I'm currently artworking translation documents in Arabic and would like a simple script to change all the text boxes in the document to read from right to left? They are now reading from left to right based on the english text. 

Does this exisit for InDesign?

If they are dine correct, change the parent style and all other will change without additional work.

Do you have ParaStyle(s) applied to your text? 

 

If not - then you can always do Find&Change.
