On a regular basis I print multiple signs of different shapes and sizes on large 4'x9' sheets. All art needs to be at least .25" apart. I manually arrange the signs to best fit the sheet. Trying to figure out if there is a function that will automatically arrange all objects to a set artboard size. So far I haven't found anything other than the align functions. Attaching an example.

There are plugins and third party apps that can do it (do a Google search for "nesting plugin illustrator").

I know this is a bit old but I'm wondering what you settled on? I have a standing ask to automatically create product labels with different information, UL certifications, warnings, barcodes, etc. Because these are going on physical products we can't always use the same size label, but some of the elements are required by law to be of a certain size for readablilty while others could be resized to fit. Ideally we want to have a process read a spec sheet and then create the label with near 0 human interaction.
