Using AppleScript to automate FreeHand (Macintosh)
On the Macintosh, you can automate some FreeHand functions, including document manipulation, printing, report generation, and the Find and Replace function, using AppleScript and the AppleScript Script Editor (available from Apple).
To use AppleScript capabilities in FreeHand, you must have AppleScript and the AppleScript Script Editor installed on your computer. You write scripts using the AppleScript Script Editor and run them either from the Script Editor or by saving a script as an application and launching it from the desktop or Apple menu.
To get more information on AppleScript commands used by FreeHand:
1 |
Launch the AppleScript Script Editor. |
2 |
Follow the instructions in the AppleScript Read Me file to select FreeHand MX as the dictionary. The AppleScript Read Me is located in the ReadMes folder in the FreeHand MX application folder. |
For more information on the AppleScript Script Editor or other AppleScript commands, see the AppleScript Read Me or the AppleScript Handbook by Danny Goodman, Random House Electronic Publishing.
