When I use this script with the line setting the file extension to ".pdf" the Finder is resetting the .pdf extension to #0. Any thoughts on why please.

if AcrobatPreFlightFlag then

set tempName to name of document 1

if items -4 thru -1 of tempName as text is equal to ".pdf" then set tempName to items 1 thru -5 of tempName as text

set thePreFlightName to tempName & " _UEI Preflight" as text

set newPath to pathtodesktop & thePreFlightName & ".pdf" as text # this poops the file

save document 1 to file newPath

#my SavePreflightToeMail(newPath as text)

try

tell application "Finder" to move file newPath to trash

on error errmsg

display dialog errmsg

end try

end if
