Illustrator Scripting :: Batching SaveAs In CS6 Will Not Save PDF Compatible

Sep 12, 2012

So I'm using a script that I wrote to bring in files that were converted from CorelDraw to EPS (this is the best conversion process to preserve text and drawing assets).  Basically the script takes the art in the EPS, groups it, places a rectangular border around the art and centers them.  We do this so that they come into InDesign correctly sized.  The problem is, it used to be 100% automated, just about, however now the saveas action command will not remember that "Save as PDF Compatible" needs to be set to true.  When I do a saveas command, it's check by default, but when the saveas command is batched, it does NOT do it that way.  When I try to bring batched AIs into InDesign, it's text that says it was not saved as PDF Compatible.  Am I going to have to script a save function to get control of the saveas settings?  I don't understand why PDF compatible is checked by default, yet batching saveas saves as if it unchecked it.

Illustrator Scripting :: How To Edit Script To Save The Files As SVG Instead Of PNG

Mar 13, 2013

I recently found the following jsx script, which saves a multi-layered IL file into 1-layer-per-file with PNG format.
 
This file is very useful, but i'm currently working on a project that requires the files to be saved into SVG format.
 
Is there anyway to edit this script to save the files as SVG instead of PNG?
 
// *** Export Layers as PNG files (in multiple resolutions) ***
//
// Version: 1.0 (29 Aug 2012)
// Copyright Arcticmill 2012
// www.arcticmill.com
// Developed by: Johan Otterud
//
// This script will export all layers that have a name starting with "#", or "%" into a subfolder of the current .ai document.
// These options can be configured below:
// *** Config options  ***
var subFolderName = "Export";

[Code]...

Remember that you must add a "" + exportLayersStartingWith + "" (when exporting the layer cropped to it's bound) or "" + exportLayersWithArtboardClippingStartingWith + "" (when layer should be clipped to artboard) to the beginning of the layer name. Also make sure that they layers you want to export are not locked or hidden.");

    } else {
        // Show a completed message
        alert(layersToExportCount + " layer(s) was successfully exported to:
" + exportDirectoryPath);
    }

[Code]....

Illustrator Scripting :: Dynamic Save File Path

Jan 14, 2014

So I deal with a lot of files each day that need to be saved according to their lead code, meaning that there is a folder that holds thousands of sub folders that have the same name as this lead code on a server.
 
So since I have the lead code in the file name I'm trying to use that in conjunction with the file path to tell illustrator where to save it with Javascript. Also the idea of a dynamic save path is useful.
 
Here's what I've got so far, it's not working yet but I feel like I'm close.

Illustrator Scripting :: Assign Values To Artboard And Save Within Document?

Oct 14, 2013

Is there any chance to assign values to an artboard?
 
I've experimented with “tags”, but they only work for pageItems. (if the item which includes the stored data is deleted, the data is also deleted)
 
It is simple data like v1=true, v2=false, … I want to assign. And it needs to be saved within the illustrator document.

Illustrator Scripting :: How To Automate Importing Variable And Datasets Into Graphs Via Scripting

Dec 18, 2012

I'm try to automate the importing of the Varaible and datasets into my graphs via Scripting, but the ImportVaraibles() function doesn't seem to work.  Here is my Script, mostly copied from the example script provided with Illustrator (CS5).  And, this works manually, using the file names in the script, via Load Variable Library
 
    Set appRef = CreateObject(strIllistratorVersion)
   
       'Open the file and import the datasets
        Set docRef = appRef.Open(strTemplate & "200-500.ai")
        'docRef.Datasets.RemoveAll
        docRef.Variables("Yearbook").Delete
 
Here is the problem, after I delete the previous library, then this next line, right from the example, does nothing
The script then exits with 'No Datasets in this document'
       
docRef.ImportVariables (strXMLFolder & "Lumber_200-500.xml")
'appRef.DoJavaScript "alert('Template:" & strTemplate & strRange & ".ai  |  XML file:" & strXMLFolder & ""  & objFile.Name & "^')"
        If (appRef.Documents.Count > 0) Then
            Set docRef = appRef.Documents(1)

 [Code]....
 
If I remove that delete line, the script runs, but just uses whatever Variables I had last loaded, not the XML file.
 
It's simply not loading.  What do I need to do to get it to load?

Illustrator :: How To Open PDF And Not PDF Compatible Half Of File

Jan 31, 2014

We first get a digital proof form printers as .pdf. Sometiems they save them with PDF compatible on. This makes my job harder because will get ilustrator asking for all the links when opening the .pdf.
 
What we do is open the .pdf form the printere, adn paste this on topof our orignal .ai file. This is to proof what theyt changed. Adding in theri product numbers, adn updating the UPCS is about all we want to see. What we look for is shifting type, or missing elelements.

Illustrator :: Create PDF Compatible File - Options Turned On

Dec 4, 2013

I was working with Illustrator - InDesign as usual. At the moment of linking my AI file into InDesign, I got this message 8 times in an A4 size frame:
 
"This is an Adobe® Illustrator® file that was saved without PDF content. To place or open this file in other applications, it should be re-saved from Adobe Illustrator with the "Create PDF Compatible File" options turned on. This option is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog box, which appears when saving an Adobe Illustrator file using the Save As command."
 
Weird... I have never seen this before. I resaved the file, and it keeps happening. I see no such option as "Create PDF Compatible File" when saving just an AI file...  I am not trying to make a PDF!
 
I have done the same procedure linking other AI files into this ID file and it is working as usual. Is just this very one. And it doesn't seem particulary different from what I do everyday...
 
I finally made a PDF from the AI and placed it into InDesign. But everytime I have to update the AI..

AutoCAD Inventor :: Saveas Case Sensitive?

Dim sFileName As String = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(sIDWName) & ".Png"

AutoCAD 2013 :: SaveAs And Block Creation

Jul 21, 2012

I have a student that downloaded and installed the 2013 student version of AutoCAD.  She then opened a drawing we were working on in class (2012 standard version) and continued to work at home.  She is able to save that drawing by clicking the save button on the Quick Access toolbar, however she is unable to "Saveas" that drawing to a different name or different release.  The dialog box resets the file name to a file path on her C drive as soon as you move the mouse.

The same thing happens when she goes to make a block - she can type a block name in the window, but as soon as the mouse moves, the name changes to a block name already in the list.
