Hi,
I have created assignment by script and move stories to it. But the assignment, after move stories, becomes huge, with more than 200Mb.
The native assignment in indesign, likes make a compression and the script not. How about?

@Uwe, yes it is slow with even a single tab.

Re: find specific hyphenated word
Yes -- by making a list of all occurrences of that word (which is a built-in function), and then removing the ones that are not hyphenated (which is not, but pretty easy).
Note that finding multiple words is a pretty useless operation. Usually you are interested in locating the first (or next) occurrence, or you want to find them then and then do something. A potential problem, however, is that 'doing something' to an hyphenated word may change the running text, and so words that were earlier reported as 'not hyphenated' could be broken, and the reverse.
The following script will find all hyphenated occurrences of 'nonfunctional' ... and then do nothing with that information.
app.findTextPreferences = app.changeTextPreferences = null; app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "nonfunctional"; app.findChangeTextOptions.wholeWord = true; list = app.activeDocument.findText(); for (i=list.length-1; i>=0; i--) if (list[i].lines.length < 2) list.splice(i,1);

Re: find specific hyphenated word
Jongware,
Very interesting script. I am very sure it will have many possibilities.
IT is possible to use a list of words instead of only one?
Thanks for this piece.

Re: find specific hyphenated word
Put it in a loop. But its usefulness depends heavily on what you do with the words you find. Finding is okay, then having something automatically done not.

Re: Hyphenated word in CS6
Hi Sudha,
Try this.
var sel = app.selection[0], paras = sel.parentTextFrames[0].paragraphs.everyItem().getElements(), str = "";
for(var i =0;i<paras.length;i++)
{ var _lines = paras[i].lines.everyItem().getElements(); if(_lines.length > 1) { for(var j =0;j<_lines.length;j++) { if(_lines[j].words[-1].lines.length >1 && _lines[j].words[-1].contents.indexOf(".") == -1) { str +=_lines[j].words[-1].contents + "\r"; } } } }
alert(str);

Re: Hyphenated word in CS6
Hi,
Thanks for ur reply...
If i use the above code, both url and the word contains dot (".") is skipped. But for below case, the word software is hyphenated but its contains dot so its skipped. But i want to report this word.
Also I need to get the hyphenated word from tables and footnotes.

Hi Sudha,
Try this,

var _stories = doc.stories.everyItem().getElements();
var str = "";
for(var k =0;k<_stories.length;k++)
{ var paras = _stories[k].paragraphs.everyItem().getElements(), fn = _stories[k].footnotes.everyItem().getElements(), _tables = _stories[k].tables.everyItem().getElements(); findhyphenation(paras) for(var l=0;l<fn.length;l++) { var paras1 = fn[l].paragraphs.everyItem().getElements(); findhyphenation(paras1) } for(var m=0;m<_tables.length;m++) { var _cells = _tables[m].cells.everyItem().getElements(); for(var n=0;n<_cells.length;n++) { var paras2 = _cells[n].paragraphs.everyItem().getElements(); findhyphenation(paras2) } } }
function findhyphenation(paras)

Re: Hyphenated word in CS6
Hi Chinna,
Thank you....
Its working for tables and footnote. But for the above attachment (software.) is skipped from report. Its hyphenated word so it should be reported.
Our condition is word's lines is greater than 1 is hyphenated. when using condition ".", If a word contains 2 lines using any other special character it will be reported as hyphenated. But it should not report know.
(Samples created for testing purpose)
In the above attachment We should reported only consoleWriteLine( (2nd one). 1st and 3rd one is not hyphenated but it contains 2 lines.

Re: Hyphenated word in CS6
Hi Chinna,
If i changed the condition like this, Its working for the word "software."
function findhyphenation(paras)
{
for(var i =0;i<paras.length;i++)
{
var _lines = paras[i].lines.everyItem().getElements();
if(_lines.length > 1)
{
for(var j =0;j<_lines.length;j++)
{
if(_lines[j].words[-1].lines.length >1 &&(( _lines[j].words[-1].contents.indexOf(".") == -1) || (_lines[j].words[-1].contents.indexOf(".") == _lines[j].words[-1].characters.length-1)))
{
str +=_lines[j].words[-1].contents + "\r";
}
}
}
}
}
But my doubt is, will it work for all cases (If contain any other special character) when the non-hyphenated word with two lines...

Re: Bullet and Number - Tab Position
Jarek,
if you set your values e.g. to Left Indent: 20 mm, First Line Indent 20 mm, Tab Position 50,8 mm, you will get autoamtically a tab on the ruler in the tabs bar. However: If you delete the tab in the ruler, the value in the bullets and numbering dialog is still alive and honored.
If you try to control this value, there is no tabStops[0] >> therefore no possibility to control the position ?! Sudha is this your problem?

Re: Hyphenated word in CS6
Hi Chinna,
In the above code, If a word contains 2 lines and last character is "." and we skipped that dot, treated it as a hyphenated word. Where as, a word contains 2 lines and a word contains dot inbetween the word is treated as non-hyphenated word right???
In this image, Console/WriteLin( is reported as hyphenated word. But its not hyphenated.
If we use this condition, it will work wrongly when any other character breaks word... Its my ques....

Re: Bullet and Number - Tab Position
Hi Kai,
Agree, thats how semi-automated feature works - something is going on in background but don't touch it cause "semi" starts to work against you. Microsoft Office has much more "successes" here.

I want to get all paragraphs of a document
Hi ,
I want to get all paragraphs of a document(where document has table and cell and it contains some para as well)
Here is my script.
var objDoc = app.activeDocument;
var objDocName= objDoc.fullName.toString();
var par=objDoc.stories.everyItem().paragraphs.everyItem().getElements();
var paraLength=par.length;
$.writeln(paraLength);
for (j = 0; j < par.length; j++)
{
$.writeln(j);
var text = par[j].contents;
var endIP = par[j].insertionPoints.firstItem();
var endTF = endIP.parentTextFrames[0];
var endCitationPage = endTF.parentPage;
var index=endCitationPage.index;
var offset=endCitationPage.documentOffset;
//~ $.writeln(text + " Page : " + endCitationPage.name);
//~ $.writeln(index);
}
This script does not give me the text which is a part of Cells.
Is there a property where we can get all the para from doc like :
var par=objDoc.paragraphs.everyItem().getElements();
↧
Re: I want to get all paragraphs of a document
Hi,
var curDoc = app.activeDocument; // all paras in stories var allStoryParas = curDoc.stories.everyItem().paragraphs.everyItem().getElements(); // all paras in tables var allTableParas = curDoc.stories.everyItem().tables.everyItem().cells.everyItem().paragraphs.everyItem().getElements();
Notice, that you get also paras that hold the tables!
