Hi,

i was just wondering, is it possible to copy words that are in a specific paragraph style to an anchored text frame, using a script.

For example this sentence:
Is this possible? Yes it is.

The whole sentence has the paragraph style ‘question’.
The sentence ‘Yes it is’ has a char. style ‘solution’.

Can a script cut all the words with char. style ‘solution’ and place it in an anchored text frame at the same spot?

I hope you understand what i’m trying to achieve.
This is a bit hard to explain in words.

regards
Arne

Did you have a solution?

Hi Arne,

What I meant to say was:

Yes, it certainly is.

If you're interested, contact me at admin freelancebookdesign.com

-- I have one ready that I can sell.

Or someone here might be able to write it for you for free. It's fairly

straightforward.
