- QuarkXpress Production-Workflow Applescript
Frequently in the graphics industry, custom solutions are needed to facilitate production workflow for repetitive tasks. For the Macintosh environment, Applescript provides a system wide inter-application communication coding environment whereby applications can communicate with each other and to the Macintosh OS as well using Applescript. This degree of flexibility makes coding custom solutions feasible. In this case, I coded an Applescript solution to automate the process of creating EPS files with a specific naming convention from QuarkXpress in a batch file parent directory with an indeterminate and usually very large number of sub-hierarchical directories.
