I have been using the comtypes package for a Photoshop automation for a long time. This is my old version-combination:
WindowsXP/Python 2.4/ctypes/comtypes 0.6.2/Photoshop CS4
After I have moved to Windows 8.1 in combination with Photoshop CS6 I am not able to move my scripts to the new enviroment.
Using Python 2.4
psApp = comtypes.client.CreateObject('Photoshop.Application')
causes a SyntaxError. Then I updated to Python 2.7.8. Here I am not able to install comtypes 1.1.1
Can you please explain what versions of Python & comtypes do I need for a Photoshop CS6 automation under Windows 8.1 and how to install the comtypes package?
Thanks in advance!
