Organize action sets
To help you organize your actions, you can create sets of actions and save the sets to disk. You can organize sets of
actions for different types of work—such as print publishing and online publishing—and transfer sets to other
computers.
• To create a new set of actions, click the Create New Set button in the Actions panel or choose New Set from the
panel menu. Then enter the name of the set, and click OK.
note: If you plan to create a new action and group it in a new set, make sure you create the set first. Then, the new set
will appear in the set popup menu when you create your new action.
• To move an action to a different set, drag the action to that set. When the highlighted line appears in the desired
position, release the mouse button.
• To rename a set of actions, double-click the name of the set in the Actions panel or choose Set Options from the
Actions panel menu. Then enter the new name of the set, and click OK.
• To replace all actions in the Actions panel with a new set, choose Replace Actions from the Actions panel menu.
Select an actions file, and click Load (Photoshop) or Open (Illustrator).
Note: The Replace Actions command replaces all sets of actions in the current document. Before using the command,
make sure that you have already saved a copy of your current set of actions using the Save Actions command.
Play an action on a batch of files
The Batch command lets you play an action on a folder of files and subfolders. You can also use the Batch command to
populate a template for data-driven graphics with different sets of data.
1 Choose Batch from the Actions panel menu.
2 For Play, select the action you want to play.
3 For Source, choose the folder on which to play the action. Or select Data Sets to play the action on each data set in
the current file.
If you select a folder, you can set additional options for playing the action.
4 For Destination, specify what you want to do with the processed files. You can leave the files open without saving
the changes (None), save and close the file in their current location (Save And Close), or save the files to a different
location (Folder).
Depending on the Destination option you select, you can set additional options for saving the files.
5 Specify how you want Illustrator to handle errors during the batch process. If you select Log Errors To File, click
Save As, and name the error file.
6 Click OK.
Saving files using the Batch command options always saves the files in the same format as the original files. To create
a batch process that saves files in a new format, record the Save As or Save A Copy command, followed by the Close
command, as part of your original action. Then choose None for the Destination when setting up the batch process.
To batch-process using multiple actions, create a new action, and record the Batch command for each action you
want to use. This technique also lets you process multiple folders in a single batch. To batch-process multiple folders,
create aliases within a folder to the other folders you want to process.
