I built a script for importing files into artboards.
It can insert files as embedded
Download
You can find this script and my other plugins at UberPlugins.cc.
If you run into issues or have ideas/suggestions, feel free to message me:
Supported versions
- Photoshop CC 2015
- Photoshop CC 2015.5
- Photoshop CC 2017
It does not work in CC 2014 and earlier because those versions do not support artboards.
Installation
- Download the latest script version.
- Put the downloaded file (`*.jsx`) into the `Scripts` folder:
OS X: `/Applications/[Photoshop]/Presets/Scripts/`
Windows: `C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\[Photoshop]\\Presets\\Scripts\\` - Restart Photoshop if it is currently open.
- You should now see "Import to Artboards…" in `File -> Scripts`.
P.S. I also had a script for exporting artboards to PSD files, but Adobe added that functionality after CC 2015 updates, so it is no longer relevant.
