Deleting spawned pages
I am trying to find a script that will delete all spawned pages, regardless of the number of pages. I want to be able to set the document back to original. The number of spawned pages may vary.

This is my simplified solution to my problem, no matter how many pages were spawned there will always be a page 1 until there isn't so I have a reset button that resets all the fields and then deletes page 1 twelve times. It will stop deleting when there is no longer a page 1 to delete.
n=app.alert("Are you sure you want to Reset?",2,1);
if (n==1){
this.resetForm();
}
if (numPages > 1) {
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
deletePages(1);
}
That's very redundant. Instead, you can use this single command:
if (numPages > 1) {
this.deletePages(1, this.numPages-1);
}
