Pure Genius

Thanks Adobe for making Illustrator scriptable! And thanks Ethan Wilde and Adobe Press for putting together such a compelling text on automating Illustrator. If you do anything in Illustrator regularly, this book is going to change your life. PC or Mac - it doesn't matter because the author has done the most amazing thing: He explains both scripting langauges side-by-side in the introduction, scriping tutorials, and examples in the book. I'm just glad that I use AppleScript 'cause it sure looks easier that Visual Basic!
