Hi,

Adobe support, can you please visit the code below and recommend why the SVG isn't coming up with individual artboard? Seems same artboard gets export 4 times, with updated file-name:

--used normal repeat routine to open multiple illustrator file(s), then:

try

export to outFile as SVG with options {artboard range:ab_range, save multiple artboards:true, coordinate precision:2, font type:outline font, minify svg:false, raster image location:"embed", responsive svg:false}

on error e

display dialog e as string

try

export to outFile as SVG with options {artboard range:ab_range}

on error ee

display dialog ee as string

end try

end try

 

-- Also realised that this export command essentially gets skipped and it uses the second option to export the illustrator file however not all artboards only, 4th one and 4 times, with artboard-names for each. That too it is essentially using 'save-as' SVG rather the export function. Here is the test AI file.

Any help will be much appreciated.

 

Kind regards
