Yes, in the original question a problem was mentioned to "fit the artboard to the selected art". That seems to be a problem accessing with multiple screens. Your problem is getting to the print presets and that is indeed a (different) problem.

InDesign has a toggle for transparent background when placing files.
Place any file into an InDesign document an use Show Options (or hold down the Shift key when placing).
This will give you a dialog box with a checkbox for Transparent Background.
Once turned on it stays on, also for objects placed from a CC Library.

@aweber I first thought it was a Library issue, but then realized that InDesign has a toggle for transparent background when placing files.

You may want to experiment with multiple different Variable Width Profiles for the Stroke and apply Roughen Effects to them.
Save them as Graphic Styles.

Yes, drag and drop does not seem working currently. I installed an older Photoshop version and it worked.
Placing is the workaround.
It may be a blessing that drag and drop does not work, it can ruin your document color profile and change the appearance of colors.

Good to hear that helped, Kim.
I have seen it mentioned before, but since I have no second monitor attached, I did not see the problem.
You may want to mention it here where the Illustrator developers watch for problems:

As you see there are many components in a color managed workflow.
In your Color Settings it is mentioned that your settings are not synchronized across applications.
The easiest way to synchronize them is to go to Color Settings in Bridge.

The display is always RGB, what I meant was the Display profile, which looks like it is:
H7606WI_1002_834C415D_CMDEF.icm
Can you try to switch it to sRGB?

I am not sure what I am looking at.
It looks like you have opened a Photoshop file and dragged another image into it. Your second image shows Isolation mode.
It would have been better to first create an Illustrator file and use the Place command to add the images.

You cannot know how exactly it will look if they print it in a print shop or at home, they may use different paper, inks. The only thing you can do is give a standard sRGB document.

If the Illustrator document profile is sRGB than it should be no problem to either embed or not. sRGB is what most printers expect. It is best to create new documents based on an RGB profile, CMYK documents converted to RGB by selecting File > Document Color Mode > RGB will have RGB swatches that are converted CMYK swatches.
They still have CMYK names and the colors are not full RGB colors. A red will still be named CMYK Red and the RGB color will be something like R:226 G:6 B:19 instead of RGB Red R:255 G:0 B:0.
So for your existing artwork it is better to start in RGB and for your existing CMYK it is better to copy into an new RGB file and correct the blacks.
