I have been searching for the last couple of days and I am looking to get help creating a script. I have a document that I setup that adds pages when the text frame fills up when copying content. The document only has the one text frame on each page created from the Master page.
What I would like to do is:
1) Select the text frame on the first page.
2) Duplicate it.
3) Move the duplicated text frame with content directly below the previous one. This would make it 2-up on the page.
4) Move to the next text frame on the next page.
5) Repeat process
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
