Hi all,
sorry if you find this off topic but I'm looking for this book:
"AppleScripting QuarkXPress" by Shirley Hopkins
I now it's available at amazon.com but I still do not trust in e-Commerce.
Some relatives of mine are travelling to MD (near Washington DC), with
possible (sure) visits to NYC.
Do you know any library in the area were I can send them to pick a copy for
me? Any clue?
FYI, I started trying to learn AppleScript a week ago because I spent almost
two weeks making a catalogue in QXP that has only text lines (music album
reference, with ICPN, artist name, album name and so on) and an image box
with a code bar (EPSF) for each line.
I think that if my client supplies an Excel sheet with the data I should be
able to export it with XTags to XPress and having it make the layout alone
(err... with scripting aid off course). At the same time I bought a code bar
maker program (still not given a try) that supports AppleScript so the whole
thing could be fully automatic.
That's what I want the book for.
Can you also tell me were I can find some similar workflow examples to LEARN
from (since I'm not intending anyone to make the scripting for me)?
I contacted Apple here in Spain for training and next AppleScript course is
supposed to happen in fall (autumn). But next step, learning the kind of
workflow between applications that I want, is not possible since (they say)
there's not enough people interested on it so there's no base for a course.
No need to say, any advise will be very welcome.
TIA
