Hey Steen!

if you're serious about scripting QuarkXPress then you should try
to get an update to version 4.04.

I don't have version 4.03 handy, but the following works with 4.04:
---
tell application "QuarkXPress 4.04"
tell document 1
set view scale to fit page
end tell
save document 1 with include preview
close document 1
end tell
---
The command 'set view scale to fit page' serves to set the 'saved'
property to 'false'. Else you must get the file path and make a save as:
---
tell application "QuarkXPress 4.04"
set docPath to file path of document 1
save document 1 in docPath with include preview
close document 1
end tell
---

Both snippets work with the open front document. You say that you've got
a lot of documents to convert. So it would MUCH more convenient to save
the script as a droplet. Then you can drop a bunch of documents on the
icon of the script which will open and save them.

I'll make a droplet of the second version and send it with a private
message, explaining a thing or two about saving a script as a droplet.
