Batch change link appearance?

Is there a way to change the appearance of multiple links at one time? An overall setting/preference for link appearance? Specifically looking to change link type from 'visible rectangle' to 'invisible rectangle'. It's painstaking to edit every single link individually.

You can do it using this code:

 

for (var p=0; p<this.numPages; p++) {
	var box = this.getPageBox("Crop", p);
	var links = this.getLinks(p, box);
	if (links==null || links.length==0) continue;
	for (var i in links) {
		links[i].borderWidth = 0;
	}
}

    Thank you! I'm not very familiar with javascript (just enough to be able to run that or put it in an action). Would you be so kind as to help me understand what parts of that I need to edit to make it work for my document?

    Don't edit anything. Run it as-is.
