Picture boxes (or any box) do not "belong"
to a page unless they are on the page in question. If you can reference
them outside of the "tell page ..." block, you can set their
contents.
tell application
"QuarkXPress"
tell document 1
-- this will
work for a box off the page
set image 1 of
picture box someIndex to someFilePath
tell page somePage
-- this will
only work for "Page Items" or items on a page
set image 1 of
picture box someIndex to someFilePath
end tell
end tell
end tell
This is not wrong behavior. You can't tell the page
to act on an item that is not part of it.
As an aside, I don't think they will print if they
are not on a page. Quark does not see them, even in bleed, unless they
actually have a portion on the page.
