Hi!I have 400 artboards that need to be saved separately as PDFs — so there should be 400 files, each containing one artboard.Is there a feature in Illustrator similar to “Export for Screens”, but where the output files are in CMYK and each artboard is saved separately?

Hello Community! I am looking for a way to generate textboxes on top of paths that contain fill color information:- Hex (probably not possible?)- CMYK values- RGB values. Ideally you would select paths on your artboard, run the script and text boxes would be generated as such: This script comes close, but does it for swatches in the document. However, I need it for the fill color for paths already on the artboard:http://fashionclassroom.com/blog/handy-illustrator-script-for-printing-out-color-chipshttps://github.com/johnwun/js4ai/blob/master/renderSwatchLegend.jsxAlso here is some discussion that touches on the subject: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:fLUn9JnVfDkJ:https://forums.adobe.com/thread/623432+&cd=8&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us Any help would be greatly appreciated! Best regards,Martin

Is there an Illustrator equivalent for InDesign's doc.selection.storeSelection() or app.selection.store() functionality?"

I have written small test case with few insights about optimizing script speeds and thought it might be interesting. Also, you are welcome to use my code to find optimisations. Or maybe you want to share your insights?  article is here:https://medium.com/@gontis/extendscript-performance-tips-9b5315697e9f

I'm unable to enable GPU Preview on this particular file.... I've tried each and every method to prevent this from happening.... Like, Copying the data and pasting it into a new Illustrator file, Restarting the windows, Checking the RAM etc.....I just can't help it now..... All the things are gone... They are in outline view....

Hello everyone.I'm currently using the Variable Importer 8 script.Does anyone know if i can use a SVG file for the image variable?When i select the prepend image path in the log it says the image is missing even though it's there.The script seems pretty complex to me but maybe someone can adjust it to add SVG as compatible format. Here's the script: https://github.com/Silly-V/Adobe-Illustrator/blob/master/Variable%20Importer/VariableImporter.jsx Thanks in advance to everyone willing to help me!Cheers!

Recieved client artwork/pattern. There are these two "handles" on the top and bottom and it allows me to modify the pattern directly on the artboard without having to go inside the pattern and mess with the settings. What are these and where can I find them/turn them on when it comes to my own patterns, in the future? Please see attached screenshot.

Hello communityI have an issue regarding exporting each artboard separately for animations in After effects. The Artboard's suffix after export was from 1-x, depending on artboard's position in artboard tab. Now it exports just with the names of the artboard. It really makes it difficult to orientate when I import them into After effects. Ive included screenshots how it was before and now      Thank you very much  

Estoy usando para un trabajo la fuente Neutronic, de Adobe Fonts. Neutronic | Adobe Fonts Solia tener el error de que cada vez q reiniciaba la compu esta fuente no era reconocida por el programa, como si no estuviese instalada, cuando en adobe creative cloud aparecia como instalada. Este tediosos problema podia solucionarlo desinstalando la fuente y volviendola a instalar nuevamente. Ahora tengo un nuevo problema: Cuando intento guardar mi archivo, el cual contiene esta fuente, aparece un error desconocido que me lleva a esta pagina Solucionar un problema de error desconocido en Illustrator con soluciones alternativasLa pagina recomienda expandir a formas el texto, pero como es un texto que debo constantemente ir modificando no me parece la mejor solucion. Alguna ayuda al respecto?

Im not sure if theres anything wrong with my file. It looks fine on outline mode, but the lines seem a bit wobbly and I really need to get the file to work. the printing area doesn't accept having mistakes on the file so although it may be difficult to analyze whats wrong, I just wanted more opinions. Thanks! 

When opened from the aic cloud, some bitmaps connected from the CC library display, print, and export with poor quality. If you open the file and paste this image, it will look fine, but as soon as you close and open the file, it takes on the same appearance. When downloading ai and opening a local file, there is no problem. The screenshot shows the same image. What was on top of the file before opening, what was just inserted at the bottom.

Hi everyone!I'm working on a design where I need to continue a series of curved lines in the same direction to fill a shape evenly. The lines follow a smooth, wave-like pattern and I want to maintain consistent spacing and curvature as I extend them.My main challenge is figuring out the correct angle or curvature for each new line so the pattern stays visually consistent. Is there a way to measure or replicate the angle of existing curved lines in Illustrator? Or a technique/tool that helps automate this?Thank you!  

Wir arbeiten seit über 15 Jahren professionell mit Illustrator und anderen Adobe-Programmen.Seit CC 2025 beobachten wir massive Probleme im Produktionsalltag:1.     Fonts werden automatisch ersetzt, sobald Illustrator eine Schrift nicht lokal findet.o   Statt einer klaren Warnung (wie früher in InDesign) greift Illustrator ungefragt auf Adobe Fonts oder ähnliche Systemschriften zurück.o   Das führt zu Layoutverschiebungen, falschem Kerning und im schlimmsten Fall zerstörten Druckdaten.2.     Deaktivierte Adobe Fonts springen wieder an.Selbst wenn man in der Creative Cloud App „Schriften aktivieren“ ausschaltet, sind am nächsten Tag die Cloud-Fonts wieder aktiv.3.     Nutzung auf zwei Rechnern (z. B. Studio + Homeoffice):Seit September 2025 muss man sich jedes Mal auf einem Gerät abmelden, um am anderen arbeiten zu können. Das ist im Alltag schlicht unpraktikabel.Wir sind seit 15 Jahren treue Adobe-Kunden, a

Just as one would select a font that's 5pt and perform the operation "Select > Same > Font size" to change them to 6 pt, is it possible to select a range of sizes, as in "5.001pt - 5.999pt" and change all those to 6 pt?I work on many technical figures with lots of numbers, and manual scaling that's been done before they reach my desk often results in lots of odd font sizes that differ by decimal points. So selecting by font size, as it works currently in the menu, is tedious since they will likely no be all the same. But the numbers are close. Or is there another way to look at this problem? Thank you!

For years (and years), I’ve been hitting Command+K to bring up Preferences and immediately change the keyboard increment. The input box for keyboard increment used to be auto-selected, allowing me to type a new value without any extra clicks. In the just-installed version 29.7, Command+K still opens Preferences, but now it auto-selects the search input instead. Is there any way to restore the old behaviour? Personally, I use search only occasionally, whereas I change the keyboard increment multiple times a day. This change feels like a step backwards in terms of productivity.

I can't zoom, move my screen, or even go into outline mode no text show up when im trying to write either. Can someone help. I did recently update my graphics card.

Hola! no puedo visualizar los archivos como png, me aparecen con fondo blanco. No me pasaba, empezó a pasarme hoy. Toque varias ajustes,  y nada

I cannot move any items in Illustrator using the mouse to drag the items, I can only move them using the arrow keys. Even if I open up a new document and place in a new object, I cannot open it, so it is not a problem specific to my file. None of my objects are locked. I do not have any hidden dialouges. I've already tried restarting Illustrator, resetting my preferences, etc. None of it works.   This has happened several times in the last few months and so I'm wondering if it's a bug?   I'm using the latest version of Illustrator as of 2/26/2020: Illustrator 24.02 Using Windows 10.   {Renamed by MOD}

I prepared a few small logos and tried to export it (as usual) using Export for Screens workflow. I went over to artboards, click Export and this is what I get.What's wrong? I even flattened the file, removed Symbols, and still nothing. Anyone?Illustrator 29.6.1.  Thank you very much in advance!
