The Omni Group Forums - View Single Post - creating outline by extracting annotations from PDF

RobTrew

You can collect note texts indented under page numbers from the currently open Acrobat document with something like this.

Code:

set str to ""
tell application id "CARO"
	tell front document
		set str to name & return
		repeat with oPage in pages
			tell oPage
				set str to (str & tab & "Page " & (page number) as string) & return
				repeat with oNote in annotations
					tell oNote
						try
							set str to str & tab & tab & contents & return
						end try
					end tell
				end repeat
			end tell
		end repeat
	end tell
end tell
set the clipboard to str

If you then select a bullet (rather than text field) in OO3, and paste, it should preserve the simple page indentation.
