Sort links by Size

With the ability to sort linked & embedded files by size in ascending or descending order, organizing your assets has never been easier. Learn more about this feature and elevate your link management.

Illustrator now ensures an uninterrupted workflow by preserving the relative locations of linked files when moving documents between folders or systems. Experience hassle-free migration, keeping everything intact without any broken links. Learn more about this feature and simplify your file management process effortlessly.

Thank you Anshul_Saini

I need help with this issue: I can't see the "Search for missing links in this folder" option in Adobe Illustrator. I'm sure I updated to version 28.05 via Adobe Creative Cloud. What can I do?
