I have an Indesign document with titles and subtitles (I use for each a dedicated style) that I must recall in the header of each page.
For example:
TITLE ONE (1)
some text
Art. 1
some text
Art. 2
some text ... and similar for about 3000 pages
will must be:
TITOLO ONE - Art. 1-2 in the page where is the text of Art. 1 and Art. 2.
The next page will must be: TITOLO ONE - Art. 3-5 and so on.
To do this I have used 3 text variables:
- Titolo, that change only when there is a new title
- ArtFrom, for the first paragraph article of the page
- ArtTo, for the last paragraph article of the page
I have two big problem:
- the first: I must eliminate the "(1)" (a note reminder) of TITOLO ONE.
- the second: I must eliminate the string "Art. " from the text variable ArtTo
I have searched for script (I can code script), but I have found only scripts that set statically a variable text, but I must use variable text that change on each page following the text on each page.
What I'm searching is the possibility to do some search/replace on the string content of a variable text that can go beyond the cancel of the final punctuation.
Can I have some suggestion from you?
Many thanks.
