I would settle for AS being able to see bookmarks, in the interim. Nice to
hear we have the clipboard now, thank you Jay Young. You could also bugger
around with creating files in Word or <shudder> adding/deleting temporary
text to the existing document but Print# is so much easier. All told, if
AppleScripting was a big part of the workflow then I wouldn't use Word at
all
