"Save PDF to Group" does not work

DEVONthink Automation
#1

I brought up a URL-based PDF in a DEVON browser window, clicked the center of the window to select it, and ran the script. The AppleScript even log says:

tell application “DEVONthink Pro”
get URL of window 1
“http://www.umass.edu/philosophy/events/papers/Stang-Job%20Talk.pdf”
get selection of window 1
“DEVONthink Pro got an error: Can’t get selection of window 1.”

Great job! :imp:

…and great feedback :wink:

Just run the script in a main window using split/three-pane views, not in its own window. Or use this script: http://www.devon-technologies.com/scripts/userforum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=5882&p=26652

Thanks! The “not in its own window” restriction was totally unexpected. I wonder why it exists? :unamused:

I guess this statement answers the question :slight_smile:

“Please note that all these scripts have not been developed by DEVONtechnologies and come without any warranty. Download and use at your own risk!”

Anyway, you won’t have to use a script anymore as soon as v2 will be available.
