Relinking Files

Relinking Files

Linking large number of files has always been a pain in the ass since Illustrator only lets you do it one-by-one. All the scripts in Links sub-directory provide solution to execute once.

Change Page

Change links page.

A faster script to change links’ PDF page, because it doesn’t open up a file picker.

Relink links to same file.

Opens up a file picker to select a single image or PDF file. In case of PDF file, an additional panel is shown to specify page and cropping type.

Flow of relink same.

Relink links to multiple files/pages.

Opens up a file picker to select multiple image and/or PDF files. There are 3 possible scenarios here:

  1. Given a multiple non-PDF files, iterate files.
  2. Given a single PDF file, iterate pages.
  3. Given a combination of PDF and non-PDF files, iterate files and always use first page when PDF is found.

Flow of relink multiple.
