Create a document and select the script, that's it.

The easiest way is by using a script:

Absolutely no idea how to run scripts in illu... they seem hard to me. Cant i do the spiral in some "manual" way?

It is very easy to use scripts.

Download the script.

With your document open select: File > Scripts > Other Script and browse to the location of the script.

Select the script and click Open.

You can open the script in a text editor to change some parameters.

If you want the script to always appear in the Illustrator File > Scripts menu, put the script in the Illustrator application folder > Presets > Your language folder > Scripts
