You can also create new RasterItems by copying and pasting an existing RasterItem. Note that it is not necessary to set the type of the ContentVariable before binding. Example 70.1 This example illustrates how to create a new RasterItem in the frontmost document. The script assumes that you have a file called "c:\temp\sample.jpg". Dim appRef As New Illustrator.Application Dim newRasterArt As Illustrator.RasterItem Set newRasterArt = appRef.ActiveDocument.RasterItems.Add newRasterArt.File = "C:\temp\sample.jpg" 12 Aug 03
