Merging 2 documents, and keep the layers structure

Here's my problem :
my workmates and me are working on seperate files (.ai) for our projects, then, we use to merge our document in one main document to save the final project and to make the exports.
BUT, i found nothing in illustrator or on the web about how merging and keep the structure. And on our project, we have a loooot of layers, and it's barely impossible to copy/paste each layer at once. (i'm sure a bunch of you had this problem once.)
On photoshop, it's quite simple, you can export some layers/group in a new document or in a opened.
So i'd like to know if any of you have a solution (if i'm not understood, i can try to explain better my problem), or if it's a known issue (and if the next version will do it well !!!).
Thanks a lot for any answer that will help me <3

First check that the layer structure is identical in both files, both the layer options and the layer stacking order.
Now check Paste Remembers Layers in the layers palette.
Then you can copy and paste between files and things will stack into their correct layers.

  • I have several pdf files in my computer which are organized in folders. I want to transfer them to IBooks (in my Ipad) and keep the folder structure I use in my computer. Is it possible to do it? Do I need any other app?

    By design, the organizer (and any other database management systems) is there to prevent you from duplicating your media files. The catalog management allows you to have the same image in different categories or albums. Duplication in different folders is to be absolutely avoided.
    The same image file can have multiple tags like 'family', 'vacations', 'birthdays' and be present in three different albums with the same names. On obvious advantage is less disk space. Another one with your present folder system is that if you edit one of your duplicates, the other ones are unchanged.
    I don't see an easy way to make your present folder structure simplified for the organizer ...

  • How do I extract pages from an accessible document and keep the tags?

    I have a 300 page document that contains tags. I need to extract 5 pages with complex <Table>  structures and maintain the tags. I also want to Import the same pages into another document while maintaining the Tags.
    My efforts this far gives the 5 extracted pages and there are Tags but they no longer seem connected to the pages.
    Am I asking too much?

    Thank you very much for the assistance. I ended up deleting all of the pages and Tags but those that I wanted to "export". Saving that as a file and combining it successfully.
    I did indeed follow the instructions for Extracting, but as with many things in Acrobat, it has its issues.
    Here is what I think happened that ensured failure before. First I assumed that if I export the pages the Tags "belonging" to those pages would export as well without difficulty. For each page I created a new Section and named it for the page number. So with the auto-tagging completed I created Section for each page and moved the Tags under the proper Sections. However I had not completed the process for the entire document when I needed to do the Export. I apparently left Tags belonging to later pages in the document (they were buried in Sections of Sections).
    When I originally exported, I had the pages I wanted and a lot of Tags relating to pages at the beginning of the document as well as Tags for pages near the end of the document. Clearly the Tags (in the Tag View) for the pages not exported were dead. But so were the Tags for the pages that were exported.
    I expect that not having the Tags in proper order made Acrobat lose its mind during the export process.

  • Is it possible for automator to convert all word documents in my dropbox folder to apple's "pages" on iCloud and keep the same folder organization?

    Is it possible for automator to convert all word documents in my dropbox folder to apple's "pages" on iCloud and keep the same folder organization?  I am a teacher and want to switch from using microsoft office on my macbook pro to using pages/number/keynote.  I am hoping to get an iPad next year and go "paperless" with lesson plans and gradebooks and I heard that pages/numbers/keynote are great on the ipad.  I'd like to write an automator script (workflow?) to convert all my documents in dropbox to pages and have them stored on iCloud, then be able to access the files on my macbook pro and ipad.  Thanks!

    Create an AppleID under different email addresses for each family member at http://appleid.apple.com
    If they don't already have their own email address just setup a free one with Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail or whoever you prefer.
    Then on each device sign into iMessage with the users own AppleID in:
    Settings > Messages > Send &amp; Receive > Tap AppleID at top > Sign Out, then sign back in again with the correct AppleID.

    Hello @MYBOU2 ,
    Welcome to the HP forum.
    What you are asking should not be too hard. The key factor right now is: what is your operating system?
    The process is different on a Mac compared to a Windows computer.

  • How do I convert .txt to .pdf and keep the formatting

    I have a large .txt file that I would like to convert to .pdf.  I have tried to print the file and choose Adobe PDF but the output is just a mess.  I loose all the formatting and get blank pages every so often.  Does anyone know if is possible to convert .txt to .pdf and keep the formatting.  I would try a virtual printer application but I am not able to just install any application on my office computer.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    It may be a bit late for you now but in future (and for anyone else interested) I would recommend copying the text into a word document and changing the text font to Consolas. Adjust the size to fit the page again and it should match the original notepad formatting.

  • I bought my wife a 5c for xmas and set it up under my itunes id. She didn't have one. Every so oftem my ID still shows up under different aps. I set her up an apple id now and want to reset everything to her ID. How do I do it and keep the apps?

    How do I switch this phone over to my Wifes new Apple ID and keep the phone lists,, apps etc that I set up? (unlocked) New

    You must first go to your Apple ID and take the device off of your listed devices and then wait until it is updated accordingly ...Next link the iPhone to her Apple ID.  go to the app store and on to 'featured' scroll down to the bottom and it shows your apple id, click it and sign out and you can then sign in with your new apple id
    If you mean your iCloud ID, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.  If you are signing back into the same account, just with a renamed ID, choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted.  Your data will be synced back when you sign back in.  However, if you are changing to a new account with a new ID and need to migrate your synced data to the new account, choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Then choose Merge to upload your data to the new account when you sign back in and turn on your iCloud data syncing.
    If you want to keep your photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Sae to Camera Roll).

  • How do I set up pages for mac and ipad to share a document and keep them synced.

    How do I set up pages for mac and ipad to share a document and keep them synced.

    You can upload them from Mac to iCloud and then download on the iPad. They only directly sync between iOS devices. The Mac version of Pages has more options that are not available on iOS. If you use a font that is not available on iOS it will change the font. Some layout options aren't available either.

  • How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11

    How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11?

    I've met the problem too before. but i solved it with  Audio Converter Mac instead of iMovie. If you have similar situation that just want to keep audio but not video, and if your file format is not workable in iMovie, you can use the Audio Converter for help too. it can easily help to extract audio soundtrack from any video format. Or if you need to convert one audio format to another, it is a good choice too, because it supports many common audio output formats.

    Add both libraries to iPhoto Library Manager.  Then select the events or albums that you want to copy from library A  and drag them to library B in iPLM.

    I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone.  Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

    Please clarify your "Elements 12". Is that as in Photoshop Elements 12 (photo editor) or Premiere Elements 12 (video editor). And, on what computer operating system is the program running?
    Your question is pointing to Photoshop Elements 12 and that you have posted in the wrong forum. If this is a Photoshop Elements 12 question as I believe it is, please post your thread in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum using the following link provided for your convenience

  • How to Restrict printing the document using IRM for a Single Document?Allow printing for some documents and restrict the printing for particular documents in same document library?

    Can we able to Configure the IRM in Document Level in SharePoint Document libraries?
    The document library contains multiple document sets , Can we restrict the printing according to document sets? Allow printing for some documents and restrict the printing for particular documents in same document library
     Is this possible?Please suggest.

    Yes, that can be done. But note that all administrators will have the same right to print, so you need to make sure the users are not administrators. You can include a macro to disable printing, but if the users disable macro, they can print the documents.
    Hence, there is no foolproof way to prevent printing documents. If you still need a foolproof security, PDF format provides password based security (viewing doesn't require a password) that can be implemented to prevent the document from printing,
    which doesn't require any special scripts and is tough.
