Use AppleScript actions at import
The Aperture community provides many AppleScript actions online to automate repetitive tasks
in Aperture. Additionally, you can create your own AppleScript actions to help automate your
workflow. You can use AppleScript actions from within Aperture immediately after an import
operation is complete.
For more information about AppleScript actions for use with Aperture, go to
http://www.apple.com/aperture/resources .
Important: All scripts must use the import event handler: on importActionForVersions
(input) .
Use AppleScript actions after import
1 Choose Actions from the Import Settings pop-up menu.
The Actions controls appear in the Import browser.

that appears.
The selected AppleScript action appears in the AppleScript field and is set to begin as soon as
the import operation is complete.
Note: The AppleScript action is applied only to the current import operation.
