Thank you Shane! You're a god!

After I sent this plea for help, I set out to try this method, thinking that I would have to get all the names first. But the way I was going about it would have been a lot longer. The script works perfectly. I even added the Character Styles. The completed script will change all styles to Spanish and rename all paragraph and character styles to add "SP:". Then we'll just drop the point size in the body text styles and set off translating.

I will be registering for your Applescript Pro Sessions in June. I'm looking forward to all that I know I'll learn. See you there.

Thanks again,
David Wolfe

But as they are renamed, they are pushed

of the paragraph styles in the middle of the list with new names like
"SP: SP:" and "SP: SP: SP: SP:", and some others not being renamed
because the counter runs out. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Get all the names at once, and loop through them -- that'll be quicker, too.


     tell active document
     set oldNames to name of paragraph styles 3 thru -1
     repeat with i from 1 to (count of oldNames)
     set oldName to item i of oldNames
     set name of paragraph style oldName to ("SP:" & oldName )
