I assume, the font has no ordinal-characters? First idea: Insert a space after, give the space the underline and negativ kerning between h and the space.

Edit: Second idea: create a character style with strikethrough and offset, disable underline. Third idea: simply create a new character style with underline ;-)

Jette, I make a short test with Peters batch processor: So if you use his script, a idml-file will get the name from the indd-file. So in a second step, you can use also Peters script to create indds from your idmls. After that, select all your new indds and create a book.

I read this 3 times and think the task is not clear. Please provide a visal example before / after. Thanks.

Good to know, that both solutions are helpful :)

It seems not to be possible, to add a shortcut to “Unconditional”. But we can script this command and give the script a shortcut:

(function() { 
  var curSel = app.selection[0];

  if (!(curSel && curSel.hasOwnProperty ("baseline")) || curSel.constructor.name == "InsertionPoint") {
    alert("Select some text with a condition!");
    return;
  }
  if (curSel.appliedConditions.length > 0) {
    curSel.applyConditions([], true);
  }
} () );

Alexandro, Peter gave you this one line for adding local Magenta.

I think, the benefit of conditions are, that conditions are easier to control than local styling. Did you see the conditions-panel with the dropdown and those 3 options? If you want to remove the condition from special words, highlight the word and click on “unconditional”.

Hi Tim, there isn’t any script, that will fit your needs, but this script can be written for you.

I wrote something for our german forum years ago: The script assumes a object-style “SIDE HEADER” with textframe width, auto height and anchoring options.

var curDoc = app.documents[0]; 
 
// Zurücksetzen der Sucheinstellungen   
app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null; 
// Setzen der Sucheinstellungen   
app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = curDoc.paragraphStyles.itemByName("SIDE HEADER"); 
 
// Suchen und Ergebnisse in Variable speichern   
var results = curDoc.findGrep(true);   
 
// Den Text in einen neuen Rahmen verschieben   
for (var n = 0; n < results.length; n++) {
    
  var curResult = results[n];
  var a = curResult.insertionPoints[-1];
  var newTf = a.textFrames.add();
  newTf.appliedObjectStyle = curDoc.objectStyles.itemByName("SIDE HEADER");

  var myTextToMove = curResult.characters.itemByRange(0,-1);
  myTextToMove.move(LocationOptions.AFTER, newTf.insertionPoints[0]);
 
  // Zurücksetzen der Sucheinstellungen   
  app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;
  // Suchen nach
  app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "r+"; 
  // Ändern in
  app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo = "";
  // Alle Ändern
  newTf.changeGrep();
}  
 
// Zurücksetzen der Sucheinstellungen   
app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;

Aarti, since EPUB from InDesign is a difficult topic, I recommend watching the courses at lynda.com and visit epubsecrets.com. This gives you a good starting point.
