Dan,
If you are just printing PDFs, I think it is fastest to do it from the
command line. I have had great success with using lpr. (type man lpr in a
terminal window for the instructions.)
In your script you can call it in this way:
set thisPath to "'" & (POSIX path of thisPDF) & "'"
set theShell to "lpr -P " & myPrinter & " " & thisPath
do shell script theShell
"ThisPDF" is an alias of the file that you are printing. "Myprinter" is the
name of the print queue you are using. Find the queue name by getting info
on the printer from the Print setup utility.
_______
I¹ve got a folder of 68 PDFs I want Acrobat to print. I created a repeat
script to count the files then print them one at a time.
