I have a Word doc which has endnotes entered manually as (1) (2) etc. When I place the Word doc in Indesign is there any way I can find these endnote numbers and replace with subscripted numbers.

Thanks

    Subscripted? Isn’t it a typo?

    Find:

    \s*\((\d+)\)

    Change:

    $1

    Change Format:

    Char style Superscript

    You’ll end up with superscripted number, without parenthesis and no space(s) before it.

    Thanks Winterm.Yes, that was a typo I meant superscript.

    It worked like a charm.
