An AppleScript to export all Stickies as text
Authored by: eddy_k on Feb 07, '06 10:26:35AM

I didn't know it was possible to print all notes... And just open the pdf file in Textedit and I am all done!
Nice.

use the import menu.

One thing with this is, if your sticky is rich text of rtfd

then it will be stripped to plain text.

I was referring to how you import them back from pdf into stickies? When you do this, you lose some of the formatting. Plus it will not parse out the stickies.

It's definitely not the best way, but you can select the text from the PDF and copy/paste it into a new note. Haven't really had the need to import them yet...

Anyone else?
