Illustrator :: How To Save Custom Artboard Setup With Custom Document Profile
Nov 1, 2012
Is there a way to save a custom artboard setup with a custom document profile in illustrator cs5? I do technical illustrations and our page size is odd (7.19 x 8.96. It the size that our Framemaker layout is set to.). I have a custom document profile that I use, but I use the grids all the time so that my callouts are spaced out evenly around the art. I would like to have a way to set the artboard up so that the grid will align to the center of the artboard everytime I turn them on. Right now they always start from the top left and when I center art in the center of the page, the grid spacing isn't the same on each side of the art. I just want to be able to open my document profile, turn on my grids, have them start from the center, and I can get down to business. As it is now I have to go into my artboard settings and manually adjust the grid to the center. Small annoyance, but it still annoys me. I have tried to save it a few different ways, but nothing has worked. Maybe there just isn't a way.

In prior versions of PS, if I added a custom profile under Proof Setup, it would be pinned to the Proof Setup menu (along with the default profiles). That doesn't appear to happen in PS CS6.
Is there a specific place I need to save the custom Proof profiles to so that they will appear in the menu?

I am running Autocad mech 2009.
I would like to set up Autcad so that when it opens, it opens a custom profile.
In the past, I was able to accomplish this by using the autocad shortcut properties:
"C:Program FilesAutodeskACADM 2009acad.exe" /p <<customprofilehere>>
However, now....i have a shortcut that opens autocad up in xm mode and so the shortcut properties looks like this:
%SystemRoot%system32
undll32.exe %SystemRoot%system32VMCPropertyHandler.dll,Launc hVMSal "Windows XP Mode" "||4f5d99c9" "AutoCAD Mechanical 2009"
is there a way to modify this so that it will open the custom profile when it launches autocad in xmmode?

Photoshop CS6 on Mac.
Edit an image file and get it to where I like on the monitor.Duplicate the file and set the new file to the profile for the printer which will be used, by using View > Proof Setup > Custom and setting an imported printer profile for the printing company that I use.
Edit the soft proof file to get it to where it looks good again. Save off the file for the printer and also save the new PSD file.
Close the PSD file.Reopen the new (soft proofed) PSD file.Still looks good, but.... when you check View > Proof Setup it's now generally set to Custom: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2 instead of to the imported printer profile which was set previously. WHY???? Where did the printer profile go? Is it supposed to do this?
If I then reset View > Proof Setup to the correct printer profile, the image goes to crap again.

Displaying custom artboard Names under the artboards
Naming and sorting artboards is a great way to handle multiple page AI files. I'm working on a longterm project that uses a large number of artwords. Is it possible to display the name of the artboard under the artboard itself on the screen?
Here are examples:
[above: I've currently got over 40 artboards in this one file]
[above: the listing of artboards]

How do you go about saving a custom color profile in CS6? Gone is the save button after you have created the custom profile. In my case I want to save a custom Adobe RGB profile with a gamma of 1.0 instead of the usual 2.2. I can create it easy enough in the custom dialog box, but haven't figured out how to save it.

Is there any chance to assign values to an artboard?
I've experimented with “tags”, but they only work for pageItems. (if the item which includes the stored data is deleted, the data is also deleted)
It is simple data like v1=true, v2=false, … I want to assign. And it needs to be saved within the illustrator document.

Is it possible to create AND save predefined document sizes instead of the standard US-letter, US-legal, A4, A3…? And DELETE these for video and screen sizes, ect., which I don`t need? I need my own standard sizes (print) for a daily working basis like business cards -> 85x55, postcard ->... A4). So that I don`t have to type the measures again and again manually within a new document or existing artwork. I normally combine all printproduct (drawingareas) for a client in ONE AI file.

I am trying to setup some palettes to use at work and am using blocks to do so. What I've found is that my palettes work if I have left the blocks in place in the file in which I am creating the palettes. However, if I have deleted the blocks from the file, the blocks in the paletette will not work. Is this normal or is there something deeper?

In the past week or two, I took time to re-create the tool button config in PSP14 that I've used for many years in Paint Shop Pro. However, the next day I see PSP14 has reset to the DEFAULT toolbars!!
Why did this happen? Was it failure to SAVE the configuration? Are my toolbars lost now? any way to restore besides button-by-button reconfig?

Is there any way to extend the "new document" presets as to include custom background or multi layered file ?I find myself using the same layer folders tree and it would be awesome to be able to start right away with a blank document already loaded with this tree.If complete multi layered file is not possible, something like being able to choose the background from a picture (instead of white/color/transparent) would be a great time saver.
