| Hi all,
I'm so close yet so far with a script! I'm trying to enable a pdf for commenting in Acrobat Reader. Sadly, I have to use UI Scripting for this (Yes, I know its not nice, but I can't see any other way!) and I'm running into problems.
I can do everything I need *except* click the 'replace' button in the final dialog box (to overwrite the old file). Can anyone suggest how to do this? Here's my script as it stands at the moment.
--running Acrobat 8 Pro
tell application "Adobe Acrobat Professional" activate end tell
tell application "System Events" tell process "Adobe Acrobat Professional" tell menu bar 1 tell menu bar item "Comments" tell menu 1 click menu item "Enable for Commenting in Adobe Reader..." end tell end tell end tell
--a save as dialog pops up, so we click the save button
tell window "Save As" click button "Save" end tell
--works fine up to here, where I want to click the 'Replace" button to overwrite the old file
tell window 1 click button "Replace" end tell
end tell end tell
...any suggestions and help much appreciated!
Thanks Rob
