How to export guides? Is it possible??

Going off at a wee tangent, Bert Monroy used Illustrator to create guidlines for where the shadows would fall in his mamouth Times Square illustration, and transfered them to Photoshop.  These would obviously be angled lines, and not suitable for converting to Photoshop Guides, but's interesting trivia if you like that sort of thing.

One simple way to place Photoshop guides into AfterEffects. Create your guides in Photoshop > Save the .psd file > Import the .psd file into After Effects as a Composite > Guides are now in your After Effects file.
You can now View > Export Guides .... to save them, and re-use them in other Comps.
There may other ways, but this does work (Although if your Guides are coloured, this won't transfer to After Effects, yet)

You have been given multiple workable options to achieve your goal, can you please mark one or more replies as correct?

Don't bother with all that.

Create a new Photoshop document. Drag out your guides to where you want them. Turn on snapping and draw a short path with the line tool, snapped to each guide. Once you have them all, File->Export->Paths to Illustrator.

Open the new Illustrator file. Drag the Direct Selection Tool over your document to locate and select the paths, one by one. With snapping on, drag your guide from the ruler to each path.

Its much faster than it sounds, you can recreate a complex guide layout in just a couple of minutes.

One can use a Script to output a txt-file with the numbers (and whatever) to use with a Script in another application (if that application offers Scripting functionality). 

For Illustrator and Indesign one could even use BridgeTalk to address them in the same Script that works in Photoshop. 

But without some experience with JavaScript and the involved DOMs it would seem difficult. 

What are you actually trying to do? 

Please post screenshots/sketches to clarify. 

Not directly, however, paths can be exported to Illustrator and Illustrator can convert paths to guides. But this is a bit convoluted.

I'm not aware of a script to convert guides to paths in Photoshop, only guides to raster lines.

You can draw lines, rectangles, ellipses and other more complex paths directly in Illustrator and create guides from them.

I'd look into Illustrator native features or scripts.

Hi @S01200 

Thanks for reaching out.

It is not possible to export guides from Photoshop and use them in other programs.

For Adobe Illustrator, you can use the grids and guides in the application. Check this: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/rulers-grids-guides-crop-marks.html.
