Does anyone in the group have an applescript that exports text out of creator docs? Looking for something a little better than manually doing it).

Willing to pay $ for it (within reason ;-)

thanks

You'll need to be more specific. The active text flow? The entire document? Each flows as a different file? You request could mean anything. Here's a simple one to export the active text flow to rtf:

tell application "MultiAd Creator Pro"
export text active text flow of document 1 in "Drive:Folder:FileName.rtf" as RTF styled text with replacing
end tell

Just play with it, or hit Record in a new script, export whatever text you want, then stop recording and look at the script to see what it did and modify it to work generically.
