Just a quick correction, it is textutil, and yes it converts from doc => rtf as well.



Thanks.

I wrote this script but it doesn't do the task.

As I'm not acustomed to Shell, I don't see what is wrong.


property o : "Macintosh HD:Users:yvankoenig:Desktop:tarifs assurance Bouchard.doc"


set o to o as alias
if name extension of (info for o) is "doc" then my translate(o)

on translate(original)
	tell application "Finder"
		set dossier to (container of original) as Unicode text
		set nom to name of original
		set nNom to text 1 thru -4 of nom & "rtf"
	end tell
	set pOrig to POSIX path of original
	set pdest to POSIX path of (dossier & nNom)
	set theScript to "textutil -convert rtf -output pdest pOrig"
	do shell script theScript
end translate


Thanks in advance.

Hello

I made a few changes but it doesn't work:

property o : "Macintosh HD:Users:yvankoenig:Desktop:tarifs assurance Bouchard.doc"

set o to o as alias
if name extension of (info for o) is "doc" then my translate(o)

on translate(original)
tell application "Finder"
set dossier to (container of original) as Unicode text
set nom to name of original
set nNom to text 1 thru -4 of nom & "rtf"
end tell
set pOrig to POSIX path of original
set pdest to POSIX path of (dossier & nNom)
set theScript to "textutil -convert rtf -output " & pdest & " " & pOrig
do shell script theScript
end translate
