The Illustrator Scripting Object Model
A good understanding of the Illustrator object model will improve your scripting abilities. The following
figure shows the containment hierarchy of the object model, starting with the
application object. Note
that the
layer and group item classes can contain nested objects of the same class which can, in turn,
contain additional nested objects.
In addition to this application-specific object model, JavaScript provides certain utility objects, such as the
File and Folder objects, which give you operating-system-independent access to the file system. For
details, see JavaScript Tools Guide.
