Adobe Illustrator do script command

  • Thread-topic: Adobe Illustrator do script command

I have an Applescript application that is interacting with Adobe Illustrator. One of the commands is:

tell application "Adobe Illustrator"

do script  "Some Script" from "Some Action" without dialogs

end tell


… more stuff


… save Illustrator file


My problem is that when the command runs to "do script", which is a Action in Illustrator, Illustrator immediately returns command back to the Applescript which continues to run. The script does not wait for the Illustrator 'do script' to actually finish, and so a few more commands later, the Applescript tells Illustrator to save the file. The problem is, that the Illustrator Action may still be running and the file is not ready to be saved.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.
Jim
