Thanks Mark, I will take a look at the uRIP docs. However, I still prefer to get the version and copyright info I want from the info.plist. I just have this aversion to storing the same information in multiple places, especially if any of them have to be maintained manually. I know myself well enough to know that I WILL forget to update them!
I plan on trying some code in a savingStandalone handler to get hold ot he version/copyright from the cRevStandalone custom property set and store it in my own custom properties. Meantime, grabbing the info from info.plist works just fine on OS X, just need to figure out where the equivalent location for it is under WIndows.
