Hi Sam,

Use the below code to conver:

SPOT to PROCESS:

app.activeDocument.swatches.itemByRange(4,app.activeDocument.swatches.length-1).model = 1886548851;

PROCESS to SPOT:

app.activeDocument.swatches.itemByRange(4,app.activeDocument.swatches.length-1).model = 1936748404;

Thanks Ramkumar.

But I need to convert all the spot to process in InkManager not in the swatch pallete.

Is there any way to do this???

Sam try  the below code to do that:

app.activeDocument.inks.everyItem().convertToProcess = true;

Hi Sam,

Use below code:

var unusedcolor = app.activeDocument.unusedSwatches;

var unusedcolorlen = unusedcolor.length;

for (a = unusedcolorlen-1; a >= 0; a--)

{

unusedcolor.remove();

}

Cheers,

Shonky

try this Sam:

var mySW = app.activeDocument.unusedSwatches
for(i=mySW.length-1;i>=0;i--)
mySW.remove();
