Export all your InDesign stories as text

You can't request more than 20 challenges without solving them. Your previous challenges were flushed.

Text ExporterInDesign's built-in text exporter is great, as long as you have one long story placed in your text boxes. But if you want to export ALL the text in your document, it can be a bit time consuming. If for no other reason than you have to actually find all the text boxes.

Enter Text Exporter, a free InDesign plugin from Rorohiko.

Text Exporter allows you to export all the stories in your document, or the text from specific pages, Master Pages, Pasteboard or even stories with less than a specified amount of characters to RichText format, ID Tagged Text or Text Only formats.

Rorohiko also has several other free InDesign plug-ins available, so I urge you to check them all out. You may find something useful to fill a need.
