Adding Artboards

Adding Artboards in Adobe Illustrator isn’t that complicated. Below are some guides on how to add art boards for your project.

Creating a Single Artboard

1. In Adobe Illustrator, click on FILE -> NEW.

2. In the Create New Document Window, type “1” in the Number of Artboards field – this will ensure that you’ll only have a single art board in your new document. Supply the necessary size, orientation and bleed according to preference then click OK.

3. You can now start designing your project in the newly created art board.

Creating Multiple Artboards

1. Create a new document by clicking FILE -> NEW.

2. In the Create New Document Window, type the number of art boards that you’d like to work on. You can supply as little as 2 to 100 art boards in the Number of Artboards field. In this example, we are going to be creating “5” art boards with a spacing of 40pt and arranged in 3 columns with a Grid arrangement by ROW. Take note that you can arrange the placement of your multiple art boards according to rows or columns. After supplying the size and other necessary details, click OK.

These buttons will arrange the grid placement of your multiple art boards according to Row or Column.

3. You can now work on your multiple art boards.
