Illustrator Automator Actions: Demo Available
Good news! We’ve made a trial version of Ai Actions available for download so you can give it a test drive before buying. Ai Actions gives you a set of handy Illustrator Automator Actions which you can use to create your own workflows and even apps to automate your work. And the best thing is that you don’t need to write a line of code! If you can drag and drop, you can create a workflow.
NB. The demo version contains 4 sample actions. The full version contains 18 actions.
Less donkey work, more creativity!
Lets imagine you have a hundred Illustrator artworks and you need to open each, delete any empty text frames, convert all the text to outlines and save as a JPEG and a PDF. Normally you’d have to do that by hand. Using Ai Actions and Automator you can create a workflow to do this automatically saving you heaps of time. And more importantly, letting you concentrate on the creative stuff instead of the boring donkey-work.
A simple Automator workflow using Ai Actions to automate Adobe Illustrator
Why use Automator?
The advantage of Automator is that you can use functionality from many other apps in your workflow. So, for example, if you wanted to email the PDFs created by your workflow then you can harness the power of Mail.app to do that for you.
The trial version has only four Automator actions whereas the full version contains 18. There are some tips for getting to grips with Automator here:
