Setting PDF to open with Adobe Acrobat Reader uses Preview to open instead, how to fix?
MacOS 13.2 I have set all PDFs to open with Adobe Acrobat Reader. (Get Info, change all) I created an Automater app to print a specific PDF. The Automator app launches the PDF and the MacOS opens Preview, instead of Acrobat Reader. There are elements in the PDF that Preview does not print. How do I cause the MacOS to open PDFs for printing with Adobe Acrobat Reader, when using Automator?

the file document.pdf couldn't be opened because you don't have permission to view it
I am the developer of a 4D app that runs on MacOS 13.2 Ventura, that monitors an SFTP upload folder, and processes the uploaded documents, including printing them using an OSAScript from within the 4D app. This app was working correctly for years on earlier MacOS versions. Upon launching the pdf with OSAScript the MacOS shows an error message: 4D Server has been set to Full Disk Access, and so has Preview. 4D Server has been added to the list of apps in the Allow applications to use developer tools. If I double click the PDF document, preview opens it. Launching the PDF from within 4D Server shows the error. The SFTP uploads are done in a different User account than the 4D Server is running in. Copying the uploaded PDFs make the copied file owner the 4D Server user account, but OSAScript still won't launch the copied PDF. How do I fix this?
