Reply To: Footnote Special Character / Marker

You find that the way you find the script code for any InDesign marker: insert it in the Find/Change dialog and you’re there. In this case, open the Find/Change dialog, click the @ next to the ‘Find what’ field, click ‘Markers’ then ‘Footnote reference marker’. You’ll now see ~F in the ‘Find what’ field and that’s what you use in your script:

app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = ‘~F’;

(or ^F if you use text rather than grep).
