Select Text By Size
Hi All,
I was just asked by user Seth if it was possible to write a script that would select text by a given size in Adobe Illustrator.
So I now present to you, my newly added script "selectTextBySize." Honestly, I'm not sure why I didn't write this years ago... I would assume that I didn't because someone else had already written something similar. In any case, now you have my version...
This simple script just scours the current open document and selects all text of a given pixel size.
The default behavior of the script is to unlock text and layers if the correct sized text is locked or hidden.
This behavior can be changed by swapping the variables at the top of the script.
Hope you find this useful.
Update 3/19/14:
Just added range selection so you can grab text between, for example, 5px and 25px, or whatever...
cheers,
-J
