Hi all,

I have a simple script that help me in editing metadata, such as:

Applescript:

use AppleScript version "2.4" -- Yosemite (10.10) or later
use scripting additions
use framework "Foundation"

on run
   set therecord to {Title:"LDC tile44", Author:"LDC auth44", Subject:"LDC subj44"}
   set posixPath to "/Users/ldicroce/Desktop/10_1016@j_devcel_2021_12_007.pdf"
   my setDocumentAttributes:therecord forPDFAt:posixPath    
end run

on setDocumentAttributes:attributeRecord forPDFAt:posixPath
   set thePath to current application's NSString's stringWithString:posixPath
   set thePath to thePath's stringByExpandingTildeInPath()
   display dialog "OK1a"
   set theUrl to current application's NSURL's fileURLWithPath:thePath
   display dialog "OK1b"
   set thePDFDoc to current application's PDFDocument's alloc()'s initWithURL:theUrl
   display dialog "OK1c"
   set theDict to current application's NSDictionary's dictionaryWithDictionary:attributeRecord
   thePDFDoc's setDocumentAttributes:theDict
   return thePDFDoc's writeToFile:thePath
end setDocumentAttributes:forPDFAt:

And , it works perfectly.
But if I export the script as Applet, then it stops always at this line:

Applescript:

set thePDFDoc to current application's PDFDocument's alloc()'s initWithURL:theUrl

The applet has full access to the disk and folders ....
Any help to overcome this?
Thanks.

L.
