Illustrator :: How To Copy Column Grid To Multiple Artboards
Aug 9, 2012
1) I am working with a 960 px website grid from
[URL]
they have an Illustrator file very useful to work with columns and grids. Howerver i cannot manage to paste the pink grid and columns to the next Artboard. I unlocked but that is not the solution. It seems the column grid is made from something else like a Path.
2) By the way, InDesign has a very cool feature named "Paste in Place" which will paste any object to next page in the exact position. Does Illustrator has something like that?

How can you make the artboards line up to the grid? each of my boards is not quite set the same on the grid so trying to place items in the same position from one board to the next is hard.

I´m aware that Illustrator doesn´t have multiple artboards options for JPG as it does with eps, or other formats, but is there any workaround for this? Looping current artboard and exporting them to JPG or something. Or maybe there is someway to force the "save multiple artboards:true" in JPG?
export document currentDoc to file exportFolder as JPEG with options ¬
{class:JPEG export options ¬
, quality:100 ¬
, artboard clipping:true ¬
, artboard range:1 - 2 ¬
, save multiple artboards:true}

The document I am working on has two artboards (front and back of a document) and I am trying to center some text on the artboard. The issue that I am having is that when I try to align something to center on the first artboard (the left one) it moves it off that board and aligns center on the 2nd artboard (the right one).
I have about 10 other files with this same set up (two artboards, multiple text boxes) and have never had an issue with alignment. As long as "align to artboard" is selected Illustrator never moves the text box to the other artboard to align it.

I've got a large Illustrator file with five artboards, my client asked for seperate PDF's of each artboard which is what I'm used to, but they've also asked for a PDF that shows all the artboards at the same time (basically looking like it does from the file I'm working on). I've trawled the settings and the web but to no avail. I've tried printing to PDF from the print menu but the only printer is Adobe Postscript File; whereas online people can select PDF from the menu settings. Am I missing something here?

I am working on a walldesign, it will be printed as 3 pages. See attached file below.I am using the artboards for aligning the background to match bleed and content correctly.Below i used a .tif file as background that covers all area, Then i save PDF on each artboard,I turn off Keep illustrator edit and Acrobat 5 (PDF 1.4). All three pdfs seem to work, they open in Acrobat.But doing it this way might corrupt the pdf?
If I import the pdf in photoshop it will give me RAM error. I have 64 gb ram in x64 enviroment so that should not happen when the PDF is only 10 mb? On a similiar project the printers also had trouble placing the pdf in their printing system also complaining on RAM? Or error on "Cant rasterize the image".
If i make 3 smaller backgrounds and remove all artboards and only have 1 for each part, then the above error don't occur and everything is fine. So i guess its either multiple artboards or that the background is to large in someway or is kept outside the trimarea in the pdf so it stays huge. I thought everything outside the cutting area would be cropped away if I save without illustrator edit. The pdf size seem to tell me that it has cropped everything outside. But the ram error will occur :

so when I print multiple artboards only the first artboard prints correctly and the rest don't get rotated to fit the media so art falls off the page.
it all shows up fine in the preview. this only happens when printing multiple pages, if I print 1 at a time without changing settings it prints fine. this also only happens in illustrator cs6. I have cs4 installed and it prints fine.

I'm currently on CS6 but I'm looking for a solution that can also work on CS5 for a co-worker.
Having multiple artboards has been established since CS4 and I have yet to see an official way of resizing multiple artboards, if anything there should at least be a plug-in.
As great of a feature it is, it seems a little short sited. If one has multiple artboards one should be able to manage multiple artboards, right?
I totally love having multiple artboards but I should be able to resize and manage multiple artboards as well. This is great for building icon sets but how can I resize the set all at once?
I was considering trying to do an action but odds are I still would have to select an artboard one by one to do which doesn't save much time if you have like 30 artboards to apply this to. I don't even see a batch render for artboards and Photoshop has that for its files.
I'm well aware of the solution that is displayed here: [URL]

Am I to understand if I have multiple artboards, they all will share the same layers? Each artboard does not have it's own separate set of layers, am I right? This is my first time using the artboard feature... CS6.

I have a document with alot of artboards. I realized the first artboard started in the middle of the pasteboard so I've run out of room at the bottom. I'd like to move all of my artboards at the same time to the top of the pasteboard.

When I create a new document in Illustrator I'm getting two artboards, even though the new document dialog box displays 1 in the Number of Artboards dropdown. Why this might happen, and more importantly, how to stop it?

I've downsaved the file as an ai file for CS6 in CS7, however when I go to open it in CS6 it forces me to open each artboard as a separate file. How can I save it so the file will open normally?

In Adobe Illustrator CS5, you now have the capability give a name to each artboard in your illustrator file. I understand that you can easily save each artboard as separate AI files but I would like to save them as separate PDFs instead.
Any script, or know the actual method of doing so? All I can possibly theorize is to save the artboards as separate PDFs and then have Acrobat convert those artboards to PDFs.

I am using AutoCAD 2013 - Educational Version, and I want to convert my linework into a column grid. For some reason the COLUMNGRIDADD command is not being recognized by the program. When I type it in the command line, it just says Unknown Command.
Additionally, my Build Panel is missing from the ribbon, which is the other source for the column grid tools. I tried to reload or change the CUI, but so far this has not been successful.

We are looking for a column grid bubble dynamic block that will allow us to place horizontal or vertical grid lines while the text in the bubble remains in the upright position.
Another thing we need is to allow for column lines close together without overlapping bubbles. In other words, we need to have the ability to have a diagonal line from the bottom or side of the bubble to the column line which allows us to have all bubbles aligned no matter how close the columns grid lines are.
The attribute in the bubble has to be able to have XX.X to fit within the bubble with the first to X's to be either Alpha or Numeric and the last X to be Numeric only.
Can this be made to be Annotative too?

I have a keyboard shortcut for Copy (see directly below). This command doesn't copy multiple. But if I type "Copy" at the comment prompt (AutoCAD 2013) the copy multiple is the default. Copymode is already set to "0".

I have an Illustrator document with one layer (named Layer 1).In that layer are lines, rectangles and text.Is it possible (in script) to: make 3 additional layers named NL, EN and GEselect and cut all the text in Layer 1paste that text in the same place in the layers NL, EN and GE
(Step 2: select all text items and Ctrl-X)
(Step 3: select proper layer and Paste in Place in that layer)
I know this can be done with an action (I did that allready) but the reason I want to script this is because I have to combine this with another script which takes care of colorizing stuff.

Is there a way to create an object/group in Illustrator and then copy it across one document in multiple places (multiple art boards, etc.) - allowing the designer to then update the original and seeing the changes cascade to all copies?
I know this can be done using InDesign by linking an Illustrator file and making subsequent updates to that Illustrator file. But I do not want to use InDesign, I want to use Illustrator. What I want is much like creating Symbols in Flash, updating one will cascade throughout the file.
