USING ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR CS4
Workspace
If the Welcome screen is open, click a document profile from the Create New list.
If Illustrator is not open, open it and click a document profile from the Create New list in the Welcome screen.
Note: In the Welcome screen, you can Alt-click (Windows) or Option-click (Mac OS) to open the new document directly
and skip the New Document dialog box.
2 Type a name for your document.
3 Specify the number of artboards for your document, and the order you’d like them laid out on screen:
Grid By Row Arranges multiple artboards in the specified number of rows. Choose the number of rows from the Rows
menu. The default value creates the most square appearance possible with the specified number of artboards.
Grid By Column Arranges multiple artboards in the specified number of columns. Choose the number of columns
from the Columns menu. The default value creates the most square appearance possible with the specified number of
artboards.
Arrange By Row Arranges artboards in one straight row.
Arrange By Column Arranges artboards in one straight column.
Change To Right-To-Left Layout Arranges multiple artboards in the specified row or column format, but displays
them from right to left.
4 Specify the default spacing between artboards. This setting applies to both horizontal and vertical spacing.
5 Specify the default size, units of measure, and layout for all artboards.
Note: Once your document opens, you can customize your artboards by moving and resizing them as desired.
6 Specify the position of the bleed along each side of the artboard. To use different values for different sides, click the
Lock icon
.
7 Click Advanced to specify the following additional options:
Note: You can change these settings after you create the document by choosing File > Document Setup and specifying new
settings.
Color Mode Specifies the color mode for the new document. Changing the color mode converts the default contents
(swatches, brushes, symbols, graphic styles) of the selected new document profile to a new color mode, resulting in a
color change. Watch for a warning icon when making changes.
Raster Effects Specifies the resolution for raster effects in the document. It is especially important to set this at High
when you plan to output to a high-end printer at high resolution. The Print profile sets this at High by default.
Transparency Grid Specifies the options for the transparency grid for documents that use the Video And Film profile.
Preview Mode Sets the default preview mode for the document (you can change this at any time by using the View
menu):
Default displays artwork created in the document in vector view with full color. Zoom in/out retains smoothness
in the curves.
Pixel displays artwork with a rasterized (pixilated) appearance. It does not actually rasterize the content, but
displays a simulated preview, as if the contents were rasters.
Overprint provides an “ink preview” that approximates how blending, transparency, and overprinting will appear
in color-separated output. (See
About overprinting” on page 428.)
Device Central If you’ve created a document using the Mobile and Devices profile, you can click Device Central to
preview your new document in the mobile device interface.
