      Hi All

      I currently have a single text frame thats contains between 3-6ish separate paragraphs (single line breaks using space after).

      I need a script that will make a text frame for each paragraph and then delete the original frame, the new frames can just sit below each other as I’ll need to place these by hand after running the script.

      The reason I’m wanting to do this is that I have an annotated image and need to place the text around the image not in a single column to the side.

      Any help would be appreciated – applescript preferred so I can learn. I usually have a go at making a start but I’ve never done anything like this before and really don’t know where to start

      thanks guys

      You might want to take a look at a script from Jongware: https://creativepro.com/topic/split-text-into-separate-non-threaded-frames

      And a version he tweaked a bit later: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/652308
