Help with AppleScript as export Action

I tried to get an AppleScript script functioning as an Action to export in Lightroom 3 on OS X (10.5) without success.

The script (modified from one I found):

theObjects opened
Repeat with pourla in theObjects
shell script "/ opt/local/bin/mogrify - colorspace Gray" & "'" & (pourla AsString POSIX path) & "'" "'.
end repeat
Open side

I also tried as:

the shell script "/ opt/local/bin/mogrify - colorspace Gray"& (pourla AsString POSIX path).

I also tried things more simple, just to check if your script is called at all, and it doesn't seem to be.  Is there something special I need to do to use AppleScript as Action script to export?  It is in the right folder, and the name of the script appears as a selection in the drop-down menu when you use a custom post-processing option.

Any help or ideas appreciated!

I don't know why he wouldn't call a script as well as anything else, but it is an option on Mac to convert an AppleScript for an application. I guess that Lightroom is running an application as a post-process action (?). So one solution: write as a script, and then convert it to app - in the case where you can't find a better way...

  • Help with check boxes and actions

    Hello

    I just downloaded a trial version of LiveCycle Designer ES2 to see if this program works for the company that I work for. I need to create order forms for our products that our customers can fill out online and then send an e-mail to our sales department.

    I have imported our current order form to LiveCycle as a work of art and have inserted check boxes on the form. I want the form to automatically add the price of the option they checked off the retail price of total at the bottom of the form. Do you have any suggestions for me?

    Thank you!

    Hello Stefan,

    LC Designer is a very powerful application. While you can drag and drop objects on the form, for things really move you need to put a script in objects. This allows to control the way in which the form will be according to the users actions.

    To begin with there is help. If you have a look at the Action Builder in the Tools menu, you can select an object, then use the plain instructions accumulates the desired interaction. When you click OK, LC Designer will insert the necessary script.

    Therefore, there may be a steep learning curve, so it depends on how comfortable you are to roll up your sleeves and do some scripts.

    First, you must configure your workspace. This tends to be a personal preference, but here's a basic layout.

    It is a bit small, because of the scale, but you get the idea. At any time, you should be able to see the page, the hierarchy and the script editor. The object library and the range of the object and other palette must be close to hand as well.

    I am NOT inclined to import the form existing as work. This can limit the built-in options in LC Designer later. You can save your form existing in JPEG format and then in a new form to use the image object (value size full page) to display the image of the existing form.

    [ALTERNATIVE: you can also add fields to a PDF in Acrobat].

    Regarding scripting, the following JavaScript code should work in the click event of the checkbox (on the ground that the other field is named totalPrice).

    If (this.rawValue == 1)

    {

    totalPrice.rawValue = totalPrice.rawValue + 10;

    }

    on the other

    {

    totalPrice.rawValue = totalPrice.rawValue - 10;

    }

    This should take into account if the user changes of opinion and unticks the box.

    One thing to keep in mind about forms developed in the LC Designer, it is only the functions that will be available in the form (such as submit by e-mail in PDF format) will depend on whether the user has Acrobat or Reader, and also on whether the form has been active player (and how it has been activated). There is more information here: http://assure.ly/gYyYc2.

    I highly recommend JP Terry on LC Designer which is excellent - book "create dynamic with Adobe LiveCycle Designer Forms. It starts at the beginning and clearly sets out the key learning points. In the end, there are a few good examples that you can copy anywhere in your forms.

    We have solutions and blog posts on our website http://www.assuredynamics.com.

    There are also a range of online resources. You can find these resources useful:

    http://www.Adobe.com/go/learn_lc_scriptingBasics

    http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/Acrobat/PDFs/lc_migrating_acrobat_xmlform. PDF

    And a very convenient resource (and even if it's for version 6, it is still very good because of the way it is presented):http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/tips/CalcScripts.pdf

    The HelpFile in the LC designer can also help with the syntax and LC designer itself comes with some great models and examples.

    Finally, discover the network of the developer on http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/

    A book that does not deal with the scripts at all, but is very good on the formatting is also ""does this work " by Caroline Jarrett and Gerry Gaffney."

    The Adobe "PDF forms Bible" is OK, but focuses mainly on AcroForms.

    WindJack Solutions have a service on subscription for the scripts and solutions tohttp://www.pdfscripting.com. There a lot of AcroForm script which can be modified according to LC designer and a growing library of LC Designer solutions.

    I hope this helps,

  • Problems/help with animated GIF export

    I am an experienced user of Photoshop.  I've recently upgraded to CS5 (Windows) and have sought to produce animated GIFS.

    After reading some tutorials on the subject, I was able to:

    Create a PSD with some images of jpg in the form of layers;

    Move the layers in the animation window;

    The cycle time and optimize the animation window. and,

    The levels of peripheral dialogue Web backup to create the GIF file.

    Everything seems to be normal throughout this process.  However, the exported GIF file appears as a grey frame dark when I open it in Internet Explorer, or download it on my site of images.

    Does anyone else know this type of problem?

    Thank you

    On 5K bytes, I'd say you're full, nothing there.

    I can't help thinking that there could be problems with the settings that you selected in the dialog box peripheral & Web...  Could you capture your screen in this dialog box and show what you got there?

    You see a blank image like the one you posted above in the optimized tab?

    Hi ErikLee,

    Do you have MS Outlook installed on your computer?

    Windows mail import and export opportunities are limited to an Outlook .pst file or an Exchange Server mailbox. They are available only if MS Outlook is installed.
    If MS Outlook is not installed and you start an import or export action, the necessary support files are not present for Windows mail complete the operation. Then I suggest you to install Outlook temporarily and see if the problem is resolved.

    Follow the instructions below and check if the problem is resolved.

    1. reboot your computer, and then start Windows Mail.
    2. on the Tools menu, click Options.
    3. in the connection tab, click on edit to open the Internet Properties dialog box.
    4. in the tab programs, click on an application other than Windows mail e-mail in the e-mail list. Click on apply and then click OK.
    5. click OK again to close the Options dialog box.
    6. exit Windows mail and restart Windows mail.

    If this does not work, I suggest you upgrade to Windows Live Mail to import or export messages that may help you resolve the issue.

    To download Windows Live Mail, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
    http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

    For more information about Windows Live Mail, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address:

    @stu

    Not because of the number of pixels, in this photo and the chosen level of quality there is no possible way to create a JPG file to the size of file you requested. You must change your export settings.

    Show us a copy of the export dialog box, so we can see clearly the part file setting and the size of the Image.

    Also indicate the number of this image (width and height) pixels after cropping (as appropriate) and prior to export.

  • How to get help with conversion ROCK on the export of PDF?

    How can I get help with the quality of the PDF documents converted to word format export.

    Not likely to have, you're doing a "happy dance" but a scanned image is "the ear of the sow" and (Yes, I'll say).

    You can't have a scholarship of silk in one ear of the sow.

    Make you a picture of the text content. You get a result of OCR of all that is recognized. The character by character recognition accuracy is generally quite good. But - No image/photo file actually holds information on format, layout, fonts, etc. - it's just a picture. Acrobat OCR makes some assumptions about all this.

    -You have a bunch of each of the characters being exported to Word. Individual characters, not paragraphs, sentences no, no words, no values "white space", etc.

    So you get an export that is a "best estimate" of the less desirable source. Sometimes, it isn't so bad. Sometimes it's just awful. In all cases, you will need to do some cleanup of the exported content that landed in the Word file.

    The alternative is to transcribe the hardcopy to the Word file.
    In fact it can often be higher as a workflow rather than the scanning-ocr-export-cleanup shuffle

    .

    For really nice export "spot - we ', you must start with a PDF file from an application of creation (not a scanned image) which is a well-formed tag PDF (for example ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1).
    The purpose of the tagged PDF document is not only Accessible PDF is also how PDF supports actively the re-use of content (for example, export).

  • Please help with conditional actions showing the PlayBar

    I tried to set up a tip action that will not allow users to move forward until they have clicked on the 3 themes I want to see again them.  I assigned variables, follow the tutorials and do everything now.  Please help how I my Advanced actions set upwards... everything shows and hides all work so I have to assume that the assignment of variable works as well.  I used numbers initially and changed my value of the variable of "dude" just to make sure I was not missing something.

    Capture.PNGCapture2.PNGcapture3.PNG

    Here's the aciton condtional which is performed after the entry of the slide

    Capture4.PNG

    All logic seems in tact for me however I click on each of my boxes and all conditions must be true, but will not display game bar...

    Note: I also tried to show a next button and just show the things randomly with the same logic and it just will not work... What am I doing wrong?

    Something escapes me in your question: How do trigger you the conditional action? I suspect that he is never executed, but may be wrong of course.

    I created a small example to check: slide contains 3 buttons that trigger an action condtional with two decisions. The first decision is a simulated standard measure (condition 1 = 1 is always correct) assigns the value 1 to the variable corresponding user and displays a caption text, that was initially hidden. This is a screenshot of this first decision Stand for the first Bt_One action to be triggered by the first button:

    The second decision Check is the action of condtional real, very similar to yours. This will be done after the first decision:

    Create a duplicate of this action for the other two buttons, you only have to edit the first decision where the user variable needs to be changed.

    In my example, when you click the last button (regardless of the sequence) all the text captions should have been disclosed (I na not hide others, but you can do the same of course) and the second decision check will result in a positive response, so the playback bar appears immediately.

    How can I find the appropriate folder for download on a Page I manage?  Photos current pictures but when I download it is records, I can't open, review or post.  Thanks for any help.  I searched some tutorials help with photos, records and others, and I'm struggling with something that used to be so easy?  Thanks again!

    Hi Brandi Jo,.

    To access the photos you want to put on your page, you want to export from the Photos app. Select the photos, go to file > export > export x pictures. Enter the details of your export, and then click export. Choose a location and click the export again. Once exported, you can use all of the tools you want to use for downloading your page.

    Some sites such as Vimeo or Flickr, allow you to export directly from Photos. Select the photos you want, go to the file menu > share > select the service you are exporting to and complete the export.

    Good luck.

  • Need help with Windows Live Mail password

    Microsoft support told me that the only way to get help with my last password is by e-mail or forums and I recorded many positions and got no response.  I gave them all of my personal info to my email account and no response.

    I guess that you have a Live account Windows that you do not manage to connect to for various reasons.  Can clarify you what the case, and you can specify that you forgot your password or your user name?

    If you talk about this type of Forums (below) then they are very busy, but eventually you should get a response from Microsoft.  If the problem is that I'm guessing that this is so only Microsoft can fix the problem for you, posters not Microsoft, as we find in this Forum won't be able to do much for you other than to advice on a course of action to follow.

    If I remember the way Microsoft handle such problems with the "lockout", it's that they contact you by E-mail (an address that you can still access) and either reset your password or clear the problem after having proved to their satisfaction that you are the owner of the blocked account.  The process is a lot easier if you have (in the setup) provided them with another email address, or installed (and remember) secret an answer to the Question.

    Unfortunately, the whole process may fail and you may forever lose this account.  If that were the case, you should start now to try to get duplicates of important emails from the original sender.

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    See you soon.
