Product Description
UntitledIf you're a designer, production pro, or Illustrator power user, chances are you repeat tedious tasks over and over in your daily work. Think about it: How many times have you performed the same step on hundreds of images? Save time--and wear-and-tear on your wrists--with Adobe Illustrator Scripting, the clearest, quickest route to reducing your workload and making life easier through the power of scripting.
Adobe Illustrator Scripting combines the in-depth coverage of a reference book with actual hands-on training that shows you how to create and run scripts in Illustrator, using both AppleScript (for Mac users) and Visual Basic (for the PC). You'll learn how to automate tasks such as linking graphics to a database, transforming images, and performing batch processes. There's no better time to try your hand at scripting, even if you have no prior experience--with Illustrator 10, the program is more scriptable than ever before. Adobe Illustrator Scripting will help you unlock the true potential of this workhorse application.

Customer Reviews & Comments Thanks Adobe for making Illustrator scriptable! And thanks Ethan Wilde and Adobe Press for putting together such a compelling text on automating Illustrator. If you do anything in Illustrator regularly, this book is going to change your life. PC or Mac - it doesn't matter because the author has done the most amazing thing: He explains both scripting langauges side-by-side in the introduction, scriping tutorials, and examples in the book. I'm just glad that I use AppleScript 'cause it sure looks easier that Visual Basic!
