Reply To: Jongware: Your Preptext.jsx script breaks in 5.5?

But when I ran preptext.jsx (Mar 30, 2010 10:41 PM version), it decoupled the all caps relationship from the paragraph style, created a Caps character style and applied to it.

That's the correct, and expected, behavior. As I noted before, preptext is not designed to work 'afterwards'. It searches for a character attribute that does not have a character style applied to it — so if your formatting (in bold, caps, underline or whatsit) is defined in the Paragraph style, rather than as plain applied formatting, it will pick up this as well.

Many scripts seem to be behind InDesign updates. I can't complain because they are free. But it would be great if script developers catch up soon.

I wrote preptext to preprocess freshly imported formatted Word files. Using it for any other purpose is at your own risk.
