How do I install a custom texture in Illustrator (or embed it in my file?)

I created a custom texture for my Illustrator files called "CanvasDP", but when I open the files Illustrator changes this custom file to "Canvas." I suspect this is because my CanvasDP.psd is in a new location (I moved all my files to Dropbox). Is there some way to permanently add my CanvasDP file to an Illustrator library (so it would automatically show up in the texture dropdown)? Or can I embed the CanvasDP file in the Illustrator file so the file always has direct access to it?
I have my custom texture applied to dozens of objects on dozens of layers ... in dozens of files! Going through and reapplying the texture by hand is totally impractical. There has to be a workaround.

I tried what you said, but I'm still getting the same strange result. When I apply the Swatch pattern to an object, it creates these strange off color regions that don't move. When I move the object shown in the screenshots below down, the off color regions remain in the same place on the screen. Very strange.
Btw - thank you so much for helping me with this!

How do I install my custom, self-created graphic Persona / Theme that I use on my XP computers on my Win7Firefox?

How do I install my custom, self-created graphic Persona / Theme that I use on my XP computers on my Windows 7 Firefox? (Firefox 17.0.1 Windows 7 64bit Home Edition? (There is, as far as I can tell, no "little fox" icon visible in the lower left!) I am using a downloaded "Persona", or "Theme" ((I sure wish you people would not change important terminology at the drop of a hat!)) and it is working fine.....

You will have to install the Persona Plus extension to easily install a persona via its files instead of via internet.

How do I install a custom ppd to create postscript files in Windows 7?

I recently got a new computer with Windows 7 and installed my Creative Suite on it. I can't however install adobe's universal postscript driver which enables me to use my custom ppd for my printer (not an actual machine printer but the print company I sent my files to for printing). I can't find any postscript driver from Adobe that work with Windows 7. I hope thats not the case. I know in InDesign I can print straight to a postscript file anyway, but there is ppd box with that option to select your custom ppd's. I just have no way of installing my custom ppd. I would think this would be a big problem for others in the print industry (well for those in the industry that use PC's which are few), but I'm not finding any discussions on this online. Can anyone help?

There never was an Adobe PostScript driver for either Windows 2000, XP, Vista, or 7. What was posted on the Adobe downloads site was an installer to associate a user designated PPD with the standard Windows PostScript driver (PSCRIPT). That installer does not work on any version of Windows beyond Windows XP, 32-bit. Adobe has no intention of updating that installer.
Workarounds include installing a driver for a different PostScript printer and then editing or replacing the PPD file associated with that PPD file after it has been installed. Alternatively, you can develop the appropriate .INF file pointing to your PPD file for use by the Add Printer wizard. Such a solution allows you to name the printer or pseudo-printer whatever you want.

How do I install Cutting Master 3 to Illustrator CS6?

How do I install Cutting Master 3 (plug in) into Illustrator CS6?
I have tried and it is not working.

Hi Di in CS,
You can install any commercial plug-in designed for use with Illustrator.
To install an Adobe Systems plug-in module, use the installer if one is provided. Otherwise, drag a copy of the module to the Plug-ins folder inside the Illustrator folder. Then restart Illustrator for the plug-in to take effect.
To install a third-party plug-in module, follow the installation instructions that came with the plug-in module.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sumit Singh

How can I save a Custom Workspace in Illustrator CC?

I believe I've found a major bug in Illustrator CC ...or to put it more aptly...what appears to be an omission. The help topic path that tells how to save a custom workspace in previous versions does not exist in Illustrator CC. Has this option been reconfigured or simply forgotten? Please enlighten me if you have the answer. I'm using a Trial Version.

You can easily find the location of the new document profiles. When setting up a new document, go to the menu of profiles, then select "Brwose". THis takes you directly to the folder.
Use your operating system's tools to display that folder in the Windows Navigator.

How do I create a 3D pyramid using Illustrator CC?

I have been trying to create a 3D pyramid using Illustrator CC. All the tutorials I have found have been telling me I need to create a custom bevel, but the Bevels.ai file is not in the plugins folder as it used to be. How do I create a custom bevel in Illustrator CC?
Thanks!

Perfect now you have two such files whiuch ae different
yes, that's perfect. Because that way you've got the origibal unaltered file as a fallback in case you made any error when editing it.
snd looking for trouble when all you had to do was save it and close it.
No, you're not looking for trouble when saving a copy. Actually in the future you're looking into less trouble not having to open the program package again, mistaking the open window with something else and editing in there.
Not like Illustrator is prone to preference corruption.
Preferences have got nothing to do with the plugin folder.

I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button but can't. Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. It is the 2014 release of adobe illustrator. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button.
I start a new document. Then I place my scanned pencil/colored pencil drawing, in to the document. I have tried scanning and then placing it as a jpeg, bitmap, and tiff file. I have tried scanning and then placing it, in color and in black and white. The scan mode I use is flatbed. Adobe illustrator allows me to select the default button and one of eleven preset buttons (e.g high fidelity photo), but it does not allow me to click the custom trace button. The custom trace button is grey while all the other buttons are white.
Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

It seems pointless to adjust it afterwards because it is then only a couple a pencil lines rather then a full drawing. And how do I adjust it afterwards? Would I do this using the different buttons under the window button?

How a custom component is called when we install a custom component in UCM.

How a custom component is called when we install a custom component in UCM.
On what event the component services will be activated and called.
Suppose i create a Custom service name MULTIPLECHECKIN then this service will be called on what event and where it will be defined to call.

Saurabh,
the code is packed in the component (see component\Security Filter\java\Security Filter\ModifyAttributesFilter.java - the first Security Filter is the component name, the other Security Filter is the Java package name).
What is important:
- your class must implement the FilterImplementor interface (you will need UCM standard classes - server.zip in your classpath) and its doFilter method
How the filter is executed?
- actually, in this case you don't need any new service - you can use the standard 'hook', which is provided by standard checkin services
- in Component Wizard create a new component, add your compiled class to it (make sure you follow the rules not to end up in classpath issues)
- in Component Wizard click the 'Java Code' tab. Here you can add a Custom filter called validateCheckinData, which is executed by standard checkin services. If you parametrize the filter to call your class created above, you are done.
'Working with Content Components' manual (e.g. here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10316_01/cs/cs_doc_10/documentation/developer/using_components_10en.pdf) can give you a basic picture. A better resource is Bex Huff's book - I would recommend you to get it, because it has a step-by-step HelloWorld example which can guide you through Component Wizard. I could also send you my own component (send me an email at [email protected]) which implements a filter for user quotas, so you just need to "replace classes".
As for the other half of your task, searching for the file in the database server will work only if you use database as your storage (ie. install and configure File Store Provider component accordingly). Of course, you could do a search for file in this case - just consider that you will be comparing two BLOBs rather than two relatively short check-sums (most likely strings or arrays of bytes). Besides, it will not work if you use filesystem as your storage.

How do I install custom printer profiles in Mac os mountain lion. I can't find the icc profiles directory (if that's what it is).

NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder. You'll need to do it again after each system update that's applied.
