Hmmm... I'm using GraphicConverter V4.5. I just downloaded it from VersionTracker. For testing the script I just had a couple of TIFF files (created from the Preview app) that were on my desktop....ohwaitaminute... did you save the script as an Application? This is the only way for it to behave as a droplet. The Applescript icon will have the droplet "down-arrow" look. To edit the droplet, you'll have to drag the file to the ScriptEditor icon, or open it from the ScriptEditor. Anyway, I just dropped a couple of TIFF files onto the droplet and GraphicConverter does its thing. I actually see the files open and close as they process.

Good luck, I'll check back tomorrow morning.

I'm running this in MacOS X (10.2.3). I have the "JPEGs" folder open, but I still have to click on the open window to get the OS to refresh the contents view. The new JPG files should be there. :-/

weird. Yeah, I'm running 10.2.3 too, and I even did a search to see if the file was there and just not showing up, but it isn't anywhere. Could it be a pref somewhere in GraphicConverter or something I > wonder?

I really like the way that's scripted. Solved some problems with
existing folder causing an error, but I'm still not getting it to
create a jpeg file. Maybe I've got something set wrong with my setup?
I'm still very, very new at this. It seems like everything makes sense
in the script though. Hum.....
