Do I need a script?

Hi, I have to import a bunch of small images, curiously enough from Excel, and save them individually as gifs. When doing this manually I copy the image in Excel, move to PSE, paste it in via File / New / Image from Clipboard, then Save for Web, and back to Excel for the next one. Can someone please tell me a way to automate this process, because I have a lot to do. In Excel I would write a macro to do it. Is there a scripting solution in PSE?
Thanks
Tim

Brilliant John!
I am using Workspace Macro, which does precisely what I want, and I can see ways of using it to do more elaborate things as well. Why are these programs so well-hidden? Having already had to become passingly familiar with HTML, CSS, Javascript, PSE, PHP and MySQL in order to create a website, I'm pleased I don't have to tackle a scripting language as well.
Thanks again.

I need a script, is it possible?

Hello all,
     I need a script that does the following.
I select an object in AI CS3 and then execute the script.
1st. The script takes the object and fills it with 100% magenta and makes it a spot color named CC.
2nd. The script then resizes the document to 1" larger than the selected object and centers all art in the middle of the art board,. (so if the object is 10.5" x 15.7" the document setup size is changed to 11.5" x 16.7")
3rd. The script then stores the size of the selected object and the new resize of the document setup on the clipboard. So if I paste into notepad it would paste "10.5 X 15.7 - 11.5 X 16.7"
That is it, it does not need to be exact on the pasting syntax but close if you know what I mean. This will be used in a production environment so a hot key to execute the script would be nice.
If I can get help with this it would be awesome, Please let me know if you can help.

Need java script 6.26 to use banking software keep getting "the connection was reset" error Java appears on addon blocked list

Need help - need a script

Hi All,
I have no knowledge of applescript and need something made to meet a deadline. I am a graphic artist for the national office of a non-profit with 400 agencies.
I need a script to control adobe illustrator to make customized logo packages for all of the agencies. I have 5 base documents. There are multiple logos per document. The text is set as "aaa" that needs to be customized. I am doing a find and replace to insert the text. Each file also has a 'tagline' layer that gets turned off and saved that way also.(a PNG) One master file gets saved as an illustrator PDF.
I need the script to ask me what the agency number is and also what the agency name is and make/name a new folder and then process the logos in illustrator saving the files in the new folder.
They needed to be completed yesterday, but it takes me roughly 10 to 15 minutes to do one agency. I have no time to work on them during the day a all so I am pretty deserate. We have no budget for this, but I am willing to pay $50 or so out of my own pocket(sorry... recently had twins so I'm broke too)
Please contact me at [email protected] if you could do this.

I need a script to invert the page order of selected pages for cs5.

Hello,
I am a graphic designer and i am trying to create a easier way to make multiple page folders, By using the multiple page size feature in inDesign CS5. But my problem is that i can create the front side of the folder easier than before, the backside is my problem I need to inverse the page order manual, this creates a lot of mistakes and errors along the way. Thats why I need a script to invert the page order of the pages I select. I hope to hear from someone soon.
My best regards,

I need a script that copies the filename into the file

I need a script that copies the filename into 4th column of each line in the text doc file.
I have over 2000 different file names each containing 6 columns and ~50-100 rows.
I can do this manually using this script:
awk '{print $1"\t"$2"t\"$3"\t <name> \t"$6}'
But I would like an automation command or script. Is there any command that I can use instead of <name> that will copy the filename into the column?
Thanks
Monica

Oops, I forgot the redirect to a file. It's not a good idea to edit files in place. A script could fail and you're left with at least one file ruined. It's better to create new files then delete the old files.
for file in *; do
    while read col1 col2 col3 col4 col5 col6; do
        printf "%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n" $col1 $col2 $col3 $file $col6
    done < $file > n$file
done
You could narrow the files listed such as
for file in *.tsv
and redirect the new files to another directory. Such as
done < $file > /absolute/path/to/directory/$file

Need a script to move files to folders

Hi guys. I have found a lot of similar threads but not something exactly like what I need.
I have a ton of files that need to be sorted into folders of the same name. I found scripts to help me with that however, I have some variations on the files with an extension to the file name that also need to be moved into the same folders.
For instance, I have a folder named....
spiegal_case_25_video_3
and I have the following files that all need to be moved into that folder....
spiegal_case_25_video_3.mp4
spiegal_case_25_video_3.webmsd.webm
spiegal_case_25_video_3_h.flv
spiegal_case_25_video_3_m.flv
spiegal_case_25_video_3_l.flv
I have found scripts to get me part of the way there but I can't get the FLVs into the folders because of the _h _m and _l extensions on the file names. Is there a way to move these files into their appropriate folders (maybe by ignoring the last 2 characters in the file name?)
I have also found a script that will read everything up to the underscore, but that won't help since the file names have multiple underscores. So I really need a script that can do the sorting while ignoring the last 2 characters in the file name.
Can anyone help me out? I'm not very script savvy.
Thanks!

I've tested the following script (under OS X 10.8.5) with 4 subfolders and 20 files, all located in a folder called "Master folder" located in a USB flash drive named "EXT_DRIVE". It seems to work flawlessly. In its present state, the script will replace any file already located in any of the subfolders.
set theMasterFolder to POSIX file "/Volumes/EXT_DRIVE/Master folder"
tell application "Finder"
    activate
    set theFolders to (folders of folder theMasterFolder) as alias list
    repeat with thisFolder in theFolders
        set thisName to name of thisFolder
        move (files of folder theMasterFolder whose name begins with thisName) to thisFolder with replacing
    end repeat
end tell

So my next question...........how do I add users to an existing In-Place hold?

I need a script that will find the computer a user last logged into.

I am still learning scripting, I need a script that will allow me to pull in usernames from a csv file. Find what computer they last logged into and output that to an csv file.
I have looked all over and can't find exactly what I need.
I found the following script but I need to add the resuitsize unlimited but can not figure out where to put it we have a large environment. Also I need to be able to grab username from a csv file. Any assistance you can provide is appreciated.
## Find out what computers a user is logged into on your domain by running the script
## and entering in the requested logon id for the user.
## This script requires the free Quest ActiveRoles Management Shell for Active Directory

# Retrieve Username to search for, error checks to make sure the username
# is not blank and that it exists in Active Directory
Function Get-Username {
$Global:Username = Read-Host "Enter username you want to search for"
if ($Username -eq $null){
Write-Host "Username cannot be blank, please re-enter username!!!!!"
Get-Username}
$UserCheck = Get-QADUser -SamAccountName $Username
if ($UserCheck -eq $null){
Write-Host "Invalid username, please verify this is the logon id for the account"
Get-Username}
get-username resultsize unlimited
$computers = Get-QADComputer | where {$_.accountisdisabled -eq $false}
foreach ($comp in $computers)
$Computer = $comp.Name
$ping = new-object System.Net.NetworkInformation.Ping
$Reply = $null
$Reply = $ping.send($Computer)
if($Reply.status -like 'Success'){
#Get explorer.exe processes
$proc = gwmi win32_process -computer $Computer -Filter "Name = 'explorer.exe'"
#Search collection of processes for username
ForEach ($p in $proc) {
$temp = ($p.GetOwner()).User
if ($temp -eq $Username){
write-host "$Username is logged on $Computer"

If you are querying by user "resultset size" will be of no use.
You also have functions that are never used and the body code doe snot look for users.
Here is what you scrip looks like if printed well. It is just a jumble of pasted together and unrelated items.

I suggest finding the original code then use the learning link at the top of this page to help you understand how it works in Powershell.

I need a script edited so it will enter the intiger a specified number.

This is a number generating script created by Michel Lemieux and posted here: http://www.quark.com/service/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4176 I need this script to ask for data that would specify the number of times each number should be added to the file. IE: the return data in the created file would look like this if 2 was entered: 1<\b>1<\b>2<\b>2<\b>3<\b>3<\b>4<\b>4<\b>

Hello
It is often easier to write a code anew than to edit an existing one...
Try somethnig like this. This will handle both integer and non-integer numbers for series along with your requirement on iteration count of each number.

Need ant script to compile, package, and deploy to Oracle AS 10.3.1

I have a test app with ADF faces/jsf for front-end and EJB 3.0 Session Facade/Entity beans for back-end. The project structure/layout is similar to the SRDEMO app in JDeveloper. I was able to compile, package, and deploy within JDeveloper 10g to Oracle AS 10g successfully. Is there a sample ant script to compile, package, and deploy to Oracle AS 10g that I can run from command line? The build.xml that came with SRDEMO only do the compilation, not packaging and deployment. I was able to modify the SRDEMO's build.xml to compile my test app though. I still need the script to package and deploy it.

Need a script to check the version of Office365 Pro Plus to push our office updates

I need a script that could check the version of office365 pro plus e.g ( 15.0.4711.1002) and if it doesn't exists on users machine than to deploy a latest version from a network location
I have an XML which works fine with downloading and even when deploying onto test machine but would not work on users which has an encrypted HDD and windows firewall turned on. the machine don't seem to pull the updates from Microsoft hence why wanted to
deploy the updates through a GPO start-up script
Currently the script would run the setup countless times without checking version and exiting the process if the version found. I hope the information given is adequate. Thanks

Frederik, After some tweaking and testing i was able to get it working, I haven't tested it via GPO as a startup script but standalone it is doing what i was after. I cant thank you enough for helping me on this as i had lost hope after days worth of intense
searching
Change that i had to apply ( space in a network path
was causing a "path not found error", Had to rename the "Office365 update" and update the path in Customconfig.xml or any other location that was pointing to "office365 update" )
set DeployServer=\\contoso\c2r\Office365 update\
REM Set ConfigFile to the configuration file to be used for
deployment (required)
set ConfigFile=\\contoso\c2r\Office365 update\Customconfig.xml
REM Set LogLocation to a central directory to collect script
log files (install log files are set in XML file).
set LogLocation=C:\AppData\Local\Temp
