Is there a way to do this with a simple, non-grouped object? I want to
add an image to the same place on each card. I can do it by making it
a group of one (select image, then group selected) and then using the
script suggested:
repeat with j = 1 to 10
place group "this group" onto card j
end repeat
but I have not been able to do it for a simple image (or other object).
Is there a different command that I can use to place individual
objects.
