Ilustrator freezes creating a new document with web profile.

Hi,
I have the illustrator instalation from creative cloud subscription and everytime i create a new document and on the profile combo choose "web", the illustrator freezes forever.
Im using mac version in a macbook pro 13" corei7 with 8gigs ram.

I'm having the same issue with i7 2500k, SSD, 16gb ram, 6870 2gb vram 10.7.4.
Anyone have any idea if i can get a crash report to help you guys out with figuring this?
Basically whenever i go -> new and change the document profile to web (or a few others) it just LOCKS and needs to be force quitted.
I've also just ran with the default and it locks up anyway.

Create a new document with settings appropriate for SWF or XFL output.

I'm studying up for the CS4 ACE exam, and I'm stumped on something. In the "Laying out a Document" section, it says: "Create a new document with settings appropriate for SWF or XFL output." There isn't really anything specific to creating a document for flash, except that you wouldn't add bleed. I can't find anything online that addresses this. Am I missing something here? Any document can be exported to SWF or XFL. This seems rather ambiguous. What is there to know about this?

You're right that any document can be exported to SWF or XFL. I'm not sure what you're going to be asked on the ACE exam, but here are some resources:

Creating a new document with columns and printing effects

If you create a new document and set columns into it in the new document menu, and then subsequently create images, tables, text etc. in the document that are bigger than one column (that stretch for example across the entire page), will the part of the image that's in the gutter print and/or show up if it's saved as a PDF?
Help!
Thanks!

Guides are only there as a reference for you to help in alignment.They don't restrict what or where objects can be placed or affect their visibility or printability.
To see what your page will look like in print, switch to Preview Mode (fast way is to press W with nothing selected).

Creating a new document with separate images

Can someone help me create a new document that has two separate images. I can create a new document but don't know how to place two separate photos in the document. For instance create a document that is 8.5 x11 with two images each 8.5 x 5.5.

there is a number of ways to do this. also reading the manual to get a basic understanding of how Photoshop works will do wonders. Another method of learning is lynda.com
here is one way.
1 make a doc that is 8.5 x 11 at whatever resolution you need.
2 use a guide as a center point.
3 open the two pics you want to use.
4 make sure they are the same res as your 8.5 x 11
5 drag the layers from the open pics to the 8.5 x 11
6 crop and size the pics in the file so they fit in each half

How to create a new document with a given theme, instead of choosing it every time.

Hi,
for work I only use a custom made keynote theme.
I've already deleted all the default themes, and the only one that is listed in the app is the one I actually use.
However every time I create a new document I have to chose its theme (that's normal having plenty of themes, but in my case is just a waste of time).
I was wondering if there's a way to tell keynote to start a new document with a given theme, in order to avoid to chose it every time.
Thank you for reading and for the help you will give.
Giacomo

Keynote > Preferences > General tab
select “Use theme,” and then click Choose to select a theme.

Can I create a new document with a locked PDF file, add new pages, and lock it all again?

I published a PDF document ten years ago and now want to add Creative Commons licensing language to the copyright page. But I forgot the password! I gather from the Forum that there is no way to recover the password. However, I wonder if I can take the locked PDF file, create a new document (adding a new page for the licensing information), then lock the whole thing up again. Will this work? Thanks for your help!

To create an unprotected file you would need the password.

Creating a new document with different formats, i.e. A5

Hello
I guess that triggering the menu item :
File > Page Setup…
may help.
It's from this one that we may define the paper format.

JS - Center Selection to Artboard / New Document with certain Artboard size

TL;DR:
how do I center my current selection to the artboard?
just like hitting the "horizontal align-center" and "vertical align-center" buttons.
Hi,
I've been searching for the last two hours and before my head hits the keyboard I wanted to ask you for help.
What I'm struggling with:
in my init function i create a new document and then copy all layers from the previous document step by step to the new document and then save it as SVG.
// Init
(function(){
          destination = Folder.selectDialog('Select folder for SVG files.', docPath);
          if (!destination){return;}
          holderDoc = app.documents.add();
          stepThroughAndExportLayers(docRef.layers);
my problem is that holderDoc = app.documents.add(); always creates a document that is not the same size as my initial document where the layers get copied from.
so I want the exact same artboard size as in my initial document.
I'm fine with either doing it as fixed values or taking directly the values of the inital doc.
i tried this in the segment where I create the new document:
// Init
(function(){
destination = Folder.selectDialog('Select folder for SVG files.', docPath);
if (!destination){return;}
holderDoc = app.documents.add();
holderDoc.artboards[0].artboardRect = [0,0,128,128];
stepThroughAndExportLayers(docRef.layers);
and get this error message:
"Error 1200: an Illustrator error occured: 1346458189 ('PARM')
Line: 83
-> holderDoc.artboards[0].artboardRect = [0,0,128,128];"
which from what I've read on the web means that illustrator doesnt know what document to pick. but i have called it directly. so what could be the issue?
to clearify: I do not want to fit the artboard to the images/layer. the artboard should always have a certain size. (for me 128px by 128px)
I would highly appreciate you helping me with either fixing my approach or propose a completely new one.
Thanks so much in advance.
// edit: workaround
(function(){
          destination = Folder.selectDialog('Select folder for SVG files.', docPath);
          if (!destination){return;}
          var activeArtboard = app.activeDocument.artboards[app.activeDocument.artboards.getActiveArtboardIndex()];
          var ABRect = activeArtboard.artboardRect;
          holderDoc = app.documents.add();
          holderDoc.artboards.add(ABRect);
          holderDoc.artboards.remove(0);
          holderDoc.artboards.setActiveArtboardIndex(0);
          //stepThroughAndExportLayers(docRef.layers);
i now added a new artboard to the new document with the same size as the artboard on the initial document.
i remove the predefined artboard on the new doc and set the new artboard as active.
BUT!
the artboard is now not centered into the window. which lets illustrator place my image with ctrl+c -> ctrl+v somewhere outside the artboard.
i now need to align my selection to the center of the artboard. but i cant find any reference on how to center a selection to the artboard.

yes of course. i never modify the author's comments in original scripts.
but I wont post the script anywhere when it doesnt work anyway haha.
this is what I've done now:
// Init
(function(){
          destination = Folder.selectDialog('Select folder for SVG files.', docPath);
          if (!destination){return;}
          var activeArtboard = app.activeDocument.artboards[app.activeDocument.artboards.getActiveArtboardIndex()];
          var ABRect = activeArtboard.artboardRect;
          // create new document with same artboard as original
          holderDoc = app.documents.add(DocumentColorSpace.RGB, new UnitValue ((Math.abs(ABRect[0]-ABRect[2])), "px"), new UnitValue ((Math.abs(ABRect[0]-ABRect[2])), "px"));
          stepThroughAndExportLayers(docRef.layers);
in order to create the new document with the same dimensions as my orignal doc, I first read the artboardRect dimensions of the current artboard and then create the document with those values passed as parameters. the calculation is to get the real width since artboardRect gives you left,top,right,bottom values and not just height and width.
this only works for square formats though. to make it properly you'd have to change the second "new UnitValue" to use the top and bottom values of artboardRect but I currently dont need to do so.

My Check Out and Open is creating a new document!

Hi there,
As the subject say, my Check Out and Open is creating a new document with a new ID instead of making a new revision of the document.
It creates a new document starting the revision with the number 2! And if I make Check Out and Open of this, it creates a new document with the revision starting on 3.
I can´t get a list of revisions of a document... it creates allways a new one...
Can you explain me why? I really need to fix this.
Thank you,

Hi
Yes the behavior is normal and thats because COAO is doing 2 steps in one viz checking out a content and also opening it for Editing. So effectively you are combining these 2 actions into one. So the content is checked out and hence shows up in the My checked out content.
As for the DIS and COAO , I have not seen a way other than this of working , dont really know why this is the case but I haven't found out a way for making it work in a normal way. Once DIS (WEI) is uninstalled the COAO works normally as in a new revision for that content is checked in .
Hope this helps
Thanks

Creating a new document in Finder with right-click--How?

Is there a way to create a new document in a Finder folder by right-clicking (or Ctrl-left)? So that the new file will be created at that very spot, in that very folder.
In Windows-Explorer this was quick and easy. Just right-click and you could choose from a menu to create a new empty doc of the most popular (installed) programs. Text file was mandatory. The file was created where the curser was at. VERY handy as that way you didn't have to open the application, create a new doc and then when saving having to crawl your way all the way to the position in the Explorer/ Finder.
Since I started with Apple and Tiger I've been missing this feature and Snow Leopard still does not seem to have it. Or did I miss something? I checked all the menue as well. There's not even a "Create new document". Only a "Create new folder".
I was just reminded of this when I wanted to create a new file on an external drive on a server to save some text in it. There was no way other than first opening Textedit, saving the empty file on the local Mac, THEN transferring the empty file to the server. Only THEN I could open it and edit it.
There MUST be a quicker way.
Also, in Windows you could edit this list in the menu (and add programs that would not by themselves do this). Is there a way for the Mac?
Cheers,
Jay

I might have just found a solution myself:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/10432377?messageID=10432377&amp%3b#1043237 7
It seems other people are wondering too.
And for those of you who don't understand why this is useful: Try it.
Open Textedit, Apple-N, and then save the darned file somewhere deep in the labyrinth of the Finder where you've just been but withouth the file. It takes AGES.
I, on the other hand -- at least in Windows --, right-click, new, double-click AAAND I'm on editing the file.
VERY quick.
It's beyond me why this is not possible on a Mac.

Creating a new project with custom fields using web services

in a couple of different ways and haven't had any success up to this point, so any help would be appreciated. I've tried creating it with both a REST call to /_api/ProjectServer/Projects and a SOAP call to /_vti_bin/PSI/Project.asmx. Below are the best shots

Julie,
You can create the fields that are project specifc & you can create fields that apply to all projects but have specific options for projects. Your goal is to create fields that are specific to each project, but right now you get all fields from you old project - is this correct?
From your description below it appears that the fields in your original project are marked as applied to all projects & hence when you create a new project they are inherited. If you mark those fields as applied to certain project & then create a new project those fields will not be inherited.
But you are right in the sense that it is limiting that there is no multi-select for "applies to" field.

HT4942 After Creating a new document or editing an old document in Pages on my iPad I no longer see the changes in Pages on my iPhone. iCloud services are on with both devices.

After Creating a new document or editing an old document in Pages on my iPad I no longer see the changes in Pages on my iPhone. iCloud services are on with both devices.

Just thought I'd add my solution, I decided to go with WebDAV and I think it actually works better than the iTunes way, the steps are pretty much the same but avoiding the iTunes interface just makes things easier and faster.
I followed this guide but it does have a small mistake in the httpd-dav.conf file, on line 2, where it's WebServer/WebDAV">, it should be <Directory "/Library/WebServer/WebDAV">.
The tricky part is setting permissions which if wrong will give you errors when connecting with the iPad, I opted to set all to Read&Write since my home network has a hardware firewall. Another convenience was to add an alias to the webdav share on the Desktop.
I'm still expecting the call from Apple but even if they fix the iTunes I'm sticking with WebDAV, atleast until I see what's new with iOS5 and iCloud this fall which should bring true sync for documents (I'm hoping that they will offer encryption with my own keys, if not, then I'll probably keep using WebDAV).

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.

How do I create a new document that is 8" X 8" and with Print as the document profile?

Page 47 in Chris Botello's Adobe Illustrator CS6 of Cengage's Illustrated Series asks this for the Independent Challenge for Unit B. "Create a new document that is 8" X 8" and with Print as the document profile." As long as its CMYK it's "Print". Right? If I go and change the size the profile goes custom. I'm a Graphic Design Student at a local university. If there are others who have used this book, Please giver me a holler. I wonder what they want there? You think they want to change the "Print" profile? That hasn't been covered. I'm on CC not CS6 but haven't found differences in that area. Probably just not written very clearly.
Thanks,
Gary

Thanks Monika,
I hate it when I fixate on what should be easy. It's probably just a poorly worded task. I don't think it will blow my GPA.

Help with creating a new document

Hi,
I will have to work on creating a new document from scratch which will serve as a billing statement to a customer.
I have to construct it and I am really confused on how to structure my forms and subforms.
Can any of you please point me to a right place where I can get a good design guidelines?? Or is there anything like a good design for this.
Will the form structuring impact performance. This document can run really long based on the number of transactions.
I am using castor and object to xml mapping and using the data file to dynamically load the data on to pdf.
Since I am going to start this fresh, I want to get the structure and design correct.
Appreciate your time and help.
Thanks
