Image map in Illustrator

[dpegasus]

I'm trying to overlay region boxes on top of an image. To do this I need the top left coordinate of the regions and the height and width of the regions. Is there a way to get Illustrator to output a text file of these values for multiple regions on the same image if the regions were created in Illustrator?

I think you may have to post a screen grab of what you are tying to do here…

Each of the opaque boxes is an overlay region. I know that I can get the pixel height and width, and the upper left corner location individually but can I get Illustrator to create a text file for all of the regions for all of the values. I'm going to use the text file for a page generation program.

Yeah, I did this not too long ago for web stuff… Pretty straight forward…

Soooo how did you do it? I can't seem to figure it out, even using scripts.

Thanks!

I've done several variations of this in the past… Im sure I can dig one out and adapt to your needs… ( cut it down ) does the output need to be formatted in any particular way? Most people do for HTML5 and such…
