I get a -48 error whenever I attempt to save the ps file to any disk other
than the one the QuarkXPress application resides on. Otherwise I'm making ps
files OK, (except for setting the page height.)
Try saving your ps files to the QuarkXPress application's disk and see what
happens then. You might make to move the ps files to the destination
disk/workstation afterwards.
I have a script that creates QuarkXPress pages then makes PDFs of them
flawlessly. But if I try to do this with existing files, it trips up on the
page height part.
Incidently you'll need to use no other than QuarkXPress 4.11 (or 3.32)
because the scripting printing is properly busted in other versions...
