FrameMaker Automation

[AntoinS -at- phbrink -dot- com]

Hi,
 
We are looking at automating some of the localisation processes we use for
FrameMaker documents, and need someone to write a macro to do the
following to the MIF files:

·	Convert Variables to text (EXCLUDING HEADERS & FOOTERS)
·	remove double spaces
·	remove double full stops
·	remove double comma?s
·	remove space before comma?s
·	remove space before full stops
·	remove \r (soft returns)
·	remove \p# (space before paragraphs)
·	Check ALL x refs and ensure there are no double spaces, space
before/after brackets, etc in the code
·	Where necessary use non-breaking hyphens \+. Use Find/Change to insert
these.
·	Check for missing/correct fonts and/or graphics
·	Callouts & Decals turned on
·	Turn off HYPHENATION (Paragraph Designer global update all paragraph and
catalog entries)
·	Make all CALLOUTS visible & lengthen for possible language expansion
·	Replace straight QUOTE MARKS & APOSTROPHES with curly ones (\shift2)
·	Save at 100% (size) & turn off All graphics, borders & text symbols

Does anyone know if it is possible to do this a) at all b)in some Macro
form. If so does anyone know a freelancer developer who might be able to
do this?

All help appreciated
