Automating breaking a text object to multiple simple line text blocks


Recommended Posts

I use VW for my own graphics, marketing and typographic work. One thing I do often is bring in a block of text and then manually break it up into single pieces of text so I can treat each piece of text differently. Has anyone worked out how to automate this? so I can bring in for instance a twenty line block of text, run a script, and it produces 20 individual text objects – one text object for each line of text in the original text block

 

For instance right now I'm looking at assembling a pseudo wordcloud from about 20 words (so I don't have a text corpus,  I'm making it purely on a graphic art basis).

I am on VW2018, Windows.
