Outlook 2011 for Aperture email

Question

I use to use entourage as a way to email from Aperture3 but Outlook 2011 for Mac isn't supported...anyone have a workaround?

Answer 1

A workaround that works is
1. Go to applications, select Aperture
2. Control/Right click and select "show package contents"
3. Select Plugins folder
4. Rename Microsoft Entourage.applescript to Microsoft Entourage1.applescript (or what ever you want to call it- if you ever want to use Entourage again reverse the naming)
5. Go to Utilities / Open apple script editor
6. Select new file and paste the text between the dotted lines below into script editor
7. Save file as Microsoft Entourage, with file type "text" ( this will add the extension applescript to name.
8. Copy this file to the Aperture plugin folder
8. Open Aperture go to / Preferences / Export and select Microsoft Outlook in the "Email Using" field.
9. Done
on mailimages(emailsubject, default_address, image_count, new_files, new_captions, new_comments, cancel_string)
try
tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
activate
set the new_message to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:email_subject}
set sig to content of new_message
tell new_message
if image_count is 0 then
set the content to new_captions
else
set the content to return & return
end if
repeat with image_idx from 1 to image_count
set this_caption to item image_idx of new_captions
set this_comment to item image_idx of new_comments
set comments to ""
if this_caption is not " " then
set comments to this_caption & return
end if
if this_comment is not " " then
set comments to comments & this_comment & return
end if
if comments is not "" then
set the content to content & comments & return
end if
set this_imagefile to item image_idx of new_files
-- convert the image path from UNIX to Mac
set thisimagefilepath to (POSIX file this_imagefile) as string
make new attachment at new_message with properties {file:(thisimagefilepath)}
end repeat
set the content to content & sig
end tell
open new_message
end tell
on error error_message number error_number
log error_message & " " & error_number
if the error_number is not -128 then
tell application "Finder"
beep
display dialog error_message buttons {cancel_string} default button 1
end tell
end if
end try
end mail_images
