Export Photoshop Layer Group into JPG file - Script

This JSX script of Exporting Photoshop Layer Groups to JPG - by Damien Vanholten is awesome...

#target photoshop function main(){ if(!documents.length) return; var doc = activeDocument; var oldPath = activeDocument.path; for(var a=0;a<doc .layerSets.length;a++){ activeDocument.activeLayer = activeDocument.layers.getByName(doc.layerSets[a].name); dupLayers(); activeDocument.mergeVisibleLayers(); activeDocument.trim(TrimType.TRANSPARENT,true,true,true,true); var saveFile= File(oldPath +"/"+doc.layerSets[a].name +".png"); SavePNG(saveFile); app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES); } } main(); function dupLayers() { var desc143 = new ActionDescriptor(); var ref73 = new ActionReference(); ref73.putClass( charIDToTypeID('Dcmn') ); desc143.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref73 ); desc143.putString( charIDToTypeID('Nm '), activeDocument.activeLayer.name ); var ref74 = new ActionReference(); ref74.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), charIDToTypeID('Ordn'), charIDToTypeID('Trgt') ); desc143.putReference( charIDToTypeID('Usng'), ref74 ); executeAction( charIDToTypeID('Mk '), desc143, DialogModes.NO ); }; function SavePNG(saveFile){ var pngOpts = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb; pngOpts.format = SaveDocumentType.PNG pngOpts.PNG8 = false; pngOpts.transparency = true; pngOpts.interlaced = false; pngOpts.quality = 100; activeDocument.exportDocument(new File(saveFile),ExportType.SAVEFORWEB,pngOpts); }

HOW TO RUN THE FILE
--- Save Script as Layer-Group-to-JPG.jsx (Extension is .JSX)
--- In Photoshop --> File --> Scripts --> Browse <--> select your .JSX FILE
---> IT DOES MAGIC, just like that
---> Check your PSD source folder for JPGs
