    This should work:
    ^.+$
    Find Format: Italic

    So the GREP that I gave you should work. Unless if only the digits are in superscript and the parentheses are not.

    I have never created an epub before, so I might be wrong. But I believe you achieve through adding a cross-reference in the text that links to the endnote.

    Find What: (\()(\d+)(\))
    Change To: $2
    Find Format: Superscript

    I just want to make sure: are these footnote markers? Because if they are ‘real’ footnote markers, then you change its appearance in the Document Footnote Options, and you don’t use GREP for that.

    The closest that I could get to look like that style is to create a character style with underline applied. The width of the underline stroke should be as tall as the type, offset to the right place behind the type. Stroke style: Japanese dots. And the stroke color AND the gap color should be the same color.

    Obviously, it’s not exactly like what you submitted. Because A: The underline ‘hugs’ the type to tight, and doesn’t leave some space around. B: The corners are very round, much rounder than the one you submitted.

    My pleasure!

    You probably could’ve done it simpler as well. As I believe that LLNYC is a name that is always by itself with spaces on both sides (except in a URL of course, where it’s followed by .com), then you can just write this: LLNYC (notice the space after the C). So whenever it encounters something else than a space following the C it won’t pick it up.

    Very simple, done with a negative lookahead.

    Please keep me updated.

    I believe that you actually can save a Find Format and Change Format in the FindChangeByList script. This is the way I do it:

    text {findWhat: "", fontStyle:"Italic"}

    Notice that I used the Text command, but GREP should work just as fine.

    Try resetting your workspace. If it doesn’t help, try trashing your application preferences.

    There’s not an automatic way, but there’s a faster way.

    Just do a GREP Find/Change. In the Find What field enter .+, leave the Change To field empty. In the Change Format field, under Advanced Character Formats select any language that you want.

    Make sure that the scope of the search is document-wide, includes footnotes, master pages, hidden etc. Then just hit Change All.

    Now to define it in the style, just go to any paragraph and redefine the style. It’s arguably faster then editing every style and changing the language.

    Does the list run in a pattern? Such as every two paragraphs are assigned to one number? Or are they random, such as two paragraphs, then one, then three etc.?

    Why not use the Pantone Color Bridge guide to find the CMYK values that matches the Pantone color, and then execute a Find/Change query to change it to that CMYK swatch?

    One of the techniques to do this is through smart objects in Photoshop. You create a shape the size of the actual flap. You convert it to a smart object, and then you transform it with distort and skew to the effect that you want. You can add a subtle gradient overlay to give it the effect of depth. Then you just open the smart object and place any file that you want, and it updates in the parent document with all the distortions.

    I’m not sure what you mean by ‘all the first word in any paragraph will be wrong, and mess up further search, if needed’.

    It doesn’t enter a ‘live’ letter M, it’s just a bullet, and a bullet is not searchable. So I’m not sure what you’re problem is. You can also use an em dash instead of an uppercase M, if that’s what you want.
