Hi, I’m not familiar with writing scripts so this is my question:
I found an excellent script by Peter Kahrel (www.kahrel.plus.com) which takes all footnotes and converts it to sidenotes by cutting it and pasting it into anchored text frames with an object style applied to place it at the side of the page. It’s a very powerful script, but it is not precisely what I’m looking for.
I would like to create “side-headers” that give a glimpse of what the adjacent paragraph is about. So I would like the script should take every instance of text which has the “SIDE HEADER” paragraph-style applied, cut it out and paste it in a small text frame that should be anchored in the beginning of the following paragraph (which has the “BODY TEXT” paragraph-style applied), and stay at the side of that text.
Basically, it’s exactly what the script does, just that instead of selecting the footnotes, I want it to select any text that has a certain paragraph-style, and anchor the frame in the following body-text paragraph.
Following is the link to the original script:
