Running JavaScript-based Action Manager code from AppleScript

3.
From a VBScript you can then run the Emboss filter by saying (this example assumes
emboss.jsx is
found in C:\):
Set objApp = CreateObject("Photoshop.Application")
'Open the document in the script
filename = “C:\MyFile”
DIM docRef
SET docRef = objApp.Open(filename)
objApp.DoJavaScriptFile "C:\emboss.jsx", Array(75, 2, 89)
Running JavaScript-based Action Manager code from
AppleScript
There is no Action Manager functionality in AppleScript. However, you can execute JavaScript code and
files from AppleScript using the
do
javascript
command. For further information, please refer to
Introduction to Scripting
.
1.
Follow steps 1-4 in
“Using the Action Manager from JavaScript” on page 75
. You will end up with a file
(
emboss.jsx
) containing the following JavaScript code:
function emboss( angle, height, amount )
{
var id32 = charIDToTypeID( "Embs" );
var desc7 = new ActionDescriptor();
var id33 = charIDToTypeID( "Angl" );
desc7.putInteger( id33, angle );
var id34 = charIDToTypeID( "Hght" );
desc7.putInteger( id34, height );
var id35 = charIDToTypeID( "Amnt" );
desc7.putInteger( id35, amount );
executeAction( id32, desc7 );
}
2.
At the end of the file
emboss.jsx
, add the following line of JavaScript code, which executes the
emboss function with arguments passed to it from an external invocation. See
Introduction to Scripting
for more information about passing arguments from a AppleScript to a JavaScript.
// Call emboss with values provided in the "arguments" collection
emboss( arguments[0], arguments[1], arguments[2] );
3.
The following AppleScript code sample opens a document and runs the Emboss filter on it:
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS5"
set theFile to alias “Application:Documents:MyFile”
open theFile
do javascript (file <
path to Emboss.jsx
>) ¬
with arguments { 75,2,89 }
end tell
