I want to have a great holiday with my friends and boyfriend, so I need prepare a perfect plan. We are going to go to Co To island on for three days by motorbike and boat. Our trip will start from Hanoi to Van Don, about 250 kilometer by motobike, and from Van Don to Co To island by boat. After, we will hire reserve a room in a hotel and have lunch in a restaurant near the hotel with seafoods, such as shrimp, bib and so on. After lunch, we'll walk around places near there. On the second days, we'll go watch the sunrise in the morning after hiring a motorbike of people in on the island to visit natural places there, especially the lighthouse. Next, to we'll take a bath go bathe, sunbathe, and look at sunset together. On the third days, we'll go to market on in the morning to buy things, which is that are only available here.

I would like a script that applies a Paragraph style to a document in indesign. But I would like the script ot apply this same paragraph style ot each paragraph on the document. Is there a way to let the script know to stop at the end of the text window, so that it doesnt make the text of the paragraphs exceed the page's size?

I wrote this script so far, It applies the 'Paragraph Style' to one paragraph, but I want it to apply to all the text in the word box on one page at a time. I'm just not sure how to make it apply to more than one paragraph with the style. Basically 'Thursday' and 'November 11' happens only once at the top of the page, but the paragraph style stays the same for every paragraph. 'Thursday' and 'Novmeber 11' are generic, each week it be a different day of the week and date of the given month, is there a way for the script to differ between dates and days?

I'm relatively New to Paragraph Styles too, so I'm hoping that will be simplier to do than to make the script, and maybe that for another prt of the forum, But I' just like to get the script part done. The Paragraph Style would be called "Holiday".I made this Paragraph style after hours of trial and error, now I just need to know how to apply multiple styles to a page and have those styles be consistent with each page. I work for a Newspaper company, so this has to be accurate and work.

In any case, the parentTextFrames of a story (and a paragraph, and all other Text items) contain an array of all text frames that are spanned by the story. To check if you "drop out" of a certain frame, you could do something like this (untested):

myStory.paragraphs[0].appliedParagraphStyle = myHolidayStyle1; //Header 'day of the week' and Month and day.

myStory.paragraphs[1].appliedParagraphStyle = myHolidayStyle2; // Header 'month of the day'

myStory.paragraphs[2].appliedParagraphStyle = myHolidayStyle3; // Lead Paragraph 'default paragraph style'

//.appliedParagraphStyle = myDoc.paragraphStyles.item (myHolidayStyle1);

//mySel.paragraphs[-1].insertionPoints[-1].paragraphs[0];

I want this script to apply data that comes in from a export that is imported into Indesign. Basically Holidaystyle1 and 2 are already preset in data from a program called Linear. But the day, month, and date, will change. So I hoping there is a way from the script above to make 1 and 2 be at the top of the page, and style 3 be the paragraph style that leads in the text until the next articles are reach that start with like say 'Friday' and 'November 12', and the routine repeats itself again, until there is no-more data. (**edit** Is there a way to tell the script to put a line break or empty line between Style 0 and style 1?)

B. When any of the holidays enumerated in subsection A of this section falls on a Sunday, the following Monday shall be observed as a holiday, with the exception of the holidays enumerated in subsection A, paragraphs 1, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11 and 13 of this section.

France, however, ruled by Napoleon III, decided to use the opportunity to carve an empire out of Mexican territory. Late in 1861, a well-armed French fleet stormed Veracruz, landing a large force of troops and driving President Jurez and his government into retreat.

Traditions include military parades, recreations of the Battle of Puebla and other festive events. For many Mexicans, however, May 5 is a day like any other: It is not a federal holiday, so offices, banks and stores remain open.

Chicano activists raised awareness of the holiday in the 1960s, in part because they identified with the victory of Indigenous Mexicans (such as Jurez) over European invaders during the Battle of Puebla.

Today, revelers mark the occasion with parades, parties, mariachi music, Mexican folk dancing and traditional foods such as tacos and mole poblano. Some of the largest festivals are held in Los Angeles, Chicago and Houston.

The first great revolution of the 20th century began as a revolt against a dictator and ended in civil war, consuming hundreds of thousands of lives as Mexico struggled to live up to its ideals of land and liberty.

A blend of Mesoamerican ritual, European religion and Spanish culture, the holiday is celebrated each year from October 31-November 2. While October 31 is Halloween, November 1-2 is All Souls Day or the Day of the Dead. According to tradition, the gates of heaven are opened at midnight on October 31 and the spirits of children can rejoin their families for 24 hours. The spirits of adults can do the same on November 2.

The roots of the Day of the Dead, celebrated in contemporary Mexico and among those of Mexican heritage in the United States and around the world, go back some 3,000 years, to the rituals honoring the dead in pre-Columbian Mesoamerica. The Aztecs and other Nahua people living in what is now central Mexico held a cyclical view of the universe, and saw death as an integral, ever-present part of life.

In ancient Europe, pagan celebrations of the dead also took place in the fall, and consisted of bonfires, dancing and feasting. Some of these customs survived even after the rise of the Roman Catholic Church, which (unofficially) adopted them into their celebrations of two Catholic holidays, All Saints Day and All Souls Day, celebrated on the first two days of November.

The most prominent symbols related to the Day of the Dead are calacas (skeletons) and calaveras (skulls). In the early 20th century, the printer and cartoonist Jos Guadalupe Posada incorporated skeletal figures in his art mocking politicians and commenting on revolutionary politics. His most well-known work, La Calavera Catrina, or Elegant Skull, features a female skeleton adorned with makeup and dressed in fancy clothes. The 1910 etching was intended as a statement about Mexicans adopting European fashions over their own heritage and traditions. La Calavera Catrina was then adopted as one of the most recognizable Day of the Dead icons.

In recent years, the tradition has developed even more due to its visibility in pop culture and its growing popularity in the United States, where more than 36 million people identified as being of partial or full Mexican ancestry as of 2016, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
