delete invisible elements illustrator B/W objects

[ireneusz.budzowski]

Hello community. Can You help me with simple script because action list don`t have options that I need.

I work with black and white project. Separation from project.

What I need is set of actions:

1 Select all elements

2 path finder DIVIDE

3 delete all white elements

4 delete all empty elements

5 delete bitmaps if there are any

In the end i get clean project.

Thank YOU.

Probably doable with an action.

Can you share at least one sample Illustrator file (.ai), so one may have a look at it?

Sample file.

I stuck with find bitmaps.

If selecting all embedded raster images is the only missing step that prevents your action from working, I would recommend to install Rick Johnson's "Select" plugin. It adds many useful items to Illustrator's Select menu commands. One of them will select raster images.

Those additional commands can be fully incorporated into any existing action.

There are other ways, but I think it is the most straightforward one.
