Hello All,
FrameScript 4 allows you to use Windows COM (or OLE) objects to control
other applications. For example, you can control Acrobat from FrameMaker via
FrameScript 4. If you use FrameScript for your FrameMaker to Acrobat
workflow, you can further process the Acrobat files using FrameScript.
One example is for TimeSavers users. Usually when you use TimeSavers or
Postscript text frames to create Acrobat objects via Distiller, the document
needs to be opened and saved after it is created. If you use FrameScript 4
to create the PDFs, you can open the PDF, save, and close it in the same
script.
If you have other ideas where this kind of programming would be useful,
please contact me offlist. Thank you very much.
