Scripting for Mac
Creating an sample script in AppleScript
AppleScript for the Mac OS is required to create and edit scripts for
Canvas for Mac OS.
To demonstrate Canvas scripting abilities for Mac, a sample script
entitled Downsample will be used. The sample script downsamples
all high resolution images in a designated source folder to a resolu-
tion of 72 ppi and then saves them to a defined destination folder. For
this example, two folders were created, Downsampling 1 and Down-
sampling 2. Downsampling 1 contains four images.
After you run the script, your folders should appear somewhat like
the following graphic.
Source folder with high
resolution images
Destination folder with
low resolution images
