Help with an Adobe Illustrator problem!!
wfpot09 (9 points) | Wed, 2009-02-04 04:21Is there any way that when you go to save the file for web use (jpegs, bitmaps, etc) that it doesnt save the area outside the artboard?
I have put a mask around the artboard so that it doesnt show the stuff outside the artboard but when i go to save the file for web use (jpegs, bitmaps, etc) it still saves all the stuff outside the artboard.
Thanks

that is not happening for me with Ai CS4 if I'm working with web profile.

what do you mean web profile?
right now i have been working designing flyers and what not and sometimes there is somethings (some objects, pics, etc)outside of the artboard and all i want is just what is inside the artboard and nothing else if its outside of it. any ideas other than just erasing everything outside of the artboard....which im sure there has to be some easier way to do it.
thanks

You can use a crop area to do this. Just draw a box around the edges of the art board (snapping can help here), select it and choose: Object>Crop area>Make
Now, when you export a pdf or save for web, the artwork will be cropped at the edges of the crop area.
To edit or delete the crop area, just choose: Object>Crop area>Release.
Does that help?
dude thats exactly what i want to do but when i go to "object" there is no "crop" anywhere to be found. but if i can find what you are explaining thats exactly what i wanna do....thanks for ur help btw
In the Save for Web dialog, cllick on Image Size (in the bottom right corner): select "Clip to Artboard" and hit Apply.
worked. finally. thanks for everyones help
Dude, I was having the same problem for the last three days. You totally saved my life. For. Real.
Namaste
That was on by default for me.
And now I found out that if you want to save the file as JEPG or something like that, but higher resolution than 72dpi (which is for screen) there is another way:
File > Export > Use Artboards (check it) > Range or all (that's up to you :) ) > Save
The file will be bigger only for bleeds, if you have bleeds of course.
