Here's the ExtendScript I linked to earlier. The DeleteUnused...Fmt
functions would seem to make it pretty simple. You could maybe create

Hi John
If your system's too pinned down to install a plug-in, AND you know the names of all those styles you want rid of, AND you've got a decent text editor, then you can do this on bulk MIF files.

Hi Richard,
Thanks for the recommendation. FWIW, duplicating this script in ExtendScript
would be a large undertaking. The FrameScript version is over 1700 lines and
