Hello All-
I'm having an issue importing 1 bit images into QuarkXPress 5 via a
script. Specifically, when I use a script to bring a 1 bit tiff image
into a picture box Quark will bring the image in as grayscale.
Importing the image manually brings it in correctly as a 1 bit tiff as
expected.
tell picture box 1 of document 1 of application "QuarkXPress"
set image 1 to "path:to:bitmap.tif"
end tell
You can see on screen that the image was actually brought into the box
as a grayscale. Also if you get the properties of the image it reports
"Grayscale".
Now, bring the image in manually and it will pop in the box as a
bitmap. You can see it on screen and if you get the properties it
reports "Bitmap"
The image type property is r/o in Quark so I can't change it after
importing it.
Has anyone come across this? Am I just missing something when i import
the image?
Thanks
-John
