Hi
Can I run Illustrator batches from the Bridge (CS5), or is it only Photoshop batches that can do this? If I go to Tools>Photoshop, there's a bunch of options, including Batch…, but under Tools>Illustrator there's only one option, Live Trace…. If I want to run a batch that doesn't involve Live Trace, can I do it from the Bridge or do I have to run it from Illustrator?
The additional functions that are under Tools for Ps, Ai & Id are provided by 'Bridge' start-up scripts (You can turn these on/off). These are samples wrote by Adobe. There is only the one for Ai but that does not mean that you can't add more… You get a scripting Tool Kit with the suite so you could learn to make your own?
