appending a three-digit number corresponding to the data set.

Automation with scripts
When you run a script, your computer performs a sequence of operations. These operations may involve only
Illustrator, or they may involve other applications, such as word-processing, spreadsheet, and database-management
programs.
Illustrator supports multiple scripting environments (including Microsoft Visual Basic, AppleScript, JavaScript, and
ExtendScript). You can use the standard scripts that come with Illustrator, and you can create your own scripts and add
them to the Scripts submenu.
For more information about scripting in Illustrator, see the latest documentation at
www.adobe.com/devnet/illustrator/scripting.html. Sample scripts are installed in the Adobe Illustrator CS5/Scripting
folder.
Run a script
?
Choose File > Scripts, and choose a script. Alternatively, choose File > Scripts > Other Script, and navigate to a script.
Note: If you edit a script while Illustrator is running, you must save your changes for them to take effect.
