Hi,

This is my first post as i'm a Hazel newbie

I can get Hazel to content search within a PDF file for a particular 'keyword' then email me the file if found via Outlook, is there a way that I could get an email stating which file the word was found in?

something along the lines of 'Keyword found in the file: testfile1234.pdf'

Thanks in advance

That should be doable though you'll need to use Automator or AppleScript to do the mailing part.

Thanks for the feedback, I've managed to get mail to send me a notification without including the file but can't seem to figure out how to tell me which file it found the words within yet.

Hazel sends the path of the file in to Automator/AppleScript so you'll need to take that and do something with it. If you are using AppleScript, search the forums as there should be scripts showing this.
