design pre-defined text boxes In adobe InDesign automatically

Hi.

I want a customized program to draw text boxes in adobe InDesign, based on PDF boxes.

the program should analize the pdf page, and measure the exact **size** and **position** of all text boxes on that page, then i want a program to Draw the same exact text boxes on an In-design file.

Basic functions and feateures:

1. upload pdf pages

2. for each page a page is created in in-design

3. draw text boxes same shape as the pdf has. (for i.e. see sample).

4. save file.

Each page has a little different shape text boxes.

---

The basic idea here is, that I want to re-print some old books.

I want the new page design to look the same way as old, just with different fonts.

so i need the text boxes to be same size and position as the on the old books.

and then i will replace (reflow) the proper texts, with the new font type.

the reason i need a program for this, is because it will be done for about 8,000 pages.

Thanks.

please reply
