AppleScript to replace Export to PDF in Quark

Hello all – longtime lurker, first-time poster …

I’m working on an AppleScript Studio app that will replace the “Export to PDF” XTension from Quark 4.1, as we’re upgrading our users to Panther in the next month and we’re not happy with Quark’s built-in PDF generation.

So far we’ve got everythng we need, except … we’re having trouble finding out how to tell Quark in AppleScript to print a certain range of pages as PostScript files. We’ve got a field in the GUI that allows the user to punch in the pages he/she wants, and we know how to parse that value correctly (we think).

print (pages 1-3) PostScript file path_to_ps

– this seems to work just fine.

But we can’t find the syntax to tell Quark to print a range of pages.

Can anyone help?[/i]

bump? :lol:
