GREP Batch Rename Relink 1.6

GREP Batch Rename Relink 1.6

The Powerhouse Renaming/Relinking Automation Tool

This advanced script streamlines how you manage linked graphics in InDesign by offering a live GREP-powered interface for batch renaming. Using regular expressions, you can search for and replace complex patterns in file names across multiple links at once. The script handles all file system operations behind the scenes, automatically preserving link integrity throughout your document.

It intelligently groups repeated instances of the same file, detects naming conflicts, and provides flexible options to resolve duplicates—either by skipping them or appending unique suffixes. Supporting all major graphic formats and featuring detailed logging, this tool enables safe, efficient, and fully reversible file operations—saving you hours of manual work.

Also included the script Relink Missing Files 1.1 so you can easily relink renamed files previously placed in other documents using a simple .txt file.

Also included two bonus scripts to rename and relink single selected graphic.
