Export to a PDF from Quark

Hi,
I'm new to the Applescript Emailing thing, but I have a scripting question
I'm hoping someone can help me with. I've been working on a script for the
last couple of days that will take a Quark document and make it into a JPEG
web graphic. It works, sort of. My problem is that I save it as an EPS and
sometimes Photoshop doesn't want to open(can't parse) an EPS. If I could
save it as a PDF to my hard drive and then run the Photoshop Action on it,
it would work much better.

Can Exporting from Quark to PDF be scripted? If not, can changing the
chooser to PDFwriter and then printing from Quark be scripted?

If all of the above don't work how about saving an EPS to my startup disk? I
can't seem to get that AppleScript down.

I'm using OS 9.1 and ScriptEditor 1.6

P.S. Here's the script in it's current condition. Right now I need to copy
the file to my startup disk first before running the AppleScript(through the
AppleScript Editor OSA Menu errors):
