AppleScripts is a super useful tool to create time-saving shortcuts and improve your workflow. If you're looking for a great way to streamline your process on Mac, whether it be through application usage or mouse+keyboard automation, AppleScripts is the way to go.
In this video, I'll show you how to:
1. Create two microautomations in AppleScript to save out multiple Google Slides presentations as PDFs.
2. Take a full-page screenshot with Google Chrome.
I also provide a step-by-step guide on how to code the microautomations and set up helper applications and scripts. If you'd like to see the script in action jump to 14:05.
This tutorial is available as written instructions within my e-guide at:
