select all text in a document

That is impossible in InDesign. InDesign does not allow non-contiguous text selection.

You can see that for yourself: create a text frame. Type some text in it. Then copy the text frame and paste it somewhere else on the same page. Now you can select text in one frame or in the other, but not both.

Fortunately, there may be a way out. You say that you want to select all text – right? But ... why? Just to see if you can? (Well, then we're finished. You can't.)

Now if you want to do something with a script to all text, you don't need to select it first. Scripts don't (need to) work that way.

Hi,

try this code,

app.select(SelectAll.ALL);

thanks & regards..
