I get a surprising (to me) amount of email about this script, much of which I haven't found the time to answer. Based on version 1.0.0.8 of the script which came with Photoshop CS3. ZStrings and auto layout by Tom Ruark History 3rd June 2007 Here is the original copyright and credits for the script:Ĭopyright 2007.
I figure these changes may be useful to other people but it's still their script and I hope Adobe don't mind me sharing my version of the script here. The original version of the script is not changed so you can go back to it if you find a problem in my modified version. On Windows the folder is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\Presets\Scripts. You can also copy the script to your scripts folder so that it appears in the Scripts menu directly the next time you start Photoshop. To run the script, first extract the Export Layers To Files - (Fast PNG version).jsx file from the zip to somewhere sensible and then, in Photoshop, select File -> Scripts -> Browse.

I don't know if it will work in older versions of Photoshop. I have only tested the script in Photoshop CS3 on Windows but it should work with the OS X version as well. If I get time I'll see if it's worth adding a "fast mode" to the CS4 script or if such modifications are no longer needed. So, if you have CS4, try the official script first. I have not had a chance to look at it much yet but it looks better than my version of the CS3 script. Photoshop CS4 users: CS4 comes with an updated version of the original script which adds PNG support. Ultimately just going to flatten and resave each file then thisĭoesn't matter and saves you a huge amount of time. Saving to an image format which supports layers, but if you are Means the resultant files may contain unwanted hidden layers, if Turning on the Fast ModeĬauses the script to hide, but not erase, the unwanted layers. Slow (it runs in O(n^2) time instead of O(n)). Only the desired layer is saved but it also makes the script really Normally the script duplicates the document for each layer and removesĪll other layers before saving the duplicated document. Which, when turned on, causes the script to export the layers in a much, There is a new "Fast Mode (Don't remove hidden layers)" checkbox It is strange that this was left out of the original script.
I have taken the version of this script that comes with Photoshop CS3 and modified it to add two new features:
In a recent version of Photoshop you could find this under File -> Scripts. Photoshop: Export Layers to Files (Fast PNG version)Īdobe Photoshop comes with a script called "Export Layers to Files" which saves each layer in the current document to a separate file.
