Another QuarkXPress 6.1 BUG !!!


  • Subject: Another QuarkXPress 6.1 BUG !!!

It's incredible to see how many scripting bugs are present in QuarkXPress 6.1 (US or Passport version). Everyday I'm discovering one more...

Today I got crazy trying to understand why I could successfully run a script having a xpress document on my disk and could't run it having the document on a server...

Finally I got an answer! The property file path of a document returns the file path if the document stays on a local disk, but returns a temporary folder if the document was opened on a server! The value returned is something like:

--> file "HD:private:tmp:501:TemporaryItems:QXP-1131626700.qxp"

For this simple script...

tell application "QuarkXPress Passport"
get file path of document 1
end tell

The value returned is a perfect copy of the document...

I can't find any workaround to this situation. Anyone could?

Luca
