Export PowerMath Equations to ASCII

[Sudha_K]

Hi,

   I want to convert PowerMath equations to ASCII in indesign document. 

   app.menuActions.itemByID(471686).invoke();

  When I use this code, it shows the dialog "Convert equations to PowerMath ASCII", but the process is not completed.  Don't know how to complete the process.

How should I  click on 'Document' button to complete the process.  If anyone knows pls help me.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

I got some ideas that we can click the document button of Plug-In/Export menu dialog by using applescript.  But its not working for me. Code is,

tell application "Adobe InDesign CS6"

    set myString to ""

    set myMainMenu to menu "Main"

    set myTypeMenu to submenu "Plug-Ins" of myMainMenu

    set myFontMenu to submenu "PowerMath" of myTypeMenu

    set myString to name of myFontMenu

    repeat with myMenuItem in menu items of myFontMenu

        set myAssociatedMenuAction to associated menu action of myMenuItem

        set myActionMenuName to name of myAssociatedMenuAction

        if myActionMenuName is "Ascii Export" then

            invoke myAssociatedMenuAction

            activate application "Adobe InDesign CS6"

            tell application "System Events"

                tell process "InDesign"

                    delay 1

                    try

                        keystroke return

                    end try

                    delay 6

                    try

                        keystroke return

                    end try

                end tell

            end tell

        end if

    end repeat

end tell

Whats wrong in this.  Pls help me.
