Hi,
This was working perfect 10.3.9
tell application "QuarkXPress 6"
activate
tell document 1
print page "1"
end tell
end tell
Completely broken in 10.4.2 and 10.4.3
The quark application quits on it.
who else has noticed this ?
Could somebody try the script above and confirm the bug ? (thank you)
Trying to use the UI does not work either. The button flashes but the action
is not performed.
(script down below)
(PS: Please do not suggest that I buy a quark extension, I wrote an
efficient script that has worked for years exactly to avoid this).
Thank you,
Gaetan Trudel
