Control Freehand Save Dialog

Scripting Forums AppleScript | Mac OS X
#1

First post to macscripter.net.

I am making a droplet for Freehand MX 11.0.2 and the AppleScript dictionary does not include the information to access the three options when doing a “Save as.” (Freehand Document, Freehand Template, Editable EPS). Of course, the editable EPS is the format I need my droplet to save to.

So I’m thinking someone can help me with the data type to use or point me in the right direction to scripting that save format.

Hello WholeGregg,

Try using GUI scripting either through System Events (if you are running Panther or have the beta version in Jaguar) or use the wonderful Extra Suites.

I hope this helps.
