Christiaan pointed out that you may not be able to do it at all. I've never seen this problem. In any case, the script is to be run from the command line of Terminal: % skimembed your.pdf If you don't have the script in your path (or don't know what a path is :) put skimembed in your home directory. Start a Terminal (from Utilities). Make the file readable and executable by typing (after the '%'): % chmod u+rx skimembed Then type % ./skimembed without a 'return'. Then drag your PDF icon to the terminal and the location will be given to skimembed. You might need to type the 'return' key. It is likely that this is equivalent to what you are doing already. If skimembed is in your path and you are in the right directory, then the conversion is easier of course. Tom Thomas D.
