Answer 1

The shell command qlmanage with option -p followed by your file path activates the Quick Look feature, same as the space bar on the Finder. Example:

Set myFile to "/HD/Users/me/Desktop/image.jpg"
do shell script "qlmanage -p " & myFile's quoted form

For more options, use Terminal with command: man qlmanage
