This script finds all the images in a document below the user-specified DPI threshold. The result is presented in a dropdown box and when OK is clicked, the script displays the page and selects the low-resolution image.
SUPPORT INFORMATION
Copy the script into Presets/Scripts folder, then it can be run from the InDesign Script panel.

I agree with zero.27, this'd be much more useful if I could export it as a text file (which is what I currently do, using preflight and a lot of find+replace) and reference it in another window as I go through the Indesign file and edit the photos.
or if the list could remain open and I could select/browse the document and work on the document while the script results window was open, that'd be great too. Some way to access the results while working in the Indesign file.

Works fine in InDesign CS4
By deleting exactly this part (without quotation marks) "currImage.actualPpi[0] < dpiValue || currImage.actualPpi[1] < dpiValue ||" you can make it search only for effective dpi below the threshold.
It's great. Thanks Matevz.

Does not allow to filter on effective dpi which is more important than actual dpi.
Should produce a printable list. If you happen to have dozens of files listed it's a nightmare.

I know I can use it, but not too often. there is so much still to learn!
