Add Key Command
This Startup script adds a Key Equivalent to the Export EPS menu.

Batch EPS Export Scripts
Drop one or more folders that contain Creator 6 documents onto this applet to export each document as an EPS. This script handles long file/folder names in OSX, logs errors for missing graphics, fonts, and overflowed text (but doesn't require user intervention when these occur), and handles multiple spreads. This script does not include fonts in the EPS.

Change to Creator 6 Document
Use this script if you have a Creator file that's been stripped of its file type and/or its creator type. Do not put this script in the Script Menu Folder. Instead, put it on the desktop, and drag and drop the Creator file onto the script icon.

Color Replacer
This script changes one color to another color (e.g., red to blue) everywhere it occurs in a document. This script asks you to specify one color change; if you want to change another color, you must run the script again.

Document Sizes Manager
"This script lets you save and load your document sizes, and when loading you can choose to keep or replace the existing document sizes.

Takes a new width and resizes the selected element to that width, proportionally setting the height or takes a new height and resizes the selected element to that height, proportionally setting the width.

Reset Group Handles
If a group has been rotated or skewed, this script will reset the corner handles to square. It is useful for accurately lining up the group to a guide.

Resize to Page Bounds
Resizes any element (shape, graphic, etc.) to the closest boundary of the page while retaining the proportions of the graphic.

Select All With Element Style
Selects all elements on the same spread that have an element style matching the currently selected element.

Select None
Deselects elements currently selected in the frontmost document window. It is equivalent to choosing Edit > Select All and then pressing the Tab button. The primary purpose of this script is to help a beginner learn scripting.

Snap to Page Bounds
Resizes any element (shape, graphic, etc.) to the boundaries of the page without regard to proportion.

Toggle Path Openness
Changes the property of a Path Element that has only one contour (one section, no holes) to open or close, depending upon its current state. If the path is open when the script is run, it will close. If the path is closed when the script is run, it will open (only if it was open to begin with, though).

Update Graphic
Updates the selected placed graphic to the current version saved on disk.

V Text Selection
Run this script to double-slope a line of text (making a v or a ^). You may input slant values between -100 and 100. Zero is the base line number of the original text.

Convert Box to Line
Converts a rectangle into a line, for use when a thin filled rectangle is used as a line.
