end tell
tell application "Skim"In order for the last AppleScript to work properly, you need to have the DEVONthink URL in the fourth Skim note of the first page of the PDF in the following form:
set the xDEVONthinkLink to (get text for note 4 of document 1) as string
set customUUID to text 21 thru -8 of xDEVONthinkLink as string
end tell
tell application "DEVONthink Pro"
activate
tell database "MySources"
set myPDF to get record with uuid customUUID
open tab for record myPDF
tell application "System Events"
tell process "DEVONthink Pro" to click menu item "Reveal" of menu 1 of menu bar item "Data" of menu bar 1
end tell
end tell
close document window 1
end tell
x-devonthink-item://648847AF-4714-4328-916C-6169A6389124?page=0
