  Script – eps to png – delete objects outside artboard AND crop to artwork

  Posted by Giacomo Bompan on September 17, 2012 at 8:53 pm

  hello everyone,

  I need to convert thousands (!) of .eps’s to .png’s and I have found a script that does the work well.

  ( it’s this one: https://forums.adobe.com/message/4052650 )

  Problem is that all my .eps have a tag outside the artboard and when i run the following command:

  pngExportOpts.artBoardClipping = true;

  it cuts out the tag but it obviously keeps the whole artboard space with the file, while I want it to be cropped right around the artwork.

  Question is:

  Is there a simple command that sums to the previous one (inside the same script!) telling AI to crop to artwork after it got rid of all the stuff placed outside the artboard?

  I hope I could explain myself.

  Thank you very much in advance for reading 🙂

  P.B.
