Script to update legacy text (action does not work)

So here is my scenario: I did select all and update legacy text but I have some issues with some type paths that are being clipped. OK, easy enough let me unselect those layers and run "update selected legacy text" GREAT WORKS!

 

Here is my delima I have 400 .eps files that I am doing this on. The layer names are always the same so I was wondering if there was an easy way to do this on an action. Does an action know that I am unselecting a layer after selecting all? Why doesn't it record when I do

Type>Legacy Text>Convert Selected Text?

 

• Select all

• Unselect two layers (layers name consistent)

• Type>Legacy Text>Convert Selected Text

 

Is this easy in a script to pull off?
