Hi,
I'm a newbie concerning scripting and i need your help.
Here is the situation : In Illustrator CS6, I have one artboard, and a second one, which has the same size than the first. The right side of one is on the left side of the other. Then we can export two .eps files to publish books.
Now, I would like to resize the first artboard as the new size becomes (artboard 0 + artboard 1) by writing a script (because there are a lot of files to work on). Or eventually create a third artboard, whose size is still (artboard0 + artboard1).
The problem is that every file has different artboards : the height can change but the horizontal size stays the same.
Here is my opinion, and 3 alternatives.
-We should write a script which makes the first artboard (artboard 0) twice bigger only to the right side.
-I can't be sure that "artboard 0" is always the one on the left (even if it should be like this), so the best way is to merge both of the artboards, but Im not sure it's possible by scripting.
-Create a third artboard, whose coordonates are the same on left corners of left artboard, end the same on right corners of right artboard.
I hope I've been clear, and that you can help me on that.
Thank you all in advance !
