I need to force Pages to save document in PDF format at the moment when you save it as a native Pages document. Normally user have to save it (as a native pages document) and then pick up "File -> Export ... -> PDF -> Next.. -> Export" to have pdf copy as well. I need to save these clicks (exporting to pdf) in term of faster workflow.
Download this ...
It is a virtual printer that creates a pdf document instead of a paper document. Using it requires a minimum of GUI scripting. You will need to change the printer, like this ...
-- set printer to CUPS-PDF tell application "Printer Setup Utility" set currentPrinter to (current printer) try set current printer to printer "CUPS-PDF" on error error "CUPS-PDF is not installed." end try end tell
-- restore Printer tell application "Printer Setup Utility" set current printer to currentPrinter quit end tell
