Nathaniel Kelso created a couple of really handy scripts to fit text boxes to their content. This might seem like a really basic problem, but these problems are usually the most annoying. There is a script for a text box’s Depth and a script for the text box’s Width. If you work with a bunch of typography in Illustrator I’m sure they will come in handy. Thanks to John Wundes for pointing it out. Download the script here (you need to scroll down a little ).
Major thankies for the blog article. Much obliged.
Hi this script sounds great. Anyone know how I make this work on a Mac?
Thanks in advance.
Good job.it was nice.i have well learn from here
Scripting is one of the important aspects and one can not forget to do right scripting. You provided a real good information thank you for sharing such nice information.
Its works only depth and not works for width in CS6
Please suggest.
This is great!!! Thanks a lot!!! Love it :o)
Love it!
IT sounds good but I don’t know how to add this script and couldn’t find in his (John) link how and where to add it.
Usually you add them to the scripts directory.
An example of a 64bit Windows would be:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS5.1\Presets\YOUR LANGUAGE\Scripts
You then run them from File>Scripts and select your script.
