Is it possible to ask laserwriter or another Chooser (postscript)
printer driver to print to .pdf in any application? What I have in
mind is to have one or more records in FileMaker Pro to go straight
to a .pdf document, creating an FM script which will perform a
specified Applescript.
A .pdf Applescript would also be handy for other applications as it
is a bit fiddly printing (or exporting to) .pdfs generally.
So far as I remember, GhostScript is now scriptable and includes a
ps2pdf routine, so you would print to a ps file and then run the
script on that file. Works pretty well. I haven't looked recently
to see if GhostScript exists yet for OSJ10.
