How about do a global search/replace for 97% char width. To do that, go to the Find/Change dialog box (Cmd or Ctrl F) and click the icon to the right of the Find Format field. A dialog box will open letting you select the format attributes you are looking for. From the Advanced Character Formats tab, Put 97% in the Horizontal Scale field. Then in the Change Format, make that same attribute 100%. If you want to also remove the tracking, that's on the Basic Character Formats tab. Then click Change All.

Save a copy first just in case.
