Arrange multiple objects with their respective artboards all at once

[Fasih K.]

Hi,

I have an object that has been placed on different artboards at the same position (with different colors and font size). Now for some reason I need to reposition that object's multiple instances with respect to their individual artboards. I cannot find this functionality in Illustrator's 28.0.

The only way I can do is by manual adjustment for every artboard.

If there is technique to make this operation faster , please help!

You say instances, so is it a symbol?

If not, is it at least grouped?

Then you could try Global edit.

No, by instances I mean copies.

And those are grouped? So can you use Global edit or not?

Sounds like Object menu > Transform > Transform Each may also help.
