How would I save this PNG to the Desktop rather than the /tmp/ directory?
do shell script "screencapture -S ~/Desktop/screengrab.pdf ; sips -s format
png ~/Desktop/screengrab.pdf --out ~/Desktop/screengrab.png"
BTW, you can also use the TIFF format doing it this way (as Bill Briggs
suggests), but the output file can be large (my test PDF 444 KB : output
tiff 2.5 MB):
do shell script "screencapture -S ~/Desktop/screengrab.pdf ; sips -s format
tiff ~/Desktop/screengrab.pdf --out ~/Desktop/screengrab.tif"
Perhaps, someone on the list can suggest a CLI or AS method for LZW
compressing that output tiff?
