Hi Tom,
Thank you for the suggestion, but I'm a little bit unclear as to what
precisely I should substitute for $1 ? For example I tried this on a PDF
bundle I created named "xyz.pdfd":
> /Applications/Skim.app/Contents/SharedSupport/skimpdf embed xyz.pdfd
the output of the above was:
> Cannot create PDF document
I then looked at this:
> /Applications/Skim.app/Contents/SharedSupport/skimpdf
yields:
Usage:
> skimpdf embed IN_PDF_FILE [OUT_PDF_FILE]
> skimpdf unembed IN_PDF_FILE [OUT_PDF_FILE]
> skimpdf merge IN_PDF_FILE_1 IN_PDF_FILE_2 [OUT_PDF_FILE]
> skimpdf extract IN_PDF_FILE [OUT_PDF_FILE] [-range START [LENGTH] | -page
> PAGE1... | -odd | -even]
> skimpdf help [VERB]
> skimpdf version
> SkimPDF command-line client, version 1.0

The input file is supposed to be a PDF not a PDF bundle. Most importantly,
we want to be able to read annotated notes from Skim on an OS other than Mac
OS X.
Thanks,
