How do you provide information about itemNumer, itemName and customerFolder right now? If i am right you go to save as, then you type in name of the folder, and then type in name of the file. And you are doing it for folder, and filename. You have to click save as 2 times,  once for ai, once for pdf, and more if any other files are saved. With a script you can type those once, and it will create folder, and save all the files with correct names. It can be one prompt / window, it doesn't have to be a standard prompt. Using ScriptUI as Doug A Roberts​ suggested will easily handle this. ... View more

You could use simple for loop like the one below (not tested, but even though it should point you the idea) Also you are comparing dropdownlist.selection which should be dropdownlist.selection.text. for (var i = 0; i < 8; i++) {   if(WD.selection.text == wndNames)   for(var j = 1; j < 9; j++) {     if( j != i+1) {       app.activeDocument.pageItems.getByName("Wind" + j ).remove();     }   } } ...

Hello, below code updated with features you've requested Checking if _media folder exists, if no it's created. Corrected naming of the files. Now saving files as proper .jpg using exportForScreens function (it's compatible with CC2018 and up due to this) It also creates subfolder 150ppi, so there is added moving those files to the parent _media folder.
