Thanks Luca, that is good but I now need to be able to format specicic
elements in a text block. For
example line 1 to be one font of one size and line 2 to be a different
font of a different size!
therefore (I think) I need to write a line then format that line, then
write the next and format the next
etc.
No! you can write all the text and then setting different properties
for different paragraph...
for example:
set story 1 to "Help" & return & "Me!"
set properties of paragraph 1 of story 1 to {size:18, font:"UB Frutiger
UltraBlack"}
set properties of paragraph 2 of story 1 to {size:24, font:"Helvetica"}
ciao
luca
Any ideas!?
thanks
Steve
Ciao
change your setting line in this way:
set text of story 1 to "Help"
set properties of text of story 1 to {size:18, font:"UB Frutiger
UltraBlack"}
also pay attention to name of the font (the one I wrote is good for
me...)

I thought I had got this sorted but Iit does not work!!
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong??!!
My code is:
tell application "QuarkXPress"
activate
tell document 1
set text of story 1 to "Help" with properties {size:18,
font:"Frutiger UltraBlack"}
end tell
end tell
