  • write excel file using extended js

    Posted by Loris Grifa on May 8, 2020 at 8:47 am

    Hello everyone,

    i’m stuked on a problem writing a PS script and i’m asking to you all for a suggestion.

    Basically i would like to store data on a excel file using the infos that are present on the photoshop file (ex. layers name) but i cannot find any code to comunicate to excel.

    Searching on the net i’ve realized that Ps is not able to comunicate with an excel document in a direct mode.

    Someone suggests to invoke VBscript inside the extended js, but i’m still having problem to understand how to do that…

    The script i’m writing produce and store multiples file, creating folder if necessary, and a would like to create a database of names for all the files that the script produce.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello,

    is it really necessary for you to create an Excel-file directly? Probably it would be sufficient to create a comma-separated file and open that in a spreadsheet program afterwards.

    Cheers
