Turn an ArtPro file into a PDF using Automator


I am attempting to use Automator to turn a folder of ArtPro (.ap) images into .pdf's, but I can't find any existing or downloadable actions to do anything other than open a .ap file with automator.

Does anyone know of an action I could download or a different way to automate the conversion of .ap to .pdf? Is it possible to do it using applescript instead?


Solution

  • It is only possible with ArtPro itself (manually) or Automation Engine's Action List. You can try recording your actions with "Watch-me-do" in Automator, but it's not a good idea. Apple Script will not help.

    The problem is that Esko has its own file format which no other software can understand.
