Thank you for your "back to me".

I want those text, I can escape the pics.

When the large job finish, I need to group all the text in a rtf or word file.

it's possible to group multi indesign file into one, then convert to one rtf by script, but I don't know how can someone make it happen.

Hi,

Do you know that Kris Coppieters [Rorohiko] wrote a script named TextExporter [see at: https://www.rorohiko.com/wordpress/indesign-downloads/text-exporter/]?

Peter Kahrel wrote another script about this (not tested):  Free script Batch convert/export InDesign documents | Peter Kahrel

I've forgotten:  ExportAllStories.jsx (given as basic [JS] by Adobe).

...convert indesign every items...

Hi,

Asking for that with this words is like asking for splitting a PC computer to 50 Atari's and a vacuum cleaner from the rest.

Sorry, but you have to be more specific, especially if you "desire" a script.
