North Atlantic Publishing Systems’ CopyFlow Gold is an XTension for QuarkXPress 4–7 that automates importing and exporting text and pictures in layouts.
To use it, you manually or automatically label each text box you want to use and CopyFlow exports all the text into one text file, with or without formatting.

I am in retail catalog production and we are currently trying to create either a method of exporting images from our filemaker pro database or creating a link to image files on our server so that when we perform an XData import into a Quark template, the image will be imported onto the Quark page in much the same fashion that it imports all the formatted copy.
