The best resource around,
By A Customer
This review is from: AppleScripting QuarkXPress (Spiral-bound)
If you want to script quark then this is THE book to own. I hadn't done any scripting before and the literature from quark is pretty useless for beginners. This book has taken me in wonderfully easy and well explained steps, from a beginner to an extremely proficient user. For quark it is invaluable, and by working through it also helps you understand how applescript structures itself,making it much easier to learn how to script other applications. To put it in a nutshell, this book was for me what the discovery of making fire was to the cavemen.

Applescripting QuarkXPress,
By J. Young (Kansas City, Missouri United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: AppleScripting QuarkXPress (Spiral-bound)
I found this book to be an excellent source to Applescript in QuarkXPress. It gives tons of examples along with a CD. Without this book I wouldn't have been able to figure out the sentence structures in Script Editor for the goals I wanted to accomplish. Thanks Shirley!

Most helpful book for quark scripting,
This review is from: AppleScripting QuarkXPress (Spiral-bound)
It's a very helpful book with a CD full of script example in it.
Even comes with PDF version of the book. I fix my script right after checking for several pages in it. Mostly also works on QuarkXpress 8.
