Can this also be used on a Mac?

[@beckysgraphicdesign]

I am not 100% sure. Most InDesign scripts run with Javascript, which a Mac will handle. If anything has Visual Basic code in it, I know it won't work on Mac.

Thanks, but sorry to say, this seems like way too much trouble.

[@beckysgraphicdesign]

For short documents, perhaps, but when you've got a 120,000 word file with 70 chapters, it's a big time-saver!

@@beckysgraphicdesign As you might know, I think Becky and Kayla are as good as it gets, but I just want to add one more thing here. Yes...the book you mentioned...wow...70 chapters(!) that is a *lot* of chapters. Can’t think of many times I’ve seen that many chapters in a book. In the next few weeks, I'll be working on a book that I think (I don't have the Word text yet) will be over 200,000...maybe 300,000 words and looks like it will be something like or 20 chapters...and I'm not planning to use a script. Wanting to avoid using a script, I'll set up paragraph styles for each element of the chapter heading (including values for things such as Based On, Next Style, Space Before, and Space After). Navigate (probably with the Find command) to each chapter heading. Then...two mouse clicks and then a right-click and the “Apply ******** then Next Style” to instantly style the entire chapter heading. No matter how many chapter heading elements there are, this works great. Then, on to the next chapter heading, etc. May not be as slick as playing with a script, but it is actually way better than the manual method of clicking to apply paragraph styles to every element of ever chapter heading manually...and I avoid the problems that sometimes happen with scripts.

Do you know addblankmaster.jsx indesign script?

[@beckysgraphicdesign]

I do not! What does that one do?
