Is the capabilities of the Illustrator free trial limited?

I currently have the free trial and watching tutorials it seems like the tools they have I don't? Also when I try to play around with the Adobe stock images it seems I can not do anything with those either? I have only been messing around with AI a few days.

It's very likely that the YouTube videos you are watching are for an older version of Illustrator. So the Brushes, Swatches, and more might be different.

The functionality should be the same. Can you share some examples of what you are talking about?

I have been watching some tutorials on you tube just seems like I cant find the stuff they are using. That's why I was wondering if the trial just gives you limited access to some of the tools?

You should have access to all of the tools. I know that in the trial there is some limitation in the preferences but not tools or pallets. Would you be able to send a screen shot of the tutorial you watched? Maybe I can help you find the missing tools... I used Ai for screen printing on t-shirts

Talk to the print shop before you even create a file.

Ask them what exactly they need.

They might tell you to not trap your file, because actually every detail in trapping needs to be adjusted for the specific process. Most imporantly the amount of overlap.

It could also be that the videos you are watching are not showing you how to get to various Swatch and Brush Libraries that are being shown.

In each of the two panels, there's a Library popup menu in the lower-left corner (looks like books on a shelf).
