Hi!
I found this wonderful Script in this community:
What he does!
It saves properly named files with the name of the active layer inside a subfolder "Rolad Prints";
The script works this way:
When I have a document and an active layer called "My Image" when executing the script, it saves the document called "My Image.tiff" inside the subfolder "Rolad Prints"
My goal is:
1st - Add a suffix to the file whenever I execute the script one or more times:
Example:
layer tiva_00. tiff, (Once run)
layer tiva_01. tiff, (twice run)
layer tiva_02. tiff ... (three times run)
on the same document.
2º - Add a function that allows to open a "explore window" displaying all the files in the subfolder:
I tried this but it is on the main path you inves from the subfolder "Rolad Prints"
docPath.execute ();
I also tried:Presented an error.
subfolder.execute (); //subfolder "Rolad Prints"
Is there any intelligent friend capable of making these modifications for me?
Thank you!
Script:
var subfolder = "Rolad Prints";
var tif_layers = true; // change to false if you want flatten image
// Backup_Estampa
(function() {
try {
if (app.documents.length > 0) {
var thedoc = app.activeDocument;
// getting the name and location;
var docName = thedoc.name;
var basename = docName;
if (docName.indexOf(".") != -1)
basename = docName.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1]
// getting the location, if unsaved save to desktop;
var docPath = "~/Desktop";
try {
docPath = thedoc.path;
} catch (e) {}
// tif options;
var tiffOptions = new TiffSaveOptions();
with (tiffOptions)
{
alphaChannels = true;
annotations = true;
byteOrder = ByteOrder.IBM;
embedColorProfile = true;
imageCompression = TIFFEncoding.NONE;
interleaveChannels = true;
jpegQuality = 12;
layerCompression = LayerCompression.ZIP;
layers = tif_layers;
saveImagePyramid = false;
spotColors = true;
transparency = false;
}
//save tif as a copy:
if (!Folder(docPath + "/" + subfolder).exists) Folder(docPath + "/" + subfolder).create();
var saveFile = docPath + '/' + subfolder + '/' + thedoc.activeLayer.name +'.tif';
if (File(saveFile).exists)
saveFile = incrementFile(saveFile);
thedoc.saveAs(new File(saveFile), tiffOptions, true);
docPath.execute();
//that’s it; thanks to xbytor;
};
function incrementFile(pathToFile) {
var saveSufixLength = 2,
suffix = zeroPad(0, saveSufixLength),
newPathToFile = pathToFile,
suffixInteger, folder, fileName, extension;
while (File(newPathToFile).exists) {
suffixInteger = parseInt(suffix, 10);
suffixInteger += 1;
suffix = zeroPad(suffixInteger, saveSufixLength);
folder = File(pathToFile).path;
fileName = File(pathToFile).name.substring(0, File(pathToFile).name.lastIndexOf("."));
extension = File(pathToFile).name.substring(File(pathToFile).name.lastIndexOf(".") + 1, File(pathToFile).name.length);
newPathToFile = folder + "/" + fileName + "_" + suffix + "." + extension;
}
return newPathToFile;
function zeroPad(num, digit) {
var tmp = num.toString();
while (tmp.length < digit) {
tmp = "0" + tmp;
}
return tmp;
}
}
} catch (e) {
alert(e.toString() + "\nScript File: " + File.decode(e.fileName).replace(/^.*[\|\/]/, '') +
"\nFunction: " + arguments.callee.name +
"\nError on Line: " + e.line.toString())
}
})(); // MODIFICATION 5 !!!!!

...$.level = 0; try{
(pth = (aD = activeDocument).path).exists
with(tiff = new TiffSaveOptions()) {
alphaChannels = embedColorProfile = interleaveChannels = layers
= saveImagePyramid = spotColors = transparency = annotations = true
byteOrder = ByteOrder.IBM, imageCompression = TIFFEncoding.NONE
jpegQuality = 12, layerCompression = LayerCompression.ZIP
}
if (!(sub = Folder(pth + '/' + RP = 'Rolad Prints')).exists &&
prnt = decodeURI(pth.name)

I had done some testing and it worked perfectly! Today I saw your post I did other tests with other files and actually presented this alert message: Script works only with saved documents!
Thankfully you noticed and corrected the problem before you even realized it. Thank you for making mine mines more efficient!
By following your guidelines, I've made changes here to PDF and JPEG formats and they are all working perfectly well with your script! I am very pleased with the results.
My biggest wish now is to be able to execute the File (pth) .execute () function with a button:
Ex:
When the save process is completed, a small dialog box opens with a message type: The process has been completed successfully! and just below this message, I will add a button called "Open directory" ... would be the function File (pth) .execute ()
I'm going to have to leave now and when I come back later, I'll make a dialog box show how it should work. See you....
