How Select All Photo Images into a Javascript Variable Suitable for Iteration Over the Collection?

[Plane Wryter]

In Javascript, how can all photo images contained in an Illustator .AI file--regardless of whether they are on an Artboard or scattered around the Canvas--be programmatically selected and included in a JS variable suitable for iterating over the entire collection?

• A code snippet would be MOST APPRECIATED!

Many thanks in advance!

Try the following, it will alert the filepath of each placeditem in the currently active AI file

var pi = app.documents[0].placedItems
for(var i = 0; i < pi.length; i++)
{
	alert(pi[i].file)
}
