More flaws in Acrobat 6.0.1 AppleScript....

The script...

tell application "Acrobat"
"Count: " & (count windows) & ". Window 1 exists? " & (exists
window 1) & " Name of window 1: " & (name of window 1) & "."
end tell


Produces the result:

"Count: 1. Window 1 exists? false Name of window 1: ."



In other words, Acrobat knows how many windows there are open ... but
when asked individually it states that they don't exist, and it
doesn't know their name!


Substitute "PDF window" for "window" (but note that the plural form,
"PDF windows" generates an error) and it works.

This used to work with Acrobat 5.
