A list with search words, a second list with replace words, some options and Indesign has got a supercharged S&R function with whole lists of words replaced by one click on a button.
To add words to the list, one can enter it in a "Search" textfield, the second part in the "replace" textfield. An add button adds it to the list.
But...
InDesign uses OpenType or double-byte fonts. These are unicode fonts.
When copying a word from a page in InDesign the clipboard contains te text with the special characters, but they are mixed (unicode and regular).
Problem:
- Paste in the entry field shows the correct text, moving it up to the list doesn't.
Solution:
- Loop through the characters in the entry field and set the unicode text or the regular text of the correct line in the list.
Question:
- Is there a better way to do this?
Problem 2:
I know what number the last line of the list is, so I put this number + 1 into a var. Each new line will be entered into line varName.
- When the last line of the list is a unicode text, the next line is entered on the same line, it seams that the linenumber in the var doesn't have any effect anymore.
I've tried to add a CR after that line, but no luck :-(
Anyone any solutions or remarks?
