpreferences.fontstyle = "bold"; var mysearch = mydoc.findtext(); for(var i=mysearch.length-1; i>=0; i--){     var mystyle = mysearch[i].appliedparagraphstyle;     // note: below font style not in bold script apply bold character style. if heading has applied in bold condensed or etc. script not work. please take care.     if(mystyle.fontstyle != "bold"){         mysearch[i].appliedcharacterstyle = mydoc.characterstyles.item("bold");         }     } 

 

 

thx,
