Read the opened file in Illustartor

Hi,

Not sure I understand you quetsion completely. If you are looking the answers for the following issues

1. Open local image from your system in your Illustartor application

The following code assumes, Test.png file exists inside the Desktop folder. Change path corresponding to your machine.

var _file = new File('~/Desktop/Test.png');
if(_file.exists){
    app.open(_file);
}

2. If you want to open the image file from the web

For this case, first you need to download the image using node methods and after that you can open the file as above and us ethe path where images is downloaded.

3. To include js file

Before evalFile() like below, you can check whether the file exists or not. It may be possible the path that you are using is not the correct path.

$.evalFile(File('~/Desktop/sample.js'));

So try like

var _file = new File('~/Desktop/sample.js');
if (_file.exists) {
    $.evalFile(_file);
} else {
    alert('File not exists');
}

Also, it depends on the structure of your js file, how you write the methods in that file and how are you calling them. It will be easy for us to help if you share your code for the file, that you want to include or eval.
