What you came up with has a race condition in it and even generates the
temp file as a static filename...

If each individual call to pdfstudio opens a new tab/window/whatever in

It does. Much more elegant than what I came up with

But you have to close the first instance to get the second
to open, etc..
I have tried adding "&" to the end, but no syntax joy.
How to I get "-exec" to run and release, so "find" can go
on to the next instance?
Many thanks,
