Question

I'm looking for generic, practical and commonly used scripts

There are a lot of scripts available online, but most of these scripts are only applicable to certain line-defined needs.
I'm looking for a script that works for everyone and needs to be used regularly.

 

Would you like to share your most appreciated scripts?
I would love to hear from you.

Thank you very much.

HI Laubender

Thank you very much.
I had read some of it before. I'll take a closer look sometime.

Scripts are generally meant to solve particular problems users have that InDesign can't do on its own. Have you looked at the scripts that come with InDesign?

How about my ID-Tasker tool - but Windows only. Even free version is powerful enough.

Don't advertise.
Pity.
I'm so many good posters.

@Robert at ID-Tasker Robert was simply making a suggestion and offered the FREE version. 

Your original post showed a lack of understanding about scripts, and your response to Robert showed a lack of appreciation for any help. Pity...
