Hi Wayne,
All the scripting stuff seemed to works pretty good at least in early
betas of 7.0! I tested this specifically. As for the rest of
Quark..... That remains to be seen..
Another option is this... Handler that scripts the export PDF. You
can set in the PDF preferences in Quark to use a post processor
rather than create the pdf file with Jaws. This gives you a .ps file.
Its still only about as good as the export eps suggestion. Which has
a chunk of bugs relating to placed eps files.
---UI export ps... Be sure to set PDF preferences ONLY because Tiger
breaks print function in Quark
on UI_export()
tell application "QuarkXPress Passport"
activate
end tell
try
tell application "System Events"
tell process "QuarkXPress"
tell menu bar 1
tell menu bar item "File"
tell menu "File"
tell menu item "Export"
tell menu "Export"
click menu item "Layout as PDF..."
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
delay 1
tell window "Export as PDF"
keystroke (ASCII character 13)
end tell
end tell
end tell
on error
display dialog "UI not working"
end try
end UI_export

I'm wondering if someone has had this problem and knows how to
avoid it?
Quark's print command is broken when using Max OS Tiger.
The print command worked with Panther.
With Tiger you must use UI scripting
Try something like this:
