5.0 out of 5 stars The best resource around, July 8, 2002
By A Customer
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Applescripting QuarkXPress, August 2, 2001
By J. Young (Kansas City, Missouri United States) - See all my reviews
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!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent if you have some AppleScript Knowledge, February 7, 2003
By Darren F. Trejo (Marshall, WI USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It doesn't get any better than this. I even learned some things about AppleScript that I didn't know before. Between the instructions and examples in the book and the scripts on the CD, you should be able to AppleScript anything that's scriptable in Quark with this book. I also like chicken and tacos, but not chicken tacos.

5.0 out of 5 stars applescript for quark
Hopkins' Applescripting QuarkXPress - It's really nice book including a lot of good examples. And I think there's no applescript book specially relating to quark. Read more
