    OK, got you. Maybe the best way is to change the tab within the headings for an indent. Thank you!

    It WAS just affecting one of my documents. I thought. Because I created a list just like I described only a couple of weeks ago, in a different document. But NOW, when I either create a brand new document or when I edit the paragraph style of the document that did work fine, the same problem happens.

    I rebuilt my prefs as you suggested, but – alas – it didn’t help.

    But: EUREKA!!! I had a recently lapsed trial version of World Tools installed. Wondering if that could be messing with things, I just now removed the In-Tools and Rorohiko folders from the Plugins folder. That did the trick!!!

    Many thanks!

    Would like to report that the problem has been resolved. The initial issue was that I hadn’t saved the script as plain text, since – I know now – TextEdit uses rtf as its default format.

    Once the script file was correctly saved, I encountered some other problems running the script. These were eventually resolved by converting the Word doc into rtf before importing it.

    Hello again. As you gather from my last post I am a scripts newbie. After the useful reply above, I easily did the footnote to endnote conversion in Word. But even after a lot of googling and forum-research I have not been able to run the script successfully.

    I copied the script from the forum into Text Edit and saved it in the scripts panel with a jsx extension (I’m ASSUMING it’s a Java script? Maybe this is my error?). I then created a new InDesign doc and placed the endnote-jammed Word document.

    The script was visible in the scripts panel and I could start it, but I immediately got a runtime error. “JavaScript Error! Error Number: 8, Error String: Syntax error, Engine: main, File: /Applications/Adobe InDesign CS5.5/Scripts/Scripts Panel/Convert Endnotes to Footnotes.jsx, Line 1/…/”

    Any ideas? Many thanks!

    Thank you very much for your reply! Now all I have to do is figure out how to do the footnote to endnote conversion in Word and how to run scripts in InDesign.

    I’ve found some instructions, which I will follow:
