InDesign Search-Replace Case Problem


  • Subject: InDesign Search-Replace Case Problem
  • From: Glenn Kowalski <email@hidden>

I'm having an odd case sensitivity issue when doing a seach-replace in InDesign. This is what I have.

set myFindString to "original"
set myChangeString to "changed"
tell application "InDesign CS"
tell document 1
tell selection
set myFoundItems to search for myFindString replacing with myChangeString without whole word and case sensitive
end tell
end tell
end tell



What happens first, is that the search is performed regardless of case. Next, if the word "Original" appears in the text with a capital "O" or if the entire word is capitalized, the result will be the word "Changed" with just a capital "C."


Any help would be appreciated.
