Title: RE: Quark to InDesign
Quark 6 will not save down to Quark 4 files. You need to do that
in Quark 5. (That's why "they" told you that it was a
two-step operation.) You'll need to address the two applications
uniquely or launch Quark 5 after quitting Quark 6. If they're really
just text files, you may do better to just extract the content rather
than try and do a full-on conversion to InDesign. At least try a few
conversions before committing your resources to this, because you may
not be satisfied anyway.

Help
I have to write a script to get several
thousand text files from Quark 6 to InDesign 2.0.2
They tell me I have to open the files in
Q6,
Save to Q5 format.
Then open the file in Quark 5 and save to
Quark 4 format.
Then import into InDesign.
I have a script that does the 6 to 5
conversion.
the save line is as follows:
tell
application
"QuarkXPress"
save
document 1 version vers 50 with
replacing
end
tell
The Q6 dictionary shows that I can choose
vers 40 but it does not work.
Can someone shed a ray of sunshine on
this?
Thanks
Oakley
