Could you give an example of this? It's not the same with TextEdit as
there is another level of Unknowns. I think if I get that, I can use
your code. I'm not sure. Anyway, how can I work through the indices
like that?
I just tried a bit of this out of curiosity. It looks like it would
work but what a bother getting there. I installed the "ESP GhostScript"
(available from Apple's website) and print to PDF from that. It works
with CUPS <
http://localhost:631";>. What a breeze! And printing from the
command line directly to my PostScript printer is so easy compared to
scripting that window.
