    Could anybody please help! I’ve been delegated the task of compiling reports that detail the use of rights managed images from very large brochures. Does anybody know of a script that will run in CS3 (I’ve been begging for CS5!) that will list the name of each link, the page that they appear on and the size of the frames that they appear in?

    There are some scripts listed here:

    and

    I don't think these list the size of the frame. I believe FrameReporter can give you size:

    but not as a list. Hm.

    It shouldn't be difficult. If you have a budget, mention that here, and I'm sure you could lure a scripter into modifying one of the scripts for you.

    Thanks for the advice David, I'll have a look at eveything you've mentioned. I'm sure I could squeeze some cash out of the boss when he sees how long this job is taking me!
    I've been using InDesign for years, but for some reasons it's taken me all this time to realise just how much help scripts can be.
