      Is there a way to locate text within a paragraph, such as {Author: Is this term correct}, cut it, and paste into a separate text box outside the page margin. I am able to locate anything that begins with “Author” within curly brackets and paste an anchored box outside of the page margin at the end of the closing curly bracket but would like a GREP to actually then cut the text and place it inside the anchored text box. I am almost thinking there needs to be a script to achieve that but I am not real familiar with scripting. Maybe somebody already has a script similar to my needs that they would like to share? : )
