G5:bigfolder:2 color:myfolder:image1.eps -- I need to change "2
color" only
G5:bigfolder:CMYK images:myfolder:image1.eps
How do I replace out just "2color" to "CMYK color" is it possible to
search
and replace parts of a string or do I have to change my text item
delimiters
to ":" and then replace out item 3 with the new text?
In my test scenario it will be always item 3 but is there a way to
address
simply a specific section in an image path and replace that in a
sort of
search and replace.
Assuming you know the text you wish to replace, you can do it this way:
set foo to "G5:bigfolder:2 color:myfolder:image1.eps"
set text item delimiters to "2 color"
set foobar to text items of foo
set text item delimiters to "CYMK images"
set foo to foobar as text
