Smart Title Case on Selection

Converts selected text to proper title case — articles, prepositions, and conjunctions stay lowercase unless they open the title. Works on a word, a headline, or a full frame.

InDesign's built-in Change Case just capitalises everything. This one knows that 'a', 'the', 'of', 'and', and similar words should stay lowercase.

Nuke Pasteboard Clutter

Removes every object sitting off the document pages in one click. Clears abandoned drafts, rejected alternates, and forgotten assets. Free with no account required.

The pasteboard collects months of accumulated junk. This script finds every item with a null parentPage and removes it. No dialog, no hunting through spreads.

Send All Text Frames to Text Layer

Finds or creates a "Text" layer and moves every text frame in the document there. Images and shapes stay exactly where they are.

Text scattered across multiple layers makes selective editing and print output painful. One run consolidates everything onto a single dedicated layer.
