Hello AppleScripters!
I have been trying to deal with Acrobat's dictionary (still on
version 4) and while I can write a script to delete every Link in a
file, apparently I cannot even identify properties of a link using
AppleScript. Is version 5.0 ANY better??
I have even downloaded Eric Grant's Sigma's Coercions to try to pull
labels... no use.
I get the cryptic but apparently incontrovertible message
"Acrobat 4.0 got an error: tation performs a special action, not
available via AppleEvents."
(tation -- not even in the dictionary!)
Does anyone have any enlightenment/workarounds? Or even Plug-Ins?
Eventually I would like to automate the creation of PDAnnots (links).
George
