In OSX scripting the print center, after I have opened the dictionary I don't seem to be able to find any way to set the dialog for the file name.

I would like to use a field in FileMaker Pro to set the file name of the Acrobat file I am generating.

My question is can the dialog for the filename prompt be accessed directly through AppleScript in OSX?

not in Print Center. Print Center only sees jobs once they
are queued, and at that point, it's already been determined
whether you are printing to a file, and if so what the
filename will be. i don't script FileMaker, but i would be
looking for control over this within FileMaker's dictionary.

Thank you for having me on and I'll take my answer off the air..

answering "on air" in case anyone has something to add.
