Hi,

We have recently upgraded to CS6 from CS4. We have been using "PluginItem.tracing.imageResolution" property to get the image resolution in Ilustrator. Currently this property is not available in the CS6 DOM.

Could any one guide me on how to use image trace to get the resolution of the image? Or is there any other method to get the resolution of the placed image in CS6 using javascript?

Thanks,

Parivalavan, M

You may need to load the external XMP library and read the file's X & Y resolutions then do a little math…

Hi moluapple,

Thanks for the reply. I have gone through the method successfully already. Thanks for the info. My doubt is why CS6 does not have this method while CS4 has? Sorry if I have asked that is too obvious.

Thanks for your valuable time.

As adobe said, they made a new version of Image Trace plugin in CS6, may be they think the "imageResolution" property is useless and removed it.
