Automator is a robust, very powerful, automation tool which delivers a professional solution for working with Adobe Acrobat's Portable Document Format (PDF) documents to your desktop. It is a unique automation macro builder tool designed to be used in conjunction with the following Mapsoft publishing tools, which have themselves been designed to assist publishers and writers in working with PDF files.



AcroBatch
A very powerful feature which makes the majority of the batching commands supported within Acrobat (via the Edit Batch Sequence facility) available from within the Automator environment. For example, you could automate JavaScript operations from within Automator.
BookMarker
Creates a hierarchical set of bookmarks automatically. Bookmarks up to any nested level can be created, based on the headings found within a document.
ContentScaler
Changes the size of a page's contents without altering the actual page dimensions.
DocuMerger
Allows you to merge template PDF files with existing document content.
Flattener
Dramatically reduces the size of certain PDF files by removing active parts like navigation buttons and forms. Flattener can also move content from annotation (like form content and markup) right into the document so that it can be archived or viewed easily.
ImagePlacer
Stamps images in a variety of formats onto your PDF document(s), either as an overlay on top of existing content, or as a watermark below it. Images can also be transparent.
Impress
Stamps text stamps onto selected file(s). Stamps can include variable information such as date/time information and page numbering, including Bates numbering and Roman numerals formats.
InfoSetter
Sets Acrobat information options including Title, Subject, Author, Keywords and the Base Uniform Resource Locator (URL) used for links to the World Wide Web (WWW).
MaskIt
Masks/hides the contents of selected areas within a page or range of pages.
MediaSizer
Alters the media size of the selected PDF document without changing its contents.
OpenOptions
Manages Acrobat's document opening options, including Initial View, Window and User Interface options.
PageManager
Allows you to create a new blank PDF document. You can also create new pages and specify their size, and remove, insert and replace existing pages.
PDFSplitter
Splits a large PDF document into smaller documents. Optionally, any pre-existing links within the original document can be retained when that document is split into smaller documents.
SecuritySetter
Manages Acrobat's Security options within a document, including owner password and access rights.
ThumbNails
Exports thumbnails for your selected document(s) as image files for use in desktop publishing or on websites.
TOCBuilder
Generates Table of Contents automatically from existing bookmarks within a file. TOCBuilder automatically creates the linked references.

You can select any of the above Mapsoft tools for use with Automator, either on their own (across single or multiple documents) or in combination with each other. If used in combination, they can be used in whichever combination and order you require in order to create a sequence of actions (known as an Automator configuration) for those tools. Each tool can be added to this sequence more than once, and each time it is used it can have different settings. This sequence of actions can then be applied to one document or across a library of documents. Sequences of tasks can be saved and reused.

A tryout version of the product is available.
