Hi all,

I have written a short applescript that will take the name of the
frontmost pdf and copy it to clipboard and paste while I'm writing
(see below). When I run the script manually through the QS panes,
everything works, but a trigger will not work. Would any of you have a
suggestion as to how to fix this? Does it have something to do with
the 'command + v' part of the script? (I am currently running ß54 on
leopard)

Thanks in advance,

M

[applescript]
tell application "System Events"
        get name of window 1 of application process "Preview"
        set doc_name to result
end tell

set thePrefix to text 1 thru ((offset of "." in doc_name) - 1) of
doc_name

set the clipboard to "(" & thePrefix & ")"

tell application "System Events" to keystroke "v" using {command down}
[/applescript]
