var contents = sel.contents;

for(var i = 0; i < sel.lines.length; i++){

contents = contents.replace(sel.lines.contents, "");

}

//alert(contents);

    reduceSizeOfOversetText(app.selection[0]); 

};

function reduceSizeOfOversetText(t) { 

        var d; 

        while ( 

            d = t.duplicate(), 

            d.name = 'temp', 

            d.convertAreaObjectToPointObject(), 

            d = t.parent.textFrames['temp'], 

            d.contents.replace(/[\x03\r]/g, '') !== t.contents.replace(/[\x03\r]/g, '') 

        )

        { 

            d.remove();

         //   alert(t.textRange.characterAttributes.size)

                if ((t.textRange.characterAttributes.size)<5.5)

            {

            alert("Text has been overflown  with point size of 5 points, please check the overflow text and fix as per SOP")

           return;

             // return false;

           //break;

           // exit()

                }

            t.textRange.characterAttributes.size -= 1;            

        } 

       d.remove();

       } 

kindly help on this.

Thanks in advance

Your test function check only first selection. You have to make for~ loop like below.

function test(){
  var doc = app.activeDocument;
  for (var j=0;j<doc.textFrames.length;j++){
     reduceSizeOfOversetText(doc.textFrames);
    }
  }

You can reference make loopin JavaScript.
