Find/replace styles in Pages 5
In Pages '09, one can find a style, under the "Advanced" menu in the find/replace pop-up. I use this to prepare talks, writing my own comments in a different style than what I'll print and hand out. Thus, I find the style and replace it (with nothing), and be left with simply the text for the handout. Is there a way to use find/replace in Pages 5 to search and find a particular style? I can't find it. Thank you!
That is an extremely useful feature. I just was using that on a document to hand last night, searching on an expression and applying a style to it, Saved me hours of work. Not something Apple seems to get these days.
Nobody apparently is supposed to work on Macs anymore, just fiddle.
Viking is being modest, the count is over 110 known missing features and countless bugs or things that simply don't work as they are supposed to.
Thankfully there is still Pages '09! For now. Which should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.

Find+replace in all Pages files in a folder
Hi,
A simple question (?). I have a long manuscript which is a folder comprising several dozens of Pages documents. I would like to execute a find+replace command across all the individual documents (without having to open them all one by one...) I guess Applescript will be the answer, but I am not experienced in its use... Would there be a pre-existing script available? I have searched, but with no success.
Many thanks.Ned is right... if the server can do it, let it. Also - I only wish Flash had file system access on servers... but if they did - how would Adobe sell Flash Media Server?
Google php filelist, php directory list, etc... you'll find lots of useful scripts. -
Can't find Character styles in Pages 5. After a couple of hours of work I am about ready to jump back to Microsoft Word, which annoys me beyond belief. At least Pages 09/11 had Character styles, AND hot keys for styles (even if they were limited to F-keys).
I use several different styles constantly through my documents, including character styles, and Pages 5 is letting me down BIG time.
OK, it's cool to have object styles - I can dig that.
BUT WHY ELIMINATE CHARACTER STYLES?
Sorry for shouting.
What a pity. Maybe the iWork software engineers don't actually work for Apple . . . yeah, that could be it. Or they don't actually USE the products they design.
I encourage everyone to make liberal use of Apple's feedback page, http://www.apple.com/feedback/I posted this in another thread before I discovered this one:
I just upgraded to Pages 5.
I opened a document that I'd been working on in the previous version of Pages. It has several styles, incuding a bulleted list style called "main bullet".
I attempted to apply that style to a section of text, and while it did indent the text properly, it did not add bullets. (Also, in the Style panel a bullet does not appear next to the "main bullet" style as it does in Pages 4. This was my first clue that something was wrong.)
So I went back in the text to a bulleted list that uses the "main bullet" style. I selected the text, then went to the Style panel and chose "main bullet" > update style. This did not seem to help. The "main bullet" style still has no bullet next to it in the Style panel, and when I tried again to apply it to some text, the bullet doesn't appear.
I decided to try a different style, in this case "body". I went to a section that has the "main bullet" style, selected it, and applied "body". The indentation changed, but it did not remove the bullet as it was supposed to.
Is this a bug, or do styles work differently in Pages 5?
It appears that styles do not include formatting like bullets, which, if true, is a huge problem.
I was also upset to learn that once I've opened a document in Pages 5, I can no longer open it in Pages 4. So I'm essentially stuck with Pages 5 whether I like it or not.
Is anyone else noticing this? -
Why not there a "Find/replace in Grep style" inside the Para style?
Whenever I type a digit in my text, it should be colored red as per style. I do this by grep style inside the para style, but now I need to insert brackets before and after of the digit(s), i realize that there is no replace option in grep style in the para style. Why not it be there a "find/replace" instead "find" only as it now appears?
Ya, this is simple, finding a specific para style with digit and change them, when the book in first pass. But while in the correction pass of the same book, whenever we are inserting more text into the document, there are chances to be unaware of the digit style that, it should be surrounded by brackets, and it happened earlier so I have a thought of it. Again, while paginating a book having more than 350 - 600 pages, and 3 to 4 guys working in it, I think this may work.
Expecting your valuable comment on this.

RH8 - Any way to chage styles besides risky HTML find/replace
Hi - We have created a new .css with updated styles. All the TWs must now manually apply the new styles in every topic, a time consuming task. I know there's the option of doing a find/replace in all topics that will change the HTML, but RH doesn't respond well given its tendency to add tags in the name of being helpful. Attempted to a find/replace and it worked for a heading, but when I went on to a custom paragraph style, the result was not good. Ended up going back to my backup from that day.
Any suggestions/advice? Has Adobe provided anything in way of a tool that we can use?Use Find & Replace
Search: Specific Tag p
+ With Attribute style = [any value]
Action: Remove Attribute style

Error message: (translated from Dutch) "Cannot find corresponding style page for media query"
Error message: (translated from Dutch) "Cannot find corresponding style page for media query"(see image)
I cannot find what is wrong with this page: steun sesem
This message does not appear on the other pages of this site..
What do I wrong??
Thanks in advance!
MartienThere are two things that are probably causing this error.
Line 22 in your HTML looks like this:
</style><!--[if lt IE 9]>
You need to remove the closing style tag:
</style><!--[if lt IE 9]>
Also in sesem.css, there's a missing closing brace on line 486:
.footer {
font-size: 1.1em;
line-height: 1.4em;
color: #878787;
text-align: center;
} // <---- Missing closing brace
/* Desktop Layout: 769px to a max of 1232px. Inherits styles from: Mobile Layout and Tablet Layout. */
There are other problems in your CSS, but fixing those two items should put you back on the right track. -
Find Replace from Textfile with regex
Hello.
I'm wondering if anyone knows about an existing script that does a find/replace by list like the script "FindChangeByList.jsx" that comes with every InDesign installation.
This consists of tow parts, the script itself with the functionality and a simple textfile where you have simple one-liners capable of find/replace with regex.
the Textfile:
//FindChangeList.txt
//A support file for the InDesign CS4 JavaScript FindChangeByList.jsx
//This data file is tab-delimited, with carriage returns separating records.
//The format of each record in the file is:
//findType<tab>findProperties<tab>changeProperties<tab>findChangeOptions<tab>description
//Where:
//<tab> is a tab character
//findType is "text", "grep", or "glyph" (this sets the type of find/change operation to use).
//findProperties is a properties record (as text) of the find preferences.
//changeProperties is a properties record (as text) of the change preferences.
//findChangeOptions is a properties record (as text) of the find/change options.
//description is a description of the find/change operation
//Very simple example:
//text {findWhat:"--"} {changeTo:"^_"} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all double dashes and replace with an em dash.
//More complex example:
//text {findWhat:"^9^9.^9^9"} {appliedCharacterStyle:"price"} {include footnotes:true, include master pages:true, include hidden layers:true, whole word:false} Find $10.00 to $99.99 and apply the character style "price".
//All InDesign search metacharacters are allowed in the "findWhat" and "changeTo" properties for findTextPreferences and changeTextPreferences.
//If you enter backslashes in the findWhat property of the findGrepPreferences object, they must be "escaped"
//as shown in the example below:
//{findWhat:"\\s+"}
grep {findWhat:" +"} {changeTo:" "} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all double spaces and replace with single spaces.
grep {findWhat:"\r "} {changeTo:"\r"} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all returns followed by a space And replace with single returns.
grep {findWhat:" \r"} {changeTo:"\r"} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all returns followed by a space and replace with single returns.
grep {findWhat:"\t\t+"} {changeTo:"\t"} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all double tab characters and replace with single tab characters.
grep {findWhat:"\r\t"} {changeTo:"\r"} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all returns followed by a tab character and replace with single returns.
grep {findWhat:"\t\r"} {changeTo:"\r"} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all returns followed by a tab character and replace with single returns.
grep {findWhat:"\r\r+"} {changeTo:"\r"} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all double returns and replace with single returns.
text {findWhat:" - "} {changeTo:"^="} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all space-dash-space and replace with an en dash.
text {findWhat:"--"} {changeTo:"^_"} {includeFootnotes:true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false} Find all dash-dash and replace with an em dash.
The script:
//FindChangeByList.jsx

This is a very useful and easy to maintain script which even people who cant write scripts (but know how to use regex) can do complex search replace mass replacements.
Would love to find something like this for FrameMaker 12 (as i can't write scripts myself).

danielI have visited that site. The first item in the external link says: "You can also configure Firefox to automatically search for text when you type any characters outside of a text field. When typing in a text field these characters should show up in the text field and not trigger the Quick Find bar. "
What I am looking for is the exact opposite. Once my first search is entered in the text box, and the info comes back, I want to start typing the next symbol, and have it automatically show up in the text box, not the Quick Find box. That is how it was working up until a couple of months ago. -
CSS Questions :: Renaming Class Styles & Replacing Styles Globally
1) Renaming Class Styles
I have a large website that I redesigned over a year ago and now manage. I've been doing some housekeeping and attempting to rename some of the class styles I've applied to different parts of each page.
Problem: When I change the name of a class style, the style no longer is applied to the text. I've tried this in both GoLive CS2 (8.01) and Dreamweaver CS3. It's the same with both. They both allow you to change the name, but then the text loses the connection to the class style.
How can I rename the property (or style rule) without losing the connection to the text it is applied to? To go through and have to reassign the newly named styles to each section of each page would be an enormous undertaking.
2) Replacing Styles Globally
Is there an easy way to delete a style and chose a new one to take it's place globally?
Thank you for any help you can offer!
LindaHi Nate,
Thanks for the suggestions!
> In CS2, The CSS tab on the left side of the site window is handy for that. For instance, if you want to change very instance of a class to a different name, find it in the classes list and rename from there, which should update any pages using the class, and update its name in any external CSS files. Really useful for global changes, but definitely one of those things worth making a back-up of the whole site first.
For some reason when I do this it breaks the formatting style.
> If you want to change any references to one class to references to another, go to the same place and just change the class name to the other class name (so, you'd temporarily have 2 items in the list with the same name). Then, if you refresh view, you'll see they've really been consolidated into references to the same class. If that makes sense.
This does make sense.
I'm still experimenting. I may need to resume this in the morning. I'll let you know how it goes.

Script to find/replace regular to Italic based on search terms in .txt
Sorry for such a newbie post.
I have been reading on JS scripts for find/replace. I'm hoping develop a script or find one that is written that
1. Looks into a .txt or any searchable file format, containing search terms
2. Script will run on the entire Indesign document
3. For any matching search terms script replace the style from regular to Italic, or from Bold to Bold/Italic.Perfectly doable. Do you want to give it a go yourself?
A few first thoughts (things I'd probably solve myself while writing the script):
1. JS can read any file, but getting just the plain text out of an MS Word document is kind of ambitious -- even for me. Keep it simple: if your search text is nothing but a list of keywords or short phrases, write them out in a plain text file, one search item per line.
2. With that I presume you mean not on one single continuous story, but all over the file -- including loose text frames, master pages, and what-have-you-got. Thass' easy, you can set the target for a Find or Replace operation with pin-point accuracy.
3. .. This is the interesting part, actually.
(a) Do you want to change the text style? That will set an override "+" for the modified text. It would be safer (wiser, etc.) to change it using a character style. (For the script it doesn't matter which method you use, this is just for the Future You who is going to edit this file in 6 months.)
(b) If you do use a character style: what should happen if there already is one applied? Not bold or italic, but underline, for instance. Applying a new char style will override this one.
(c) The naive approach (which I probably would have taken first) is to first search for each of the search terms, go over the 'found' list and test for each single entry if it's in regular or bold, then take appropriate action.
A better approach -- without knowing anything else about this document -- could be to blindly use Replace to change ALL search terms in "Regular" to "Italic" and ALL search terms in "Bold" to "Bold Italic". It sure would be faster.
(d) Just like in the interface, you can search for a word and 'change' only the formatting -- no need to change the text as well. And just like in the interface, you need to specify "whole words" and/or "case sensitive". -
Find & Replace text in html files
This is my first real attempt at using Automator, and it has become increasingly frustrating for me. I love the idea of Automator, nice interface, and it appears to be so easy to use. But, I can't get it to actually DO anything and I don't understand why.
Here is my goal:
to batch process multiple html files to remove certain characters and words (or replace them with empty space).
I currently open these files in Pages and do 6 separate Find & Replace commands for each file before I continue with my other processing tasks. This is very tedious and I believe the computer should be able to find & replace multiple items at one time. (I have used other utilities to do batch renaming and trimming file names before.)
All I want to do is select a group of files (usually 25 at a time) and have Automator get rid of all the unwanted words and characters before I open each file for final processing in Pages. I found a set of Automator actions for TextEdit which includes a Find & Replace action, but I've wasted over an hour so far trying to get it to work.
When I run the workflow, it acts like it's doing something, but the files remain unchanged. I have tried using actions such as Read Text File, Get Contents of TextEdit Document, Set Contents of TextEdit Document, along with 6 instances of Find & Replace, but I cannot get it to work.
I'm at a point today where I cannot afford to mess around with this anymore. I have to do it the long way in Pages or else I'll never get it done, but I want to get these Automator workflows to work before I have to repeat this task. (I do this at least once a week right now.)
Any ideas or suggestions? I've tried reading in the help menus and support pages, but perhaps I'm just not understanding something here.Any ideas or suggestions?
You might be interested in using TextWrangler. It can perform batch find-and-replace changes across multiple selected files.
Good luck!

How do you select all paragraphs using the same style in Pages 5.2?
I'm trying to find how to select all paragraphs using the same style in Pages 5.2 without any success. I writing a book and I need to able to adjust all my paragraph styles globally. I see how upgrade my paragraph style when I do something new, but not how to revert back to the orginal template.
For example, in my custom template for my book I have 12 font for a review questions paragraph style. I changed the font size for all this paragraph style to 18 font. Now I want to change it back to size 12 font. But I have this paragraph style at the top and bottom of my document. How to I select all of my review questions style so I can make the font change to all at the same time?
I just upgrade to Pages 5.2 from Pages '09.
Thanks for the help,

Is there a way to Find & Replace within a selection?
I looked in the User Guide, but I didn't find any information on how to Find & Replace just within selected text. I can see how to do it for the entire document or do it one instance at a time. Is there a trick I'm missing, or is this a missing feature?
Hey Chuck,
I opened Pages and used its help menu and came up with this. It does not specifically mention anything about choosing just 1 paragraph or text box, but I hope it helps you none the less.

Redirect to "can't find the i-web page"/file name change
i published a website thru mobileme (http://www.hale-o-lani-aloha.com). when i type my website address in e-mails and check the link, i sometimes got directed to a page that said "we're sorry but we can't find the i-web page you've requested..." (yes, i've checked my typing!)
when i created my sitemap (with rage sitemap automator), i was told that the apostrophe in the file name for my first page was probably causing the problem. my file name was"hale o'lani aloha". i changed the file name for the webpage to "hale o lani aloha" and republished, redid the sitemap, etc. i now have 2 sets of files on my i-disk: one for Haleo'LaniAloha and the other for HaleoLaniAloha (i don't know why it's not "HaleoLani"). both sets of files have folders with the individual components of the site, css style sheet, java script and html files. the bad redirect site address has "/Site/HaleoLaniAloha" in the address. (when i checked the "oLani" html file on my i-disk, it opens an incomplete version of my first webpage. however, the "o'Lani" html file opens the fully functioning page). when the links work, the address has "/Site/Haleo_LaniAloha" (the new file name). so that long explanation brings me to my questions:
- did the apostrophe in my file name truly mess things up?
- since my fully functioning html file on i-disk has the apostrophe in it, should i rename my file with the apostrophe and delete the non-apostrophe files from my i-disk (even tho the working website has "oLani")?
thanks for any info that can help clear up this mess!You can find import now in the Library:

How do I 'Find & Replace' with control characters - paragraph, carriage return, tab
In Pages 4.3 (Pages '09) I could insert special characters into the Find & Replace fields. It was great. Excellent way to clean up & recover text from a pdf or html.
In Pages 5.2 that capability seems to be gone. When I turn on the special characters [Show Invisibles - shift-cmd-I], I can highlight said invisible, copy it, then paste it into the Find&Replace field. Nope. It goes in as a space, and the Find command only finds spaces. Not the invisible that I was looking for.
This was a major feature for me, folks. Much better than Word's approach. Now it is gone (I fear), and the Find & Replace is worse than Word's.
How can I recover/attain this feature?I have struggled to find this "feature" for a while.
It CANNOT be that Apple stripped out a core capability of even a basic text editor.
