How to create .csh group from illustrator

Interesting question for you folks. Can I create a file in illustrator with several different shapes and then save as or export to a .csh file to import into photoshop? Doing it one by one is time consuming. Same question about creating files to be brushes for phothshop.

Thanks,
Alex

Copy them from Illustrator

Create a new canvas in Photoshop to hold them all
Paste them as Paths to different layers or separate them by layers etc.

Then use the Direct Select tool - right click and Define Custom Shape.

As far as I know CSH files are unique to Photoshop - you can create them in Photoshop - but I don’t know of any other program that can create them.

It’s possible maybe to write a script that does this
Copies your selection from Illustrator
Pastes each to a new layer in photoshop as paths
selects each and path on each layer
then define a new Custom Shape

Perhaps…
