I had the same problem.
The best solution is to simply drag the icon of the PDF from Yojimbo
to either Acrobat or Preview and it will open in that application.
If you want a script to do this for the currently selected document:
==========================
on getSelectedItemsOfClass(itemClass)
set _resultItems to {}
tell application "Yojimbo"
set _selectedItems to get selected items of browser window 1
repeat with i from 1 to count of _selectedItems
if class of item i of _selectedItems is itemClass then
copy item i of _selectedItems to end of
_resultItems
end if
end repeat
end tell
return _resultItems
end getSelectedItemsOfClass
tell application "Yojimbo"
set _selectedPDFArchives to my getSelectedItemsOfClass(pdf archive
item)
set _files to (export _selectedPDFArchives to (path to temporary
items)) as list
end tell
tell application "Adobe Acrobat Professional" --Use you PDF viewer here
open _files
activate
end tell
tell application "Finder"
move _files to trash
end tell
==========================
Cheers,
Pat

Here's another request, I'm on a roll…
PDF's: maybe I've missed a feature, but it seems there is no way
currently to view the list of pages in a PDF document. Maybe the
Acrobat 8 way of displaying page thumbnails down the side of the
background area would work well - I'm not a developer so I have no
idea how easy/hard this is, but I'm frequently frustrated with long
PDF documents if I can't scan through a list of page thumbnails,
adding this feature would be a positive boon!
I'll pre-empt the inevitable; no, searching won't help - may of the
documents I'm referring to are very visual, such as design
guidelines documents, design concepts, etc. which are often image-
only or largely image based. A quick visual reference would really
improve the usefulness of PDF's in YJ, for this user at least.
Cheers,
T.
