Hi there,

Trying to revive this discussion as I have the exact same problem as Liseann above. My footer text variables get converted to the variable name since they are on master pages. To get around this, I would like to make this script only apply to text variables on unlocked layers. That way I can lock my pagination layers and leave them as variables. Any ideas?
