How to run scripts

Variant 1 — Install

1. Download archive and unzip. All scripts are in the folder jsx
2. Place <script_name>.jsx in the Illustrator Scripts folder:
   • OS X: /Applications/Adobe Illustrator [vers.]/Presets.localized/en_GB/Scripts
   • Windows (32 bit): C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator [vers.]\Presets\en_GB\Scripts\
   • Windows (64 bit): C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator [vers.] (64 Bit)\Presets\en_GB\Scripts\
   • RU lang: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator [версия]\Стили\ru_RU\Сценарии\
3. Restart Illustrator

Variant 2 — Drag & Drop

Drag and drop the script file (JS or JSX) into Adobe Illustrator Window

Variant 3 — Use extensions

I recommend the Scripshon Trees or LAScripts panel. In it you can specify which folder your script files are stored in.
