Hello forum,

May i get a help from you.

I m trying to maintain only the geometricBound[2] (top of the frame) and moving all the 3 sides of the frame towards Bleed..

my simple english style script is..

(trying to keep the Top frame position as it and move all the 3 geometric Bounds towards the Bleed).

How Can i check using if condition that all the 3 frames are to touching Marings, like below. and if so move them towards bleed.Do not move the frame if it is not touching the maring.

if (app.selection[0].geometricBounds == [pageBounds[0]-maringBottom, pageBounds[1]+marginLeft, app.selection[0].geometricBounds[2], pageBounds[3]-marginRight])

{

app.selection[0].geometricBounds = [pageBounds[0]+bottomBleed, pageBounds[1]-bleedLeft, app.selection[0].geometricBounds[2], pageBounds[3]+bleedRight]

Please help on this forum.

Dhinak..

Hi Forum,

I also tried like this, (modify the frame geometricbounds, bottom bounds which touch the bottom margin, left bound which touch the leftmargin and right bound which touches the right margin.)

but the script adjust the any frame which does matches the above conditions.

//var pI = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0).pageItems.lastItem();

slu = app.activeDocument.documentPreferences;

pB = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0).bounds[0];

pL = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0).bounds[1];

pT = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0).bounds[2];

pR = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0).bounds[3];

mL = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences.left;

mR = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences.right;

mT = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences.top;

mB = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences.bottom;

bT = app.activeDocument.documentPreferences.documentBleedTopOffset;

bB = app.activeDocument.documentPreferences.documentBleedBottomOffset;

bL = app.activeDocument.documentPreferences.documentBleedInsideOrLeftOffset;

bR = app.activeDocument.documentPreferences.documentBleedOutsideOrRightOffset;

pH = app.activeDocument.documentPreferences.pageHeight;

pW = app.activeDocument.documentPreferences.pageWidth;

sH = app.selection[0].visibleBounds[2]-app.selection[0].visibleBounds[0];

if (app.selection[0].geometricBounds == [app.selection[0].visibleBounds[0], pL+mL, pH-app.selection[0].geometricBounds[1], pR-mR]) {

app.selection[0].geometricBounds = [app.selection[0].visibleBounds[0], pL-bL, app.selection[0].visibleBounds[2]+mB+bB, pR+bR] // modifying the bounds left , right and bottom to touch the bleed left, right and bottom, without disturbing the top bound.

}
