Question

Beta Testers Needed

Hi, I have written a CEP extension for Adobe Illustrator and need 5-6 testers. Specifically I need testers for WINDOWS (I work on Mac). But it would be good to have 2-3 testers for both platforms. Please reply here if you can help. In exchange, I'll let you have a free copy of the extension.

The Extension : Ai Merge

Ai Merge allows you to select a folder of Ai, SVG, EPS, and/or PDF files and automates merging them into a single Ai file with each of the original individual files saved to its own layer and artboard. Obviously, because of Illustrator's 1,000 artboard limit the extension can only import up to 1,000 files. I have tested with 1,000 files and while JavaScript is slow and it takes a couple of minutes, it is still exponentially faster than doing the task manually.

You can watch a demo of the extension on my YouTube channel here : Ai Merge - Adobe Illustrator Extension - YouTube

My full channel is here : http://sketchandbuild.com (redirects to the long, ugly YouTube channel URL that you have to use until you hit 100 followers).

Thanks in advance and all feedback is welcome.

I watched your video on YouTube and it really sounds interesting.

Theoretically, I have some projects that would benefit from this.  And I might be encouraged to create more files that would work well with this too.

If you are willing to be a tester, I can provide the files needed to test and detailed instructions. I will give you a free copy of the finished product if you can help out.

Thanks!
