Hello,
I am trying to add an Applescript into my Scrips area of InDesign that would find every story (text variable boxes) and convert them to static text. Here is what I have put together, but see error.
tell application "Adobe InDesign CC 2018"
tell (every text variable instance of every story) to convert to text
end tell
Error Number: -1708
Error String: Adobe InDesign CC 2018 got an error: every text variable instance of every story doesn’t understand the “convert to text” message.
Engine: Default
File:/Applications/ Adobe InDesign CC 2018/Scripts/Scrips Panel/Samples/AppleScript.s/convertvartotext.scpt
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best,
Babs
