Why doesn't my simple script work?

[ggre]

I'm an Autohotkey novice, but I do use some simple scripts. I'm trying to write one to use with Acrobat -- to tell it to scan a document.
Here's the whole script:

Code: Select all

;Starts scanning a document (when Acrobat is running)
;
#SingleInstance force
^!s::
Send !frs
Send {TAB 4}
return

edit: please use code tags

The problem is that the tabs are never sent. The script does "Send !frs" then stops. What am I doing wrong?

Try with a sleep between sends. Could be the program is not ready to accept the tabs yet.

Code: Select all

;Starts scanning a document (when Acrobat is running)
;
#SingleInstance force
^!s::
Send !frs
Sleep 500
Send {TAB 4}
return
