: I need an Illustrator script to select all visible text-elements one after another and make them a text variable I want to translate a huge amount of illustrations from Illustrator. The Variable-Tool
I want to translate a huge amount of illustrations from Illustrator. The Variable-Tool offers a great opportunity to transform text into XML that can be read by translation software and reingested into Illustrator after editing to replace all texts.
The problem: there is no way to make all visible text-elements in an illustration a seperate variable. So it's a tedious process to select each text and klick on "make variable".
I would need a script that:
- checks all visible texts
- makes each element a seperate variable
- optionally: automatically starts "save dataset" in order to save the variable.
Is there any script like this? Or could anyone help in producing s.th. like this? I think it would be very helpful for many people!

Have you looked up the VariableImporter script? You can start with a .csv spreadsheet and it can automatically create your variables based on the art's name inside the layers panel. There's even an accompanying "rename art from text" script which makes this process even faster.
Check out the script repository here: github.com/Silly-V/Adobe-Illustrator/tree/master/Variable%20Importer
