Place - Save- Export in Illustrator_Part 8

 Place (import) artwork files

The Place command is the primary method of importing, because it provides the highest level of support for file formats, placement options, and color. After you place a file, use the Links panel to identify, select, monitor, and update it.

●     Choose File > Place, and select the text file you want to place.

●     Select Link to create a link to the file, or deselect Link to embed the artwork in the Illustrator document.

●     Click Place.

●     If you place a PDF file with multiple pages, you can choose which page you want to place and how to crop the artwork.

 

Export artwork

●     Choose File > Export.

●     Select a location for the file, and enter a filename.

●     Select a format from the Save As Type pop‑up menu.

●     Click Save

3.      Choose Illustrator (*.AI) or PDF/ .svg as the file format, and click Save.
