I'm not familiar with your application, but my first guess would be that
you need to identify your file as "file" or "alias":

save the current document in [optn-L]
*alias* "systemDisk:desktop folder:junk" as [optn-L]
JPEG {image quality:8, baseline optimized:false, saving paths:false}

or

save the current document in [optn-L]
*file* "systemDisk:desktop folder:junk" as [optn-L]
JPEG {image quality:8, baseline optimized:false, saving paths:false}
