[CS2][JS] How to scale all inline images to 70%

Question

To all the script gurus out there. can you help me make a script that scale all inline images to 70%? 'coz we got this client and they supply us with lots of eps files then the instruction would be to reduce the size of all images without touching the original ones. it takes time to process all of them in indesign manually.
help please.

Answer 1

Thank you so much guys. I'll try it later. Although I have one more problem. I got this LabelGraphics script from Indesignsecret.com modified for CS2 (originally from CS3), and it works fine for displayed figures but for inline it only labels the figures in first page.
here's the code:
//LabelGraphics.jsx
main();
//=============================================================\\
function main(){
if(app.documents.length != 0){
if(app.documents.item(0).allGraphics.length != 0){
myDisplayDialog();
else{
alert("Document contains no graphics.");
else{
alert("Please open a document and try again.");
//=============================================================\\
function myDisplayDialog(){
var myLabelWidth = 100;
var myStyleNames = myGetParagraphStyleNames();
var myDialog = app.dialogs.add({name:"Graphics name"});
with(myDialog.dialogColumns.add()){
//Label type
with(dialogRows.add()){
with(dialogColumns.add()){
staticTexts.add({staticLabel:"Label Type", minWidth:myLabelWidth});
with(dialogColumns.add()){
var myLabelTypeDropdown = dropdowns.add({stringList:["File name", "File path", "XMP description", "XMP author","Paste from clipboard"], selectedIndex:0});
with(dialogRows.add()){
with(dialogColumns.add()){
staticTexts.add({staticLabel:"Label Offset", minWidth:myLabelWidth});
with(dialogColumns.add()){
var myLabelOffsetField = measurementEditboxes.add({editValue:0});
//Style to apply
with(dialogRows.add()){
with(dialogColumns.add()){
staticTexts.add({staticLabel:"Label Style", minWidth:myLabelWidth});
with(dialogColumns.add()){
var myLabelStyleDropdown = dropdowns.add({stringList:myStyleNames, selectedIndex:4});
//=============================================================\\
var myResult = myDialog.show();
if(myResult == true){
var myLabelType = myLabelTypeDropdown.selectedIndex;
var myLabelHeight = 24; // A generic label height that will be adjusted later
myPasteFailure = false;
var myLabelOffset = myLabelOffsetField.editValue;
var myLabelStyle = myStyleNames[myLabelStyleDropdown.selectedIndex];
myDialog.destroy();
var myOldXUnits = app.documents.item(0).viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits;
var myOldYUnits = app.documents.item(0).viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits;
app.documents.item(0).viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.points;
app.documents.item(0).viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.points;
try{
myAddLabels(myLabelType, myLabelHeight, myLabelOffset, myLabelStyle);
catch(e){
alert("Unable to add lables. " + e);
try{
resizeOverset() ;
catch(e){
alert("Unable to correct overset text. " + e);
if (myPasteFailure == true){
alert("Unable to paste from clipboard.");
app.documents.item(0).viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = myOldXUnits;
app.documents.item(0).viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = myOldYUnits;
else{
myDialog.destroy();
//=============================================================\\
function myAddLabels(myLabelType, myLabelHeight, myLabelOffset, myLabelStyleName){
var myDocument = app.documents.item(0);
myStoriesArray = new Array();
if (app.selection.length == 0) // If nothing is selected apply caption to all graphics in the document
var myConfirmation = confirm("Add captions to all images in the document?", false, "LabelGraphics.jsx" );
if (myConfirmation == true)
var myGraphics = myDocument.allGraphics;
else
{ // If graphics are selected, just add captions to the selected items, as long as they are rectangles(image frames)
var myConfirmation = true;
var mySelections = app.selection;
myGraphics = new Array();
for(i = 0; i < mySelections.length; i++){
if(mySelections[i] == "[object Rectangle]"){ //Check to make sure selection only includes rectangles
myGraphics.push(mySelections[i].allGraphics[0]);
else{
//alert("Objects other than graphics were selected!");
//Nothing happens if you don't select at least one graphic
myLabelStyle = myDocument.paragraphStyles.item(myLabelStyleName);
