Data Set Not saving out multiple PDF files

[Bryan5F8B]

I have created a Data Set and when batch saving I can only make the files overwrite themselves and end up with only 1 PDF when I should have 19.  I set up a Action to Save and then choose Batch with Source Data Sets, Destination NONE and File Name: Data Set Name.  I am able to togle through each of the 19 items but I am confused as to what I could be doing wrong that the file overrides itself when saving???

when you write an action that saves a file, it saves the explicit instructions you gave for saving that file, including the file name.

to batch save files like this, you need to use a script.

No, Dilliam, you do not necessarily use a script to do it.

Bryan, can you share a sample Illustrator file?

Also, which version of Illustrator are you using?

I think there is a bug in the version of Illustrator I am using.  Version is 24.1.1. I had someone else try the file in a NEWER version and it worked.  Thank You Kurt for looking into this!

Hi Bryan in which version did it work? I am using version 25.4 and it is not working. How frustrating.

Update: I reverted back to version 24.3 and it is working now. This seems to be a bug, so I reported it. Please vote it up, so it can get fixed. https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/43880730-action...
