I can't persuade Acrobat Distiller to select a JobOptions file. The
script below:

tell application "Acrobat Distiller 4.0"
open joboptions "ScreenOptimized PJ.joboptions"
end tell

Returns the error:
"Can't make some data into the expected type"

Do I need to alias the Settings files? Or?

You can't do that. What you _can_ do is specify a joboptions file when you
script the actual distillation, via the open command. And yes, it requires
an alias.


As I'm using the PDF Filter in Quark to initiate the distill there is no script involved. Do you have any further suggestions?
