Hello:

I'm a somewhat experienced Applescripter, enough to figure out how to put
together the few scripts I've made, but I've encountered a problem which
seems to be simple but that I just can't figure out.

Here's what I'm trying to do -- I'm opening a graphics file (whether
Photoshop or jpeg) in GraphicConverter. I'm saving the file in a different
location as a jpeg. If the photo doesn't have ".jpg" at the end, then I'm
trying to save it with that suffix. That's it.

But I'm having serious difficulties getting the file to save in a new
location. GraphicConverter seems to want me to provide an alias if I'm
trying to save the file, but since the new file doesn't exist, I can't give
it an alias object.

GraphicConverter doesn't require that the target be an alias, just feed it a complete path to the desired file name:

tell application "GraphicConverter"
save window 1 in "Macintosh HD:Desktop Folder:Test File" as JPEG with wwwready
end tell
