Re: Use AppleScript to capture PDF screenshots in 10.4

Correct, you can't make them work in 10.3 simply by changing the "set format_" line. What's more, although I haven't tested in 10.4, I don't see how it could work as is there either, because in the versions of the scripts that are linked as of this posting, there is no space between the "-mit" and the "format_" variable, so the Applescript constructed shell command actually begins with "/usr/sbin/screencapture -mitpfd". Could that work?

But, more importantly for me, is there indeed a Panther defaults write command that results in changing the default screen capture format that corresponds to the Tiger compatible "defaults write com.apple.screencapture type pdf"?

I would certainly rather have that. Thanks.
