How paste into art board

When I paste my artwork to a new document how do I paste it so it pastes into the artboard? It always pastes way outside of it even though I do paste in place.

you might want to consider the way you're talking to people. Because: yes, many of us have something better to do than trying to guess what you mean or what you're doing or what you're actually seeing (so you might want to show screenshots as well).

How can i use eyedropper between two different art board.

Hi
How can i apply the same color for the images in two different art boards with eyedropper.
I am trying to apply the same color from the image in one art board to another image in another art board.
Can any one help me please. Thanks
Steve
I am using Mac

apresslink,
Presuming you are unable to use the Eyedropper Tool normally, in other words keep the target object selected while you pick up the colour, by having the Artboards open in adjacent windows to ClickDrag between (I am still with 10 which may explain at least part of my ignorance for which I apologize):
Until someone presents a smarter solution, you may cheat and create a carrier object beside the source object, drop the colour in that, cut and paste it to be beside the target object, and drop the colour there. With multiple colours to drop multiple times, you may create a palette to hold them, to use just like a painter working on several canvases at the same time. Or you could paste diminshed copies of the source objects.

How do I get the screen to refresh when drawing a line larger than the art board

How do I get the screen to refresh properly when drawing a line larger than the art board when the screen scrolls? Everything turns white in CS6, CS5 and CS4.

Existing art - not the new art. The new art just gets a proxy shape - seen in my example as the blue rectangle. The existing art is what gets smeared as you drag past the edge of the screen. If it's anything other than an Ilustrator thing, it's a Mac thing. I've never known it to be any other way other than maybe in the past showing blank white instead of stuttered art on probably 10 different macs over the years.
Take any art that you've ever created. Zoom in so that your art is bigger than your screen (so that there's somewhere to scroll). Rectangle tool (or move, scale, rotate(?) something, or draw a line) Start your rectangle anywhere, drag so that you are at the edge of the screen, causing it to scroll. The existing art will get all effed up. The rectangle you're drawing will draw as you expect it to - that's not the issue.

How to view individual art board in Bridge CS4?

Hi.
Can somebody tell me how to configure the Adobe Bridge CS4 so that it shows/views/displays individual art boards (that I can scroll thru) and NOT the whole *.ai file (which contains ALL the art boards)?
I want to preview the individual art boards as a larger image, and when they all appear together in the *.ai file, they appear smaller.
At the bottom of this page:
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/illustrator/articles/lrvid4016_ai.html
it says;
"To view documents, open Adobe Bridge and select an Illustrator document from the Content panel. A larger view of the document appears in the Preview panel located to the right of the Content panel. When viewing an Illustrator file with multiple artboards, click the right-facing arrow below the preview to display each of the artboards."
I do not have this arrow, so therefore no option. On my bridge, all artboards appear together. How do I separate them and get the arrow he is talking about?
TIA.

Interesting, looks like you also need to save the file with Create PDF Compatible File checked in the Illustrator options dialog when saving - the sample files were saved without PDF compatibility, so no individual artboard preview.
I resaved the sample file In the Cradle of the Deep with Create PDF Compatible File checked, and it shows the artboard previews individually.

How can I create accurate decimal dimensions when creating a new document or using the art board in Illustrator CS6? When I type in a number with a decimal, it automatically rounds the number up.

How can I create accurate decimal dimensions when creating a new document or using the art board in Illustrator CS6? When I type in a number with a decimal, it automatically rounds the number up.

For my part you are welcome, sdowers.
Unfortunately, the uncertainty arising from the rounding has been up several times here in this forum.
I just came to remember a warning that needs to be given:
The rounding of the representation of a numerical value may be harmless in itself, but if you use it for any operation that changes the value, such as multiplication or whatever, things will go wrong because the operation will be made on the basis of the rounded value instead of the true value. So, as in your first case in post #2, 39.625 rounded to 39.63 will become 79.26 instead of 79.25.

The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

How to rotate a art board in a illustrator using adobe extended javascript

how to create mirror image of each textframe content of artboard

1. there's no "Rotate" function, you have to rotate all your objects and then "resize" your artboard to simulate rotation.
2. there's no "Reflect" function either, to make "mirror" images, use the ScaleMatrix function, see this post
Reflect whole objects

Illustrator CS 6 won't paste into a text box/paragraph of text, instead pastes a new line of text in the upper left corner of my document. How can I get it to paste into the selected paragraph or highlighted text like normal?

I've done it a million times, I copy a selection of type...I select the type that I want to replace it with, and then I paste. Now, Illustrator will only paste the text as a "point text" (a single line) somewhere else on the artboard—it seems to always be the upper left corner of the art board.

peg,
In cases of sudden appearance of strangenesses, the list may be relevant, hopefully the easy part at the top.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Draw a box with your Rectangle Tool the size of your art board and fill that with the color you need.

I don't think the list style transfers. Copy and paste the text in to Mail, select it and then choose "Insert Numbered List" as a work around.

How do I copy text and objects from pages to and paste into Email, objects don't show in Email

Anyone know how I copy text and objects from pages and paste into Email, objects don't show in Email, thanks

You can't expect Mail to support all the objects of Pages which can include anything up to charts generated from spreadsheet tables.
Even if Mail was a superset of Pages, what would the recipients who don't have either Mail or Pages, make of it?

How to undo the "Paste into" in Indesign?

Does anyone know how to undo the "Paste into" in Indesign? I have used the "paste into" to mask a list of items but now i want to redo it so that I can see the whole list of items again. Is it possible?
thanks!

Same way you undo anything else, Edit > Undo, or are you asking if you can come back days later and remove the content, then put it elsewhere? Sounds like maybe the latter, and my guess is you pasted a text frame into another frame, so you need to select the outer frame, then Object > Select > Content, or just use the Direct Select tool to select the content, then cut and finally paste it someplace else.

How can I copy current board content into new board?

Hi there.
how can I copy current board content into new board?

Hi-
Can I drag it to the external drive or perhaps just the songs, then copy/drag them to my new computer ?
Pretty much, Yes.
If you wish to keep the formatting, notes, ratings, etc. that are with the library, you should allow the iTunes software to "discover" the library.
If the iTunes Library from one machine is placed on an external drive, the iTunes software on the other machine can be directed to the library of the external drive when connected.
Allowing "Copy to Home folder/music" will provide for copying of the library to the new machine.
Alternatively, if the library is loaded onto an iPod, the iPod can be used to transfer the music.

When I paste into the form, it pastes 3 times. How do I get it to paste 1 time?

When I paste into the form, it pastes 3 times. How do I get it to paste 1 time? WANt to copy text from a pdf and enter into a form- 1 x.

My bet is that there are 3 copies of the same field one on top of another.
You can verify this by going to Form Edit mode and inspecting the fields
