Trying to find script language to replace swatches in InDesign

[bethk92162909]

I'm trying to write a script that will allow me to replace one of my swatches for a Pantone swatch, i need to replace about 5 swatches with 5 different Pantone swatches, i'd like to be able to run this script when I'm in old documents. Anyone able to help?

Hi,

share your code.

I'm looking for code to write the script

[bethk92162909]

I have old swatches in my panel and I have the new swatches in my panel. I'd like to get code that will replace swatch A with swatch B, or if there is language that will convert swatch A to a specific Pantone that would be great.

example:

replace swatch GRAY 44 with PANTONE 423

replace swatch GRAY 77 with PANTONE 425

The names in quotes must match what is in your swatch palette

var myDocument = app.activeDocument;

             myDocument.colors.item("GRAY 44").remove("PANTONE 423");

             myDocument.colors.item("GRAY 77").remove("PANTONE 425");

What is the criteria to replace the swatch? How to identify which Pantone Swatch to use for replacement
