Stefan,
Thank you, I will try it also.

Richard,
another way to go is with the XMLExportMap

Thank you Kasyan, at first glance this is working well. Let me pass it through some more exercises and I will report.

Thanks again,
Richard

#target indesign

#include "/Applications/Adobe InDesign CS3/Scripts/Xml Rules/glue code.jsx"

var myDocument = app.activeDocument;



var myRuleSet = new Array (new ProcessAll);



with(myDocument){                    

   var elements = xmlElements;

   __processRuleSet(elements.item(0), myRuleSet);

}



myDocument.mapXMLTagsToStyles();



function ProcessAll(){

   this.name = "ProcessAll";

   this.xpath = "//*";  

   this.apply = function(myElement, myRuleProcessor){

      with(myElement){

         $.writeln(markupTag.name);

         var myParagraphStyle = myDocument.paragraphStyles.itemByName(markupTag.name);

         if (myParagraphStyle != null){

            myDocument.xmlImportMaps.add(markupTag.name, markupTag.name);

         }

      }

   return true;

   }

}

Hi Kasyan,

Hum...I probably did not explain myself very well.

Assume that tags have been created matching all paragraphs and characters styles and that "Map Styles to Tags" is done with "Map by Name". The only thing left for me to do, is now to "Map Tags to Styles" with "Map by Name". This last step is where I fail.

Thanks,
Richard
