Daniele-
I haven't been able to reproduce this error on my machine using
Leopard, which makes it tough to figure out what's going on. In your
steps above, you don't mention whether Pages asks you to save the file
after you start the script. There is a file save command near the top
of the script and you should get a file save dialog as soon as the
script starts running if you haven't saved the file previously.
I assume the error you're seeing in the situation above is the one you
mentioned previously, "Can't copy file for processing, sorry. Check
for a file name conflict." before anything else happens. If you do
save it, does the script produce a copy of the file in the same
folder? If so, does the file name of the copy have " copy" or "-bib"
appended (which one)?
Here are a couple of things to try:
1. Make sure you're using Pages 3 (iWork '08). I haven't tested this
script with previous versions of Pages.
2. If you're not saving the original Pages file before running the
script, do so and let me know what happens.
3. If you wish to use TeX cite commands as above, make sure you edit
the script to change the values of the properties tagStart and tagEnd
to "\\cite{" and "}", respectively. Make sure you have two backslashes
in tagStart as shown. I've confirmed that this works, though a problem
in this should not produce the error you mentioned previously.
