ParticipantHey Gert, you can club continuous marking sub-expression into one for ex:
(dkjfkdjkjd)(dkfkdjfjd)(jfkdjjfdkj)
It will be recalled as $1 $2 $3
or you can do it like this:
((dkjfkdjkjd)(dkfkdjfjd)(jfkdjjfdkj))
it can be recalled with one found: $1
try it…
ParticipantOooops!!! That was a heavy workout.
Scott, can you try these:
As you have already created a Character Style (Bold) and a paragraph Style let say (Size) for your body text:
MISSES: S (6-8), M (10-12), L (14-16), XL (23-24)or this:
MISSES: S(6-8), M(10-12), L(14-16), XL(23-24)
Just right click the Size paragraph style and click Edit;
Go to the GREP Style panel and in the GREP Style area, select “New GREP Style”;
1. Apply Style: Bold
To Text: S(?=\()add another “New GREP Style”
2. Apply Style: Bold
To Text: M(?=\()add another “New GREP Style”
3. Apply Style: Bold
To Text: M(?=\()add another “New GREP Style”
4. Apply Style: Bold
To Text: L(?=\()add another “New GREP Style”
5. Apply Style: Bold
To Text: X(?=\()add another “New GREP Style”
6. Apply Style: Bold
To Text: XL(?=\()You can edit the characters “S,M,L,X,XL” to meet your text.
ParticipantThat’s a quick workout. Thanks’ David.
Izaac, I hope have a handy solution now.
How easy it would be if InDesign has the capability of auto-inserting space character through styles, then you don’t have to type a text to get the bullet or number-list. Just apply the style and you are done.
For example, if a person has to print multiple pages with thousands of cell with dollar sign in each cell, then he just have to apply the style to get the dollar signs.
ParticipantCheck if there is any nested style associated with the paragraph style, making the character disappear at the beginning. To study in more depth, please try to send data, before and after.
ParticipantWill this help? Try your hands with the help of the url given below and let us know too

Participant@David, Any other information related to ACE exam. like, study material, sample exams, exam simulators etc.
ParticipantI am not sure about such script, might be someone could help you in this regard.
The reason you are getting only text without styles is due to the preference settings (ctrl K). Just change the settings under Clipboard Handling panel and click the radio button in front of “All Information (index Markers, Swatches, Styles, etc.)”
Secondly, click the “Show Import Options” while placing text (ctrl D) from a Word file instead of copy/paste. You can deal with the Styles options here itself and can apply the styles even before the text import.

It seems to be a bug in InDesign and hope it might have improved in CC though I haven’t checked. Might be David Blatner could help you in this regard.
@David, please see if you can throw some light here.
April 15, 2014 at 8:57 am in reply to: Numbers don't restart after ANY previous level—only the immediately previous one #67987Participant1. — list1
1.1 — list2
1.2 — list2
1.3 — list2
2. — list1
2.3.1 — list3
2.1 — list2In your case, I think you are applying the styles as mentioned above. You are applying List3 style just after the List1 resulting in 2.3.1.
Level 3 needs a preceding list, in your case you have not applied List2, ideally it should be like this:
1. — list1
1.1 — list2
1.2 — list2
1.3 — list2
2. — list1
2.1 — list2
2.1.1 — list3However, when List looks backward, it didn’t find 2.1, hence it took the list2 from 1.3, therefore, 3 is carried forward resulting in 2.3.1.
If you apply List3 on second line i.e. 1.1, it will become 1.0.1 as there is no previous list before 1 and 2.3.1 will become 2.2.1
It shows that the order should be consistent i.e. 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 2, 2.1 2.1.1
OR
List1, List2, List2, List2, List1, List2, List3.You have to go section by section, you can’t skip a section in between.
Just go through the url once again:

ParticipantI updated script for the user interface to appear in English.
ParticipantSorry, I forgot, I have something with me.
The link for the script is given below, it will copy the GREP styles from one style to another in the same document.
ParticipantI got something for me as I’m on Mac, but since you are on PC, I think folks can help you out.
Copying all GREP-styles from one paragraph style to annother
It was done by Rick Gordon and is available here: https://github.com/rickgordon/Migrate-GREP-Styles
The script works fine on Mac, see if you can get a similar script for PC. I’m too interested in it for my personal PC.
ParticipantA good and working script. Thanks Jong for sharing it.
ParticipantHi Drew,
Yes, sure there is, and here is the one for you. Try this under GREP tab:
Find What:
\x{0027}n\x{0027}Change to:
\x{2018}n\x{2019}In case, this doesn’t work, just check the unicode value of the quote with the help of info or Glyphs panel and replace it accordingly. or else, I’m here to help, just give me some text from your document.
and more important, you do not have to turn-off the Typographer quotes. InDesign has the ability to input both quotes without turning off some feature.
If you press the single quote button while holding down the Alt(on pc), ctrl(on Mac), you’ll get the single straight/prime quotes used for denoting inches and feet.
similarly, to get the double straight/prime quotes press Alt+shift (on pc), ctrl+shift(on mac) while pressing the quote button.
ParticipantInserting a blank row with let’s say 1mm height in between two rows will create a gap effect. Please make a note that you’ll have to play a lot while creating a form using Tables.
One tricky way is to insert a single row table each time and using After space, you can control the spaces between the rows. It will be a table while viewing but in reality a bunch of tables (of only one row).
I have created hundreds of forms like this and mostly in MS Word format. I bet MS Word tables have no comparison. The user get a very flexible feel while working with Tables in MS Word. InDesign and other applications like this lacks that flexiblility, hence user has to compromise with one or the other way. So my trick is to create separate single row, adjust it accordingly, split it into multiple columns to create fields, and so on…
