I added CS6 COM reference in my VB.NET application and after that I have the following basic object creation in order to convert a eps file to svg. But for some reason when I create this COM object it is launching the Adobe Illustrator application. Why it is doing like this? It’s a simple COM object why it is interacting with Illustrator Editor?

I want a script that can convert RGB value to CMYK values.
I've seen this thread which explains a script to round up and down:
[URL].....
but is there a script that i can actually define lets say the colour is yellow and in RGB it looks ok because its in RGB mode so you change it to CMYK and you have 6% - 9% cyan and you only want yellow
is there a script out there that i can say
if
cyan = 6%
yellow = 80%
magenta = 0%
black = 0%
then change to
cyan = 0%
yellow = 80&
mangenta = 0%
black = 0%
I don't mind writting the code for each colour that needs to be converted as it would only need defining once but how would i make this script?

I have a list of 300+ colors that I need to make into a swatch library for Illustrator. The data looks like this:

DAFFODIL,249,231,21
MOONBEAM,249,223,22

Script which would convert the layers in a document to artboards? At present I have a lot of documents with a couple of hundred layers on each of them, but I've decided to change the way that I organise my workflow and started using artboards instead. I don't really have the time to spend moving them individually from a layer over on to an artboard as there are a lot.

I work with a large number of Illustrator files daily that all use the Pantone Solid Coated library for their swatch color scheme. This color library will be used whether customers provide the art pieces or if I design the pieces for them.
However, I have found that in order to best match our digital press we must to convert the inks to the Pantone Color Bridge CMYK PC library before printing.
Basically the same color number just the different library (eg PMS 200C would convert to PMS 200PC if outputing in-house to the digital press).
My question - is it possible to create a script that would swap out all the colors in a document (that are in a specific library) with the same colors from a different library?
*More specifically what I am wanting to do is if I have a document that has a dozen solid coated colors swap them for their same numerical equivelant in the Color Bridge CMYK PC library.

I have a scriptUI generated palette which contains 26 icons linked to their respective scripts. When an icon is pressed, it invokes the required script via this:
searchPanel.children[0].onClick = function(){
searchOne.open("r");
var bt = new BridgeTalk;
[Code].....
My other scripts have "normal" functions that don't cause any problems, so I'm assuming it has something with BridgeTalk being loaded inside the palette function (since the code that's read in from the file is inserted at the location from where it's called).
how to place an image into illustrator via scripting with javascript, however I am having difficulties with text files. My code is:
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var Layer1 = myDoc.layers[0];
function getTextFile() {
return File.openDialog('Please select the text file to be imported:', undefined, undefined);
}
var myTextfile = getTextFile();
var myPlacedFile = Layer1.placedItems.add();
myPlacedFile.file = myTextfile;
But when I select a text file, it says it is an unsupported format. I'm assuming it has something to do with the extra options that come with importing a text document, specific for .txt and .doc for example.
For what it's worth I was working on an alternate method by read() ing in the contents of the .txt file and setting them equal to the contents of a textFrame, however it imported the text without carriage returns/newlines and I haven't been able to result that issue.
