Artboard to Fit to Artwork Bounds with Multiple Artboards

Hi @

this is possible manually or with scripting.

Give this script a try:

// artboard_createNewArtboardOverAllArtwork.jsx
// erstellt ein neue Zeichenfläche über die sichtbaren Grenzen aller (in allen Zeichenflächen vorhandenen) eingeblendeten Grafiken
// https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2476290
// regards pixxxel schubser  09/04/18
var aDoc = app.activeDocument;
aDoc.selection = null;
var aSel = app.executeMenuCommand ('selectall');
var aSel = app.executeMenuCommand ('group');
var aSel = app.executeMenuCommand ('outline');
var abRect = aDoc.groupItems[0].visibleBounds;
var aSel = app.executeMenuCommand ('undo');
var abRect = aDoc.artboards.add(abRect);

This snippet will create a new (but only one) artboard over all visible artwork. No selection required.

If this helps a little,

have fun

But on the second view it seems I understood your requirement totally wrong. Do you need fit all the artboards only to it's own contents, maybe?

That is how fit to artwork bounds has always worked for me, one artboard at at time. Did you have a script maybe?

Only way I know is to select one letter at a time and use the command fir to selected art, and to repeat for each letter.
