Moving Layers

Participant ,
Mar 24, 2020 Mar 24, 2020

Hi all!  Hope you are all staying safe during this crazy time!

 

How do I move multiple layers from one Illustrator file into another Illustrator tab?  We are doing stickers and I am changing the size of the artboard.  I want to transfer the work I have already done into the new sized art board.  I have alread save a ton of our working files as EPS for our printer.

 

I usually work in PS, so Illustrator

"it pasted something that I had previously copied"

How do you select what you want to copy and how do you copy?
