How do I eliminate objects outside of artboard?

I'm working with an 11x17 artboard that I plan to print. I want full-color bleed for some of the objects, so they obviously overlap the artboard border. However, when I save as a pdf (the print shop's needed format), it saves the ENTIRE Illustrator image, including the "out of bounds" objects.
How do I save or export my Illustator file to a pdf so that any information outside the 11x17 artboard is ignored, leaving me with an 11x17 pdf file with full-color bleed?
I'm running Illustrator CS (11.0.0)
Thank you!

That should not be necessary in CS4 if you have artwork outside the bleed area and you have the bleed specified and you save or print it as pdf then the are should not not appear outside the bleed area. If you turn on trim marks as well then you will see the trim marks and the bleed as you have specified.
The use of the crop tool is unnecessary in CS 4 for exporting or saving with the bleed.

  • How to recover artwork saved outside the artboard from CS5?

    To put it simply, I worked on some logo designs at home using CS6.
    The next day at my friends office I opened the file up in CS5.
    Now it read the Document as a PDF form (not sure why). I had 3 pages of Artwork that I had to open seperately.
    I saved 2 of the Docs as new CS5 docs and cotinued working on my logo development on the original CS6 doc opened in CS5.
    I continued to work off the original file outside the artboard parameters without 'saving as'.
    I have spent 5 hours working on designs and kept saving the file until home time.
    When I then tried to open the same file that had registered the save (time shown) and file size increased I was left with 1 Artboard and no surrounding designs.
    I know illustrator very well however this process has stumped me.
    I know my work is in there somewhere due to the file size and fonts it keeps asking for that I used outside the artboard.
    Please help.

    Thank guys. I know there was only a slim chance but I was hoping for a miracle.
    Cheers

  • How do I mask objects outside of the Stage Window?

    Oops Sorry for the Double Post!

    Walter,
    Wow thanks for the quick reply, Ok, I created a new layer,
    then I created a shape the same size as my stage and filled it with
    black, then I grouped the shape and right-clicked on the layer and
    selected "mask". I then made sure all of my other layers were below
    the "mask" layer and then I previewd it. I dragged the preview
    window larger but it did not mask my animated objects which are
    outside of the stage. Did I miss something?

  • How to see the object while moving on the artboard?

    hello everyone;
    maybe a silly question; how to see the object while moving on the artboard? i dont wanna see only the objects bounding box(outline of the object). i wanna see the object it self. thank you.

    What have they gone and messed up now?
    When I drag an object (with bounding boxes turned on), the object moves and the bounding box stays still until I stop dragging, upon which it snaps to the object’s new position.
    If I don’t have bounding boxes turned on (as I usually work), the object moves when dragged.
    If what Bedri says is right, they’ve gone and mended something that wasn’t busted.

  • How to select the objects sharing the same appearance in the same artboard?

    I have several artboards in the file and I want to select all the objects having the drop shadow effect in the artboards I'm working. No matter I use the "Select" in the menu or the "Select similar objects" button in the control panel, it selects all the objects having the same appearance in the entire canvas, not only the one in the artboard I'm working. Any means or there's nothing can do?
    Please help!

    yes, that's work and I also tried to lock the objects in another artboard in order to select the objects in the working artboard only. However, I think that's stupid to get it done in this way and Adobe should improve this in the next version.
    This is easy enough to state but if you think this is wrong then you should perhaps suggest a way this feature could be manifested.
    For instance to you this should only effect the current artboard but there will come along another user who will say hey wait a minute I need to select all the drop shadowed objects and remove them now I have to go from atboard to artboard.
    If you see what I mean, II found out that when I find something that is seemingly stupid that in fact there is a reason for it and there has to be a way to describe how it can be improved without breaking what you already have.
    For instance you want it to just effect the current artboard but then there will be those who also want it if it even touches the artboard and those who will want it on a range of atboards and those who will actually want AI to know which artboards you want even without you specifying which artboards. That last one sounds illogical but that is the nature of the problem and the human conditions.
    So though I agree this can be improved perhaps you have an idea how this can work for everyone?

  • How do I eliminate delays in transmitting buffered CAN data?

    My application using the PCI-CAN Series 2 card is programming automotive modules in a time-critical environment using a MSVC++ application running on Win2000. We need to send about 1.4 Mb of data to the module as quickly as possible, preferably less than 70 seconds. We are communicating with the modules at 500 Kbaud using standard frames (not extended).
    Looking at the CAN bus on a scope, we see that the frames themsevles are about 240 microseconds wide, but after each frame of data, there is roughly 300 microseconds of delay.
    In my C++ implementation, I have created a transmit object with a transmit queue size of 225 frames. The transmit object is configured to transmit "by call" and the period att
    ribute has been set to 0. Using this configuration, I would assume that data would be sent as fast as possible. I am certain that the transmit queue is being filled faster than it can send the data out. What is producing the delays between frames, and how do I eliminate them?
    (Attached file contains transmit object configuration and frame writing routine.)

    CAN_code.cpp ‏6 KB

    Hey Glenn,
    If all you want to do is transmit as fast as possible, I would recommend using the network interface object rather than a CAN object. This will reduce the overhead and should improve your performance. Use a large transmit queue length on the network interface object, and try to keep the queue full. This should maximize the output of the CAN card. Other things to be aware of: what is your total bus utilization? If other devices are transmitting on the bus and the CAN card is losing arbitration, you could see a big performance hit. Also, make sure you are using the latest NI-CAN driver (2.2). There have been performance increases over older drivers (1.6 and previous specifically).
    NI-CAN v2.2: http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/websearch/C

  • How to create an object of inner class

    hi i don't know how to create an object of an inner class..
    i got something like
    class Abc{
    private class Abcd {
    like this and i want to create an object of Abcd so that i can use some of method
    there..
    i think i should create the outter class object first right? but not sure
    the syntax.. i tried something like
    Abc.Abcd justTry = new Abc.Abcd()
    something like this..but not work..
    help me plz. ...

    If the nested class (that's not technically an inner
    class you have there) is not static, then you can't
    refer to it with OuterClassName.InnerClassName any
    more than you can refer to any other member--method
    or variable--with ClassName.staticMember.
    You need an instance.
    It's been a while since I've created an instance of a
    non-static nested class from outside that clsas, but
    I think it's something like this: Outer outer = new Outer();
    outer.Inner inner = new outer.Inner();
    Actually, I think it is this:
      Outer outer = new Outer();
      outer.Inner inner = outer.new Inner();Can't test it now though, gotta go to Taco John's for TACO TUESDAY!!!!
    Gotta love them crunchy shell bean tacos!!!

  • How to use swf object

    Hi have been trying to get my head around how to use swf object, I know very little javascript and so am having difficulty in modifying the code to suit my needs.  This is my page which I have used dreamweaver cs3 and have used insert>media>flash and it is working well but does not validate.  I would really appreciate if somebody could write the exact html code I need to convert this to swf object.
    http://www.kimberleywebdesign.com.au/Links.html

    You should be able to just declare a variable outside of the onComplete function and assign it the loaded object when the file loads...
    var loadedSWF:MovieClip;
    function loadComplete(e:Event):void {
         removeChild(old_mc);
         addChild( DisplayObject(LoaderInfo(e.target).content) );

  • I used dup cleaner to delete several pics.  Now i have many pics with ? marks.  How do i eliminate these pics?

    After using Dup Cleaner, I deleted several pics.  Now in my organizer, many pics have Question Marks indicating no Pic.  How do I eliminate the thumbnails?

    Rule number one of the Organizer: don't delete, rename or move files outside of the Organizer.
    The catalog still retains the location where the files were when 'imported = indexed' in the catalog.
    In your case, simply run a File/Reconnect missing files.
    In the resulting dialog, middle of second line, you have an icon opening a menu where you can choose "Select All", then "delete all". That removes the recording of the missing files in the catalog.

  • How can I publish artwork inside the artboard only?

    How can I publish artwork inside the artboard only?
    As I don't want to show anything outside the artboard when I publish it.
    Also, how can I make the published swf file fit to the artboard size? As I don't want to show the white area outside the artboard.
    Hope someone could help! Many thanks!

    One thing I have noticed is that when you embed the .swf, if you don't designate the widht and height, sometimes you will see some of the extra outside the artboard. For example:
    I uploaded my published files to www.website.com/flash and my .swf is at www.website.com/flash/Main.swf. If I just use that url I will see the extra from Main.swf. However, if I create a page where I embed the .swf, like www.website.com/main.html, I no longer see it.

  • Group a word in a text block with an object outside the text block?

    As I work at a publishing house, I mostly work with long texts. Often, objects that mark something in the text, for example to mark that this word is in the dictionary. But as soon as I format the text and the word moves up or down, the dictionary marking has to be moved manually. This is often a source of error.
    What if you could lock an object to a certain word in textblock, and as the word moves, the object follows within the structured assigned. To link an object to follow a word. Like grouping to objects, but grouping a certain word in a text block and an object outside the textblock.
    What do you think?

    I know what you mean
    Here's how you do it - If I've understood you correctly
    You need to place the object after or before the word, depending, and change the an X Relative to: Anchor Marker
    You can see when you go to View Text Threads and have the anchored objected selected it shows you where the anchor is linked to. In this case it's linked to where it's anchored, instead of the page edge, or frame edge etc.

  • How can I eliminate delays in one NIC when there is traffic on second NIC

    Using LabVIEW TCP/IP VIs, my LV application is  accessing a database though a LAN, and  through a second NIC, it is controlling an instrument.  The instrument is connected directly to the computer NIC with a cross-over cable.  I have made a permanent route for the IP address of the instrument in the IP route table.  The LAN and the instrument have different subnet numbers.  Using a packet sniffer, I don't see any traffic meant for the LAN going to the NIC connected to the instrument.  The OS of the computer is Windows XP and the NICs are PCI cards.
    The message traffic to the instrument suffers from intermittent delays when there is traffic going to the LAN. 
    How can I eliminate the delays?  What could be the cause of the delays?  Thanks in advance for your recommendations and suggestions.

    Hi LabBard,
    Could you tell us a little more about the device that you are connected to? What you could try is to have a VI accessing the LAN, and a separate VI communicating with the instrument, and see how things play out.
    Let us know how it goes!
