Remove hyphenate throughout the file

my file is of around 50 pages and it contains lots of text boxes with hyphenate option ON, is there way or script to remove hyphenate throughout the file at once...

thanks in advance

Did you not use paragraph styles?

This jsx script turns off hyphenation in an active document, also modifies Paragraph styles accordingly. The code isn't mine, sorry, couldn't detect original author now...

Application.prototype.main=function()
{
if(this.documents.length>0)
{
var doc= this.activeDocument;
doc.stories.everyItem().hyphenation=false;
var paraSt = doc.paragraphStyles.everyItem().getElements();
for(var i=0; i<paraSt.length; i++)
{
if(paraSt.name.indexOf("[")==-1)
{
paraSt.hyphenation=false;
}
}
}
}
app.main();
alert("Hyphens removed!");

Thank You, Obi-wan, I'll write it down!

Light version:

app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().texts[0].hyphenation = false;  
var PStyle = app.activeDocument.allParagraphStyles;  
for ( p = 1; p < PStyle.length; p++) PStyle
.hyphenation = false;
alert("Hyphens removed!");

Hi,

Open paragraph panel from Type menu.. you will see the hyphenate option at the bottom of the panel. Turn it off. This Will override the style definations for the paragraphs.

If you have defined different paragraph styles in your document then you will need to edit each style(double click on the style name to open the dialog box) and turn off the hypenation.

Yeah, that's exactly what the script does... in one click and even less seconds

Worth to bother installing if you have more than 1-2-3 para styles...
