Hi!

 

A bit new to Illustrator. I'm wondering why this logo is not centered to the bounding box? I would like the logo to be centered with the artboard, but am unable to propelry do so since it's positioned in the bottom right corner of the bounding box - screenshot below. 

 

Correct answer SJRiegel

Maybe this is a clipping path - What does this look like in your Layers Panel (expanded) ?

Do a command Y to go into outline mode. Looks like you have a stray object here.

You can drag a frame with the hollow arrow tool around that area to delete, that form the group.

 

Comamnd Y to go back into preview mode.

Tried that, this is what happens. I'm not seeing anything in that area.

There may be a loose single point grouped with your logo.

Try Object > Path > Clean Up

Choose the Stray Points checkbox and click OK.

Drat, it said no cleanup necessary.
