Apple

Thanks for taking the time..

First error message I get at “set docRef to current document”

Expected “given”, “with”, “without”, other parameter name etc. but found identifier.

Second at Jpeg save options

Expected end of line etc, but found class name

I've run your script through CS and it works fine in this format:

-- changed the folder ref from your original

set xxyy to choose folder

tell application "Finder"

set flist to every file in folder xxyy

repeat with curfile in flist

---set file names

set nm to name of curfile as string

set dnm to curfile as string

-- note folder is changed to string

set newfile to (xxyy as string) & characters 1 thru 5 of nm & "cc.jpg"

if nm contains ".eps" then

-- change back to 7.0

tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS"

open file dnm

set docRef to current document

-- mate replaced with matte :-)

set myOptions to {class:JPEG save options, embed color profile:false, format options:standard, matte:background color matte}

-- you need to use copying otherwise you'll get a dialog box

save docRef in file newfile as JPEG with options myOptions with copying

-- close the doc

close docRef without saving

end tell

end if

end repeat

end tell

Should work OK now.
