I need to convert automatic numbering to text. But the text lives in non-threaded text frames on over 300 pages. Is there a way – a script – to select all text at ones so that I could use the regular convert command? Or is there another way how to convert automatic numbering throughout the entire document?

That would be something like this:

app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().convertBulletsAndNumberingToText();

– but, please, first store a copy somewhere safe :)
