Hi:

Can anyone help me on this? I'm automating printing jobs to PostScript files and I'm having trouble.

print active document

gives me the print screen with the "Save" button (since I'm specifying PostScript file as the printer in the print preferences).

print active document without dialog

gives me the same screen.

If I've created a path and saved it as a variable (e.g., set pathFile to "Macintosh HD:Users:Jon:Desktop:test.ps") how do I get the script to save to that file name without dialogs being generated?

Thanks.
