用于扩展Ai的强大JSX脚本

Hi everybody :)

This is a collection of JSX scripts for Adobe Illustrator. All scripts created by me, sometimes used part of the code of other authors.

The descriptions for each file can be found in the file's header text. Test environment: Illustrator CS6 (Windows), CC 2017 (Mac OS).

Alphabetical list of scripts

• ArtboardsRotateWithObjects.jsx
• ConvertToGradient.jsx
• Export-selection-as-AI.jsx
• ExtUngroup.jsx (upd, 25.11.2019)
• FileVersionInformer.jsx
• InlineSVGToAI.jsx
• RenameItems.jsx (new, 13.12.2019)

How to run scripts

Variant 1 — Install

1. Download archive and unzip. All scripts are in the folder jsx
2. Place <script_name>.jsx in the Illustrator Scripts folder:
   • OS X: /Applications/Adobe Illustrator [vers.]/Presets.localized/en_GB/Scripts
   • Windows (32 bit): C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator [vers.]\Presets\en_GB\Scripts\
   • Windows (64 bit): C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator [vers.] (64 Bit)\Presets\en_GB\Scripts\
3. Restart Illustrator

Variant 2 — Drag & Drop

Drag and drop the script file (JS or JSX) into Adobe Illustrator Window

Variant 3 — Use extension

I recommend the Scripshon Trees panel. In it you can specify which folder your script files are stored in.
