You will need to read up from the ExtendScript Tool KIt Guide… Opening/reading of files is covered in that.  And the latter sections of which are… Should help you…

Ahhh, I was looking in the wrong place: The Illustrator Javascript Reference manual.

No all the app guides are specific to the app's DOM they contain nothing of JavaScript base/core syntax it's just expected to have gotten that elsewhere the Extended features of the Toolkit have a guide of there own… You should use this in addition to any suite app you are scripting… You also have the OMV object model veiwer… Under help from the toolkit… It should be installed as part of the suite but you can get it from the dev centre if not…
