I need your help. I am new to write the javascript.  I need to select the white text with overprint enabled (White means: C=0, M=0, Y=0, K=0).

I am writing the script but I don't it is not working properly. kindly highlight my error or advice me. 

Reference script below: 

#target illustrator-21

function fillColorOp(){

    var doc = app.activeDocument;

 

    doc.selection = null;

  

     for(var i=0; i < doc.textFrames.length; i++)

  

     var thisTf = doc.textFrames;

  

     {

          for ( var j = 0; j < thisTf.textRanges.length; j++ ) 

       

          var thisTr = thisTf.textRanges;

          {

              if(thisTr.characterAttributes.fillColor &&

           

              (Math.round(thisTr.characterAttributes.fillColor.cyan) == 0) &&

           

              (Math.round(thisTr.characterAttributes.fillColor.magenta) == 0) &&

           

              (Math.round(thisTr.characterAttributes.fillColor.yellow) == 0) &&

           

              (Math.round(thisTr.characterAttributes.fillColor.black) == 0) && (thisTr.characterAttributes.fillOverprint))

           

              {

               

                  thisTr.selected = true;

                     

                  };

           

              };

       

          };

   

      };

  fillColorOp();

Thanks in advance

Salut Kalaimani

Strictement ce que​ tu as demandé,

// JavaScript Document
#target illustrator
function fillColorOp(){
  var thisTf, color;
  var doc = app.activeDocument;
      doc.selection = null;
        for (var i = 0; i < doc.textFrames.length; i++) {
          thisTf = doc.textFrames;
          color = thisTf.textRange.characterAttributes.fillColor;
            if (thisTf.textRange.characterAttributes.overprintFill) {
              if(!color.cyan && !color.magenta && !color.yellow && !color.black) {
                  thisTf.selected = true;
              }
            }
        }
}
  fillColorOp();
