Hi,

I download a lot of archived newspaper articles in pdf form. These typically 
have little meta data except for download time, source, but none about the 
actual document. I tend to immediately rename these files with

date(yyyymmdd) Newspapername articlename pagenumber.pdf

I am hoping to find an AppleScript I could modify to automatically fill in 
these fields. I also hope to use hazel to start the process automatically. Then 
I will probably try to export the entry and import it into Zotero, which is my 
current citation manager software. I could be convinced to switch to bib desk 
but I already have a massive library, and also use Zothero extensively with 
Alfred for ease of finding documents.

Can anyone put me on the right path to what will probably be a long period of 
experimentation to try to get this workflow happening. My AppleScript knowledge 
is minimal, but I have some knowledge of other automation software for Mac such 
as Keyboard Maestro and Hazel.

Thanks,
Damian
