Hi Community,

 

I want to know the different ways to save my designs in Adobe Illustrator.

I need to save my work in three different sized image files.. could be .PNG or .JPEG.. whatever works! 1080px by 1080px at a 1:1 aspect ratio, 1080px by 566px, with an aspect ratio of 1.91:1, 1080px by 1350px with a 4:5 aspect ratio.

Hi there,

 

Thank you for reaching out. In addition to the suggestion share above, you may try the following workflows:

  1.  Creating an Artboard of three dimensions and copy-paste the content. Then, resize and export it to PNG or JPEG.
  2.  Create multiple Artboards with different dimensions within the document. You can change the Artboard dimensions using the following methods:

    1st Method:
    - Select the Artboard you want to resize on the Artboard panel.

Are you trying to export out a single piece of artwork at 3 different aspect ratios?

 

Does the artwork need to extend to the edge of the image for each aspect ratio? If so, you might want to copy and adjust the artwork to two additional Artboards. Then export out images for each of the Artboards.

I've learned how to export with additional Artboards.

 

This will be useful as I grow however, I want my artwork to not extend to the edge of the image.

best solution is to create 3 artboards with spectific sizes you want.

 

we can export assets with diffferent sizes but the same aspect ratio.

 

drag your artwork to assets panel and check the scales

I've exported 3 .PNG files with this method. 

 

The only problem now is exporting a .PNG without my design extending to the edge.

 

I like how I can now choose different sizes during my export step

Correct answers about size/aspect ratios already given, I'd want to remind you that for those you aren't "saving" your work, you're exporting it. Your working project file should be saved in Illustrator's native .ai format.

    -  A window will pop up. That’s the Artboard Options window. Change the Width and Height values accordingly.

    2nd Method:
    When you click on the Artboard tool, you can change the artboard size from the Artboard panel under Properties.

    Step 1: Click on the Artboard tool in the toolbar.

I tried the second workflow you suggested.

 

It worked! I can export a .PNG without my artwork fitting to the bounds of the artboard.
