Edit/Delete my custom PDF Export Presets...

Hello,

 

Just a simple how-to question, because even Google doesn't seem to be giving me sound answers on this.

 

How do I edit/delete my custom PDF Export presets? I tried to edit one of mine by creating a new one with the same name, but it ended up creating a new preset instead, and I know this is going to confuse me in the future. It is just the one I want to erase, not restore everything to default.

 

Thanks in advance.

Correct answer Peter Kahrel

What Roaring Mouse suggested, or go to File > Adobe PDF Presets, which opens a dialog in which you can delete presets.

Whoa! I was digging too deep! (That's what I get for being in Illustrator at the time I answered the question)

(I guess my mind was still in the time you couldn't edit an existing one)

D'oh.
