It doesn't seem to work for Hebrew, though. It generates an error that no text is found. When I tried it with English it worked. Excellent script! It doesn’t seem to work for Hebrew, though.

I get Javascript errors 30477 and 21 respectively. I cannot get it to function in any fashion. Any thoughts? Using CS4, I run the script and try to replace selection option, and not replace option.

Then choose the script option and locate the script. Then choose a shortcurt of your preference… and enjoy! You can assign a shortcurt via the shortcuts option in the edition menu.

Thanks a lot of a lot! This is a great script! Nonetheless I had some trouble while indexing text patterns of this kind: [1], [2], [3], etc. Probably because of the [] caracters which the script didn't seemed to like very much… the return results list of the search was unrealistic. Anyway, I had to change the [number] pattern by [TAG+number+TAG] so that it work flawlessly. The script doesn't seem to handle well the [] signs or . So it's impossible to use them for tagging and making easier the crossreference process. Thanks again a lot! Wow! Thanks a lot of a lot! This is a great script!

But it's a lot of clicks to get to it when doing many cross-refs, and I can't figure out how to apply a keyboard shortcut to it. Any ideas? Thanks. Phil Hi Harbs,

I hadn't had time to run a few tests. I've tried exporting the file as you suggest and also tried deleting pages/links. Every time I call up the hyperlinks panel it crashes. The only thing that worked was when I stripped out all links… i.e. they were listed but broken. Perhaps I did something wrong, or maybe its the just the OPS/CS4 combination (CS2 seemed a lot more stable than CS4, never had any problems with that). Here is the relevant line from the crash report: Thread 0 Crashed: 0 PMString::Compare(short, PMString const&) const + 28 Perhaps that makes sense to you? Be great if you could pinpoint the problem, otherwise thanks for the effort. I'll muck around some more and let you know if I can figure it out. Regards Damian hi Harbs,

I've never encountered that. It sounds like there's some kind of corruption in the file. Did you try exporting to IDML? Hmm.

At least it did in the beginning when I had added a few cross-refs. However, after I added 70 or so to a doc, it won't let me access the hyperlinks panel without crashing. I keep getting bad access errors, something to do with loading the plug-in. I get these a lot with Acrobat, but never before with InDesign. Not sure whether my set-up (CS4/10.5.8/PowerPC). Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Regards Damian Hi Harbs,
