Installation Instructions
Topics
These instructions explain the steps to install Scriptographer on Mac and PC.

1. Make sure a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is installed on your system. MacOS X already includes Java out of the box. On Windows, you need to make sure a JRE is installed. If there is none, download Java SE 5.0 from http://java.sun.com/ or a similar JRE and install it first.

Mac users please note that at the moment, Scriptographer only runs on native PowerPC Macs, not the new Intel ones, as Rosetta cannot run Java inside emulated applications.

2. Download the Scriptographer plugin here.

3. Unzip the downloaded Scriptographer archive and place the whole Scriptographer folder in Illustrator's Plug-ins directory.



4. Start Illustrator. You should now see a new entry in the Window menu, that opens the main Scriptographer palette window.



5. Optionally, you can move the scripts folder from the Scriptographer folder to a different location, e.g. where you keep the personal documents. After you moved the folder, click on the arrow in top right corner of the palette window, then select "Set Script Directory".



6. Now you're all set. You may want to read further about how to use the included scripts now.

I have a simlar problem on my Mac. I am using Illustrator CS2. After downloading Scriptographer and putting it in the Plug-Ins folder, I tried to open Illustrator, but it crashed 3 times, saying "Cannot create Java VM" and "Cannot Create Scriptographer Engine." I reset my computer, but Illustrator still crashed twice after that. Am I doing something wrong?

Intel Mac / CS 1??
From:  Andrew J

Yes I know it sounds weird, but I work at a very poor publication and we haven't been able to upgrade (CS 4 comes out this fall!) but is there any way to get Scripto to work on an Intel Mac running Illo CS 1?

Tried the old verison. Tried the CS3 version for Intels, tried the normal. All of them break Illustrator. Booooo!

Any help?

Fenster Scriptographer
From:  Katharina

Ich hab versucht Scriptographer zu installieren und es sah auch sehr vielversprechend aus, aber dann hab ich das Fenster weggeklickt … und jetzt kann ich es nicht mehr öffnen, weil es bei Fenster nicht mehr aufgelistet wird. Ich hab das plug in schon komplett gelöscht und wieder neu eingerichtet … das Fenster öffnet sich trotzdem nicht mehr!

Hat jemand einen Tipp?
