I want to format a text file, so when I import in Quark, I have certain words in different font type, in bold and different font size. I am having trouble with font size.

<f"Helvetica 55 Roman"><B>COMPUTER<$> (this changes the font type and makes it bold)works fine.

for font size I have tried
<f"Helvetica 55 Roman",20><B>COMPUTER<$>
<f"Helvetica 55 Roman"><B><20>COMPUTER<$><$>
<f"Helvetica 55 Roman"><B><20pts>COMPUTER<$><$>
<f"Helvetica 55 Roman"><B><20pts>COMPUTER<$>
I could not find any reference to this in any of the Applescript books I have.
If i'm not wrong, the code you are using in this formatted text is QuarkXPress Tagged Text... This is not applescript... so you can't find anything on this

If you would like to better understand xpress tagged text, just create the "style" you desire in qxp, then select the text and go to the:
File > Save Text and choose XPress Tags as format you would like to save...

open the file you produced and learn from there ;-))

better to this solution is:

1) creating a style for every need you have

2) format the text file using this form:
@nameofthestyle:my text here
@nameofthestyle2:my other text here

3) save it

4) importing the file automatically with applescript


Thanks in advance.
ciao
