Question

Export JPEG script – include suffix

I have an existing script that exports jpegs. I am wondering if it is possible to add some lines to it so that it exports with the suffix 'Page size' and then 'px'. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

 

 

------------------------------------------

var doc = app.activeDocument;
var myFolder = doc.filePath;
var jpg_name = doc.name.replace(/.indd$/i, “”);


for(var p = 0; p < app.documents[0].pages.length; p++) {
var myPageName = doc.pages[p].name;

// Set JPEG export preferences
app.jpegExportPreferences.properties = {
antiAlias: true,
embedColorProfile: true,
exportResolution: 72,
// exportingSpread: true, // Uncomment if spreads
jpegColorSpace: JpegColorSpaceEnum.rgb,
jpegExportRange: ExportRangeOrAllPages.exportRange,
jpegQuality: JPEGOptionsQuality.maximum,
jpegRenderingStyle: JPEGOptionsFormat.baselineEncoding,
useDocumentBleeds: false,
simulateOverprint: false,
pageString: myPageName,
}

doc.exportFile(ExportFormat.jpg, File(myFolder +”/”+ jpg_name +” “+myPageName+ “.jpg”), false);
}
alert(“Done Exporting jpg’s!”);

    Replace the line beginning with

    doc.exportFile(...

    with these lines:

    var oldUnits = [
	doc.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits, 
	doc.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits
	];

doc.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = doc.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.PIXELS;

doc.exportFile(ExportFormat.jpg, File(
	myFolder + "/" + jpg_name + " " + myPageName + " " + 
	doc.documentPreferences.pageWidth + " x " + 
	doc.documentPreferences.pageHeight + "px.jpg"
	), false);

doc.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = oldUnits[0];
doc.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = oldUnits[1];

     

    The result of the exported file looks like this:

    MyDocument PageName 1920 x 1080px.jpg

    Thanks very much for your response. It looks promising but when I tested it on a page size of 500x400px but it gave me this result. Wonder if it's an issue with how I've set up the file, but it's under web and pixels as the unit of measure so not sure.

     

    "untitled 1 209.999999999936 x 296.999999999461px"

    Replace these two lines

    doc.documentPreferences.pageWidth + " x " + 
doc.documentPreferences.pageHeight + "px.jpg"

    with these lines:

    Math.round(doc.documentPreferences.pageWidth) + " x " + 
Math.round(doc.documentPreferences.pageHeight) + "px.jpg"
