:oops: Hi,
I’m new to scripting OS X and I’m trying to automatically print PDFs through folder actions and Acrobat Professional 6. This is on an XServe running 10.3.5. The folder action works up to a point - but I get the print dialog window and this won’t close automatically - it needs someone to press the okay button or hit return. That done, the script continues as required.
Does anyone know how to get Acrobat to print automatically (just page 1 of the frontmost document) without any user interaction? Help!!
