Title: Quark crash with duplicate command
I am creating a script that can combine multiple Quark documents into a single Quark document. Works great as long as there aren't any linked text boxes between the pages.

The script works fine for most pages, but then it will crash with the duplicate command on about every 15th page or so. Is this a known issue with Quark? Is there a workaround?

This is the line of script that is causing the issue... PageCount = the page of the single page doc to duplicate; toDuplicateName is the name of the document being duplicated; and theName is the name of the combined document.

    tell application "QuarkXPress"
            duplicate page pageCount of document toDuplicateName to after page -1 of document theName
    end tell


I also can’t seem to use the duplicate command when there are linked text boxes. When I use the duplicate command in Quark to duplicate a page that contains linked text boxes, all of the links get broken incorrectly and the first part of the story flows into the text boxes. I’ve had to resort to a copy and paste and then moving the objects into the proper position on the page. Any ideas on how to workaround this issue?


Thanks,

Jeff
