SetStoryComposer: Quickly Assign A Composer to All of Your Document's Stories

This InDesign script allows the user to set all stories in a given document to use the selected composer. This can be quite useful for translating and typesetting documents using complex non-Latin scripts (Indic/Devengari, etc.)
