Hi All,

 

I have checked the Photoshop Object model for apply "World_ready layout " to all text layers in the .psd files, but I can't find any possibilites over there. Is it possible via Action manager code or scripting and also I want to apply Horizontal and Vertical Diacritics to be set to 0.

I as able to get the code functions via ScriptingListener. Here is code for applying "World Ready Layout" & "Latin and East-Asian Layout":

setWorldReadyLayout();

function setWorldReadyLayout() {
  var descriptor = new ActionDescriptor();
  var descriptor2 = new ActionDescriptor();
  var reference = new ActionReference();

  reference.putProperty( stringIDToTypeID( "property" ), stringIDToTypeID( "paragraphStyle" ));
  reference.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID( "textLayer" ), stringIDToTypeID( "ordinal" ), stringIDToTypeID( "targetEnum" ));
  descriptor.putReference( stringIDToTypeID( "null" ), reference );
  descriptor2.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID( "textComposerEngine" ), stringIDToTypeID( "textComposerEngine" ), stringIDToTypeID( "textOptycaComposer" )); // World-Ready Layout code
  descriptor.putObject( stringIDToTypeID( "to" ), stringIDToTypeID( "paragraphStyle" ), descriptor2 );
  executeAction( stringIDToTypeID( "set" ), descriptor, DialogModes.NO );
}

setLEALayout();

function setLEALayout() {
  var descriptor = new ActionDescriptor();
  var descriptor2 = new ActionDescriptor();
  var reference = new ActionReference();

  reference.putProperty( stringIDToTypeID( "property" ), stringIDToTypeID( "paragraphStyle" ));
  reference.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID( "textLayer" ), stringIDToTypeID( "ordinal" ), stringIDToTypeID( "targetEnum" ));
  descriptor.putReference( stringIDToTypeID( "null" ), reference );
  descriptor2.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID( "textComposerEngine" ), stringIDToTypeID( "textComposerEngine" ), stringIDToTypeID( "textLatinCJKComposer" )); // Latin and East-Asian Layout code
  descriptor.putObject( stringIDToTypeID( "to" ), stringIDToTypeID( "paragraphStyle" ), descriptor2 );
  executeAction( stringIDToTypeID( "set" ), descriptor, DialogModes.NO );
}

Hi All,

 

Is there any way to enable the world-ready layout in the photoshop document via any scripting language

Try setting up a Text Tool Preset with that option set and select that preset in your script after activating the text tool it should work.

 

Script and actions can do very little when it come to setting  Photoshop UI options.

Thanks Mack. Could you please explain in detail how to append the "world-ready layout" option in tool preset? and this new approach for me.
