Sorry, I forgot one other critical thing likely to be different on your system. In my case pdf's are stored within subfolders using the first character of the cite key. I.e. the pdf repository folder looks similar to this:
ls -1R */*.pdf A/AA00Users.pdf A/AA01Users.pdf A/Aa001.pdf A/Aa002.pdf ... B/Ba023.pdf B/Ba025.pdf B/Ba033.pdf B/Ba061.pdf B/Ba079.pdf ... C/Ca002.pdf C/Ca003.pdf C/Ca017.pdf C/Ca01ct.pdf C/Ca025.pdf C/Ca029.pdf C/Ca032.pdf C/Ca034.pdf C/Ca035.pdf ... ... Z/Za008.pdf Z/Za010.pdf Z/Za012.pdf ... Thus you need most likely also to adjust following statement according to your case. If your pdf repository is flat, simply change set workDir to thePDFRepositoryFolder & dirSep & theSubFolderCh & dirSep to set workDir to thePDFRepositoryFolder & dirSep This should get you going. Sorry, can't spend more time on this helping you.

I already downloaded 'Fix PDF and URL Links' and tried but did not work. It should be due to my lack of knowledge on how the script works. In preference, I added script hook for the import publication. Then I open the Jabref bib file from File > Open. This asks some conversion criteria and I leave them untouched to proceed to read. This does not seem to change the file link correctly. Thanks for help.

I have ~2000 references in my bib file with PDF links. It seems that Bibdesk does not convert the PDF links generated by Jabref when it imports files. I've searched archives and googled for the last couple of days. I found some related discussions but so far I have not been able to find any actual applescripts or tools to do this. Thanks for help.
