Hi,

I've adapted Jim's email attachment script very slightly to open PDF
archives in Adobe Reader 8. The following script works. It would be
great to be able to add a little "if filetpye is PDF (or archive)"
clause to it, to stop it sending anything but PDFs. Any scripters
know how to do this? I'd work it out but don't have hours to spend
today!

tell application "Yojimbo"
set _targets to (selected items of browser window 1)
set _files to (export _targets to (path to temporary items)) as list
end tell
tell application "Adobe Reader"
repeat with _f in _files
set _f to POSIX path of _f
open _files
end repeat
end tell
tell application "Finder"
move _files to trash
end tell
