26.12. Example Project: Replacing Tags with Images

For our final example, let's get a bit more adventurous. The next script will involve several features: grep searching, placing images, and a special guest appearance from cousin Photoshop.

So this is the situation: you have a document containing a story or stories that have references to various items, and you want to insert anchored thumbnail pictures next to the references. The text has already been prepared, and where a graphic should appear is a tag containing the name of the relevant file in angled brackets. Figure 26-13 shows the InDesign document with the tagged text already inserted and awaiting the addition of the inline graphics.
