Illustrator Crashing when Exporting Multiple Art Boards as EPS

Question

Half of my team has had this issue in the past year. We have particular files that have 128+ artboards, and Illustrator crashes when you attempt to export even 3 at a time off of these big files. Most computers in the office acheive this just fine, but 3 of our computers always crash when attempting this.

We are all up to date on updates (both computer systems and Adobe) and the files are exactly the same between computers. We work on Mac Minis if that makes any difference. There is no correlation between storage space or year/make of computer.

Is this just a software difference? I'm hoping that we have some setting somewhere checked and need to uncheck it.

Hello @sadie_5269,I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind trying the suggestions shared in this help article (https://adobe.ly/4oMHhre) and checking if it helps? Also, if you are accessing the files from a removable/network drive or a cloud-synced folder like Dropbox, try moving the file to a folder on the internal hard drive and then try exporting from it to see if it helps.Looking forward to hearing from you.Anubhav
