For this particular requirement, you can achieve like this:
var sortedPage = [];
var sortedString = [];
var myDoc = app.documents[0];
for(var p = 0; p < myDoc.pages.length; p++){
for(var t = 0; t < myDoc.pages[p].textFrames.length; t++){
var txt = myDoc.pages[p].textFrames[t].contents.toString();
if(txt != ""){
if(txt < sortedString[sortedString.length-1]){
var index = sortedString.length-1;
while(index > 0 && txt < sortedString[index-1]) index--;
sortedString.splice(index, 0, txt);
sortedPage.splice(index, 0, myDoc.pages[p]);
}
else{
sortedString.push(txt);
sortedPage.push(myDoc.pages[p]);
}
}
}
}
//~ alert(sortedPage);
alert(sortedString);

It looks to me if OP wants to select those pages which has already applied particular object style, then it can be easily done like this :
findObjectStyle("Test Object Style Name");
function findObjectStyle(objectStyleName){
var myDoc = app.documents[0];
app.findObjectPreferences.appliedObjectStyles = objectStyleName;
var allFound = myDoc.findObject();
for(var i = 0; i < allFound.length; i++){
app.windows[0].activePage = allFound[i].parentPage;
allFound[i].select();
$.sleep(2000);
}
}
And as far as original code is concern, in that OP is trying to find something with grep or regexp & hardcoded activating Page using variable "i" independent of either there is any object with specific object style is available or not.
And forcefully applying that object style to first text frame of every next page.
Which seems to me is inaccurate.

Use this code snippet & check & see:
main();
function main(){
var lesStyle = ['Blue'];
var leDoc, fs, i, y, f, p, ip;
leDoc = app.activeDocument;
app.changeGrepPreferences = app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
for (y =0; y < lesStyle.length; y++) {
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "\\r$";
app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = lesStyle[y];
var _tmp = leDoc.changeGrep();
}
app.changeGrepPreferences = app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
for (y = 0; y < lesStyle.length; y++) {
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "";
app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = lesStyle[y];
fs = leDoc.findGrep(true);
for (i = 0; i < fs.length; i++){
f = fs[i];
if ((p = f.parentTextFrames[0].parent) instanceof Character){
var index = p.index;
p.insertionPoints[0].contents = '\r';
if(p.parent.characters[index].paragraphs[0].characters.length > 1){
p.insertionPoints[0].contents = '\r';
f.parent.texts.everyItem().move(LocationOptions.AFTER, p.parent.characters[index].paragraphs[0].insertionPoints[0]);
}
else{
f.parent.texts.everyItem().move(LocationOptions.AFTER, p.parent.characters[index].paragraphs[0].insertionPoints[0]);
}
ip = f.parentTextFrames[0].parent.insertionPoints[0];
p.parent.characters[index].paragraphs[0].appliedParagraphStyle = lesStyle[y];
p.contents = "";
}
}
}
}

Try this code snippet:
This will put the content at exact position of anchored.
main();
function main(){
var lesStyle = ['Titre 6','Titre 7'];
var leDoc, fs, i, y, f, p, ip;
leDoc = app.activeDocument; // le document
app.changeGrepPreferences = app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
for (y =0; y < lesStyle.length; y++) {
with (app.findGrepPreferences){
findWhat = "\\r$"; // la commande de la recheche
appliedParagraphStyle = lesStyle[y];
}
var _tmp = leDoc.changeGrep();
}
app.changeGrepPreferences = app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
for (y =0; y < lesStyle.length; y++) {
with (app.findGrepPreferences){
findWhat = ""; // la commande de la recheche
appliedParagraphStyle = lesStyle[y];
} // fin
fs = leDoc.findGrep(true); // recheche ce qui est dans la fenêtre Find/replace
for (i = 0; i < fs.length; i++){ // passe sur chaque object trouvé
f = fs[i];
if ((p = f.parentTextFrames[0].parent) instanceof Character){
//=========================================
// Below these two lines are reason for putting it to beginning of paragraph
//~ p.paragraphs[0].insertionPoints[0].contents = '\r';
//~ ip = p.paragraphs[0].insertionPoints[0];
//=========================================
f.parentTextFrames[0].parent.insertionPoints[0].contents = '\r';
ip = f.parentTextFrames[0].parent.insertionPoints[0];
//=========================================
f.parent.texts.everyItem().move(LocationOptions.before, ip);
p.contents = ""; // supretion de l'ancre
}
}
}
}

This snippet will do the job :
var myDoc = app.documents[0];
for(var i = 0; i < myDoc.pages.length; i++){
for(var p = 0; p < myDoc.pages[i].pageItems.length; p++){
if(myDoc.pages[i].pageItems[p].epss.length > 0){
myDoc.pages[i].pageItems[p].createHyperlinkQRCode("https://www.[new website]");
}
}
}

Thanks @Manan Joshi for the real quick reply.
I was making a really small mistake for this.
I was trying to do it for Application, that is the reason may be I was not getting that.
app.taggedPDFPreferences.structureOrder = TaggedPDFStructureOrderOptions.USE_ARTICLES;
Thanks for clearifying my concern.

Hi everybody,
Today I am stuck with this check box to be enable/disable. I tried searching but could not find.
Please guide me on this, how to check/uncheck the box in article "Use for Reading Order in Tagged PDF".
Thanks

Can you show us the event listner that you have put in that code?
If you can share it, then we might get idea why it is behaving in that sense.

For this issue, there is one solution.
While adding bookmark store the name of bookmark & bookmark in a multidimensional array.
Once finished creating all the bookmark, then assign name again.
So names will be refreshed.

Just one more validation added. Now you check & see:
#target indesign
#targetengine "session"
main();
function main(){
var myBeforeExportEvList = app.addEventListener("beforeExport", checkLayer, false);
}
function checkLayer(e){
var listOfLayerNames = ["N-Spacing", "Specification Box", "Dieline", "FPO/Variable Area", "ARTWORK", "Pre-Printed Artwork", "Substrate - for foil/clear plastic", "Technical Details"];
var match = "";
var outOfList = "";
for(var i = 0; i < app.activeDocument.layers.length; i++){
var found = false;
for(var j = 0; j < listOfLayerNames.length; j++){
if(listOfLayerNames[j] == app.activeDocument.layers[i].name){
match += app.activeDocument.layers[i].name+"\n";
found = true;
break;
}
}
if(!found) outOfList += app.activeDocument.layers[i].name+"\n";
}
if(match != ""){
if (!confirm("Unwanted Layers is present:"+"\r"+outOfList)){
e.stopPropagation();
e.preventDefault();

You can put this script in start up folder instead of script panel. So every time your application restarts this script will be executed.

You need to add event listner.
So that it should be invoked before exporting PDF & that script should check layer names & if your requirement doesn't fullfills it should prevent the default action.

languageWithVendors.hyphenationVendor = "Hunspell";
languageWithVendors.spellingVendor = "Hunspell";
doc.textDefaults.appliedLanguage = languageWithVendors;
