Have you tried GIFStudio, the extension for creating animated GIF Files with Illustrator?

[Loic.Aigon]

Hi everyone,

If you ever come to create animated GIF files with Illustrator, you probably entered the Illustrator to Photoshop workflow and noticed that it was a bit tedious. This is why I created GIFStudio, an extension that let you create, set up, preview, and export animated files out of Illustrator.

For example, it's easy to animate a fixed image like this one:

Here is the fixed imageand get this result:

Animated file

The extension is more detailed at Scriptopedia.

Let me know what you think 😉

Hi, I bought this plug in. I am having an issue with it putting an outline/stroke around the gif object I am exporting. The  "use transparent backround" option is checked but it still has an outline around it and I cannot figure out how to export it without it no matter what I do. And just to clarify, the object itself does not have one, so I am not sure why the outline happens when I use GIFStudio (V1.2.19) to create a gif...

Can you show a screenshot?

How did you create the object itself?
