Hi,

Thanks for everyone involved in the previous discussion.
I've found that if I parse the style data from the text (after I coerce it from
Unicode as ask for it as a record), digits 17-20 of the string indicate the style
and language. 0003 is English and 4000 is Japanese.
anyway, I'm having another issue:

I'm trying to replicate the tagged text exported from InDesign.
I have no problem replicating ASCII-encoded text, I actually built the whole
system around that, but in order to include text in Japanese, the text has to
be Unicode-encoded.
The problem is that the tags in the text are legible, but after every character
there's another blank character with an ASCII value of 0 (zero).
How do I take the tagged text I collected and replicate that?
I figured that the extra character is the second empty byte, but how do I add
it myself?
Also the Japanese text appears as ASCII and is converted to Japanese at
import.

If I save the text as Unicode Text from AppleScript, it gets imported to
InDesign as is without being parsed.
Any idea?

Thanks.
