Open up Asset Export (Window>Asset Export). You can also do this for multiple objects at a time, which sounds like it would be very useful in your situation. You can also choose other setting like the save location or scaling if you would like. Select the object(or multiple items if you want a combination saved in one PNG), then go File>Export Selection…Make sure “Assets” is selected at the top of the window and not “Artboards”, then choose PNG in the format window. If so then I hope this helps! If not then I guess I’ll just leave this answer here in case someone with a different version of illustrator stumbles along this question with the same needs
Not sure if that version has “Export Selection” or not. It needs something clever beyond the scope of this answer.Įdit I just realized that the question was phrased within the context of CS6 version of Illustrator. I'm afraid the shown methods will not be a great help if you must extract hundreds of items as separate PNGs. If you paste an Illustrator object as pixels to an already opened image in Photoshop you can stretch the dimensions of the object with no quality loss as long as you have not nailed the pasting finally by hitting enter. Using Photoshop: If you have cut an object to the clipboard and open a new image in Photoshop you get an option to accept exactly the same pixel dimensions as the object had in Illustrator. You can make selections in the layers panel. There's no need to drag it to the other window, you can as well copy & paste. The objects in the original drawing can overlap with no harm if you can select every object separately. The PNG has nothing extra when it's opened in Photoshop: I dragged the red object to the empty drawing and exported the drawing as PNG.
In the other window in the right I had an empty drawing. In the left I have in Illustrator a "drawing" which contains three objects. I can combine these two scripts into one (select objects, make artboards for them and export all these artboards with names like 1.png, 2.png, 3.png.) but I see no much sense.

If you have many objects and you need to export them all, you need to decide how to handle with file names. The export can be done with a script as well.įor example this script (based on this example) will save a selected object to 'd:/1.png': if () While (s-) (sel.visibleBounds) Īnd then to export all the artboards to PNGs as usual. You can make artboards for all selected objects with this script: var sel = app.selection
