Re: Illustrator configurator scripting

That sounds good.
I did that as described. First an Illustrator file, then a PDF file in the input folder.
But nothing happens.

I've also attached a screenshot. But our system is unfortunately in German.

Re: Illustrator configurator scripting

Unfortunately, I can't tell. I don't see how I can test this. That's why I dropped the post here.
First, I want to make sure that switch is communicating correctly with Illustrator.
If that works, I check the scripts or calls again carefully.

Re: Illustrator configurator scripting

There ist an entry "Enfocus Switch Watchdog" in the service list. But its status is not running (on my german system the status is "beendet" like stopped).
So I think that's not the problem.

Re: Illustrator configurator scripting

I have now deleted the old Illustrator CS5.1 installation and updated the Illustrator configurator to version 12. Now when I click "search for Application" Switch will find Illustrator CC2018 automatically. So I don't have to set the path manually anymore. Otherwise nothing has changed. Th...

Re: Illustrator configurator scripting

Has there been a change in the setup of Switch that it is now running as a service? Unfortunately, I don't understand what you mean. "Has there been a change in the setup of Switch that it is now running as a service?" Can I look it up somewhere? Unfortunately, I have not received any inf...

Re: Illustrator configurator scripting

That's right. However, no messages are displayed for Illustrator, the affected flow, or the job. Even if I enter the information in the browser's search field, I don't get any hits. When I filter for debug messages, I don't see any entry at all.

Re: Illustrator configurator scripting

The logging of debug messages is activated in the basic settings.
When I call up "Messages" using the button, I get an extensive list in the browser. But in it I don't find any reports about the flow or about Illustrator.

Re: Illustrator configurator scripting

The ESTK is installed. I can run the scripts in Illustrator and they work fine. The variables are also correctly filled by switch. Is there any way to test that the connection between Illustrator and switch is working correctly and that Illustrator is responding?

Re: Illustrator configurator scripting

Hi Jan,
thanks for the quick answer. I have already set the path manually. The Illustrator icon is then colored, but the script is still not executed.
Somehow switch fails to connect to Illustrator.

Hello, I'm new to the switch community and I'm just getting used to it. However, I have inherited an existing, quite extensive, switch environment and have to learn to manage it. I currently have a problem with the Illustrator configurator. There are some Java scripts for controlling Illustrator tha...
