Adding OmniFocus to the Share menu in DEVONthink

I think we’re deviating here (or splitting into 2 issues) . . .

I wanted to create a task in OmniFocus linked to a document in DEVONthink. I now know that I can do that using a script from the DEVONthink Scripts folder Reminders called Add as To Do to OmniFocus. This does get labeled as a Reminder but I could change that by editing the script. This puts a task into the OmniFocus Inbox with an attachment linked to the document in DEVONthink. That solves my problem.

The second issue (which I’m less concerned about) is being able to add a document to OmniFocus but not as a task - maybe just to add it as a supporting document. That could be accomplished by selecting the document in DEVONthink and doing a Copy Item Link and finally pasting that link into OmniFocus as an attachment.

Sharing to OmniFocus on the Share Menu in DEVONthink doesn’t seem to create a task in OmniFocus whereas to Reminders does. Maybe this is an OmniFocus issue rather than a DEVONthink one?
