Walter, there has to be some type of pc data that is messing with
Quark. It makes Quark believe that there is still a PC font that must
be replaced in the mac by mac fonts. But I took care of this when the
text was first flowed into the Mac quark doc. But it keeps happening,
when I revisit the doc. It freezes my mac sometimes, destabilizing the
mac. I boot and run from repair utility CD's, rebuild the desktop, even
reformatted the HD. Nothing stops it from happening.

At 08:39p -0600 02/24/2004, John Robinson didst inscribe upon an
electronic papyrus:
I need an applescript. One that will remove PC programming data from
a Word document's text when flowed into a Macintosh Quark document.
We are plagued by "missing font" warnings when we flow Word text
into our Quark documents. Each time the warning shows, and not
necessarily at the beginning of the new document. Perhaps half way
through. Surprise!!!!
We can't replace the missing PC fonts. There is nothing to replace,
except the originally opened flow text. Except the message returns.
Each warning destabilizes OS922. Many freezes and system crashes.
For the time being we are stuck using OS9, don't ask.
Anyone ever heard of such a rip in script?
But what exactly would it be removing?
Is this styled text whose styles you need to preserve, or can it just
be saved as a plain text document (which would automatically solve
the problem)?
Are you looking for a WordBasic macro to redefine styles?
