Separate Photoshop CS3 Scripting reference information is provided for each of these languages

the Extend Script Object Model Viewer, see the JavaScript Tools Guide.

Chapter four covers the Action Manager, which allows you to write scripts that target Photoshop CS3 
functionality that is not otherwise accessible in the scripting interface.

Please review the README file shipped with Photoshop CS3 for late-breaking news, sample scripts, 
and information about outstanding issues.

Several conventions are used when referring to AppleScript, VBScript and JavaScript. Please note the 
following shortcut notations:

●

AS stands for AppleScript

●

VBS stands for VBScript

●

JS stands for JavaScript

The term “commands” will be used to refer both to commands in AppleScript and methods in VBScript and 
JavaScript.

When referring to specific properties and commands, this manual follows the AppleScript naming 
convention for that property and the VBScript and JavaScript names appear in parenthesis. For example:

“The 

display dialogs (DisplayDialogs/displayDialogs)

 property is part of the Application 

object.”
