I work a lot of graphics daily and at the end of the work i always save in two different formats: PDF Print Ready & JPG (RGB) 300dpi > Quality 10

So everytime i do have to make this steps:


1) CTRL + A > Select all elements from all artboards
2) CTRL + SHIFT + O > Create Outlines
3) CTRL + SHIFT + S > Select PDF (Note: if there is a file with same name i always overwrite)
4) Select Preset: PDF/X1a:2001)
5) Go to Marks & Bleeds > Select checkbox: "Use documents bleed and settings"
6) Hit Save
7) Go File > Export
8) Select JPG
9) Check box "Use Artboards" (leave "All" selected as standard, no change here) Note: if there is a file(s) with same name i always overwrite
10) Select Color Mode "RGB"
11) Quality 10 (maximum)
12) Options: Baseline (Standard) + 300 dpi + Type Optimised (Hinted)
13) Click "Ok"


After this process i will end with:


1x PDF File (all artboards inside separated by pages)
All JPG files separate files per artboard.


I would like to know if there is available a script that replicates this kind of steps at once (multiple sabe actions) since its always this same process i use? Or something very similar so i can try an adaptation?

Thank you in advance.

You can make a SINGLE pdf file and download the software here

Open the file in the software
file > Export > Export to Image
You can select the image type JPG, PNG,etc

You can record an action.

Go to Windows>Actions
Create a new Set and within that create a new action.

Then follow all the steps you usually take, I would record this with a generic file first. In a convenient save location, for example in Windows, in the Documents folder.

The PDF and JPG will save as the same name as the illustrator file and in the location where you specified when you recorded the action. You can then move the files to where ever you need to store them.

You can also set a keyboard shortcut to the action before recording.
