Two part question!

One, I am wanting to export a file I made at 8x10 and 4x6 inches. I wasn't sure if export for screens was the way to go, because I couldn't figure out how to keep my resolution at the specified sizes.

Two, is there a way to export these at the same time like in export for screens? I have quite a few files and don't want to waste my time making artboards in various sizes and then exporting them individually. Please help a college student save some very limited time, lol! Thank you!

Correct answer Monika Gause

Yes, they are all the same size. So would I use export for web for this? Exporting each size I want with the matching pixel size?

most probably that' s what I would do. But it would depend on the exact specifications of the job.

How many files?

what exactly needs to be output?

how many different sizes from one file?

what exactly is in the files?

what will I need to do with the files in the future, etc etc

Export for web will always export at 72 ppi. You could calcualte the pixel dimensions and then export what you need.

Export as will always export in the specified artboard sizes, but you can adjust the resolution to what you need.

Export for screens will set your resolution to 72 ppi when exporting at 1x. When exporting at higher dimensions, it will also adjust the resolution.

All of them are not ideal for what you need unfortunately.
