Script to Export Incopy Stories from Book
Does anyone know of a script that will allow you to export Incopy stories from an Indesign Book containing multiple INDD files?

Hey there Judy, InDesign scripter extraordinaire Peter Kahrel (Peter Kahrel -- Publishing services, script development, InDesign consultancy ) posted a rough Book > ICML script to our InDesignSecrets.com forum a few years ago. I tested it and asked for tweak, and this morning he obliged. Works great!
You can download it here: http://indesignsecrets.com/downloads/export_book_ICML.jsx.zip
After you install it, open a Book panel (indb file) and double-click the script. It'll ask you where you want the stories exported to. Then it opens each doc in the Book and exports the document page stories (not master page ones) to ICML. It gives them a name that includes the frame ID, so it looks a little weird. You'll need to close the INDD files and save changes yourself.
