Dear all,

PLEASE HELP if you can

I have 650 pages indesign file, I used images n logos on every page and for design look and feel i had given 'Transparency effect' on some of images and logos. But now I want to remove the effect from all pages. As I am working on page by page, It is very time consuming. Is there any solution to 'remove transparency effect' from all of the pages in one go. ?

    If you have done it via object styles—as it should be done—you need to change the object style. If not, you have to go through any object by object, as you could have applied different forms of effects. You can specify an object style which is only defined as no effects, but if you apply it to any object you will loose all links to existing object styles applied to different objects.

    Hi,

    If you wanna remove "Transparency" everywhere, just do this:

    var myAction = app.menuActions.itemByID(67897);

    if (myAction) { 

         var myDoc = app.activeDocument,

         S = myDoc.spreads.length;

         while (S--) { 

              myDoc.select(myDoc.spreads.allPageItems,SelectionOptions.REPLACE_WITH); 

              if (myAction.enabled) myAction.invoke(); 

         } 

    }
