>> Hello, and welcome to this video tutorial brought

In this video, we're going to take a closer look

the workspace is basically a panel set up,

For this tutorial, we will be using this workspace,

and along the way we will be referencing the artboard panel.

Which is situated here, next to my layers panel.

you can simply select the panel up here to reveal it.

If you don't have the artboard panel active,

you can either skip to the previous video,

Or simply come up to the top and you select window

and click artboard to activate your artboard panel.

To follow along with this tutorial, you will need

to open this document I have prepared especially

This can be found in the Introduction folder

Now, you can download this Project folder for free.

So, with the Project folder open, click Introduction,

Artboard, Versions, and select the version

And you should have something that looks like this.

Okay. So, what are artboards in Adobe Illustrator?

Well, to put it simply, they are canvases

to create multiple artboards in a document.

This is useful if you want to create small documents spreads,

to create various versions of your artwork.

You can even use this method to create digital presentations.

So, here I have a document open, which is like a small leaflet.

numbered them and colored them accordingly.

Now if we come over to our side panels and navigate

This list represents all the artboards contained

As you can see, I am currently zoomed out quite a bit,

so we can see the entire document artboard.

Though, if I choose a artboard in the panel, let's say,

Artboard six, here, come to the gray area to the right

and double click, we can quickly navigate

If I double click on the artboard name, however,

this will enable you to rename the artboard.

Okay. So, I'm just going to zoom out a little

Okay. So, let's say we want to make some changes

Let's say we want to reorder some of the artboards.

For example, I'm going to select Artboard Four

of the Artboard panel we can see some buttons.

With the Artboard Four selected, I'm going to press the Move

Notice how the artboard moves down on the panel,

but nothing really changes on the canvas area.

Well, this is because we now have to refresh the arrangement.

We can do this by coming to the top right-hand corner

of the Artboard panel and click on the Menu icon.

For now, we are just going to click Ok, and upon click,

we will see the artboard has been repositioned.

I'll simply select the artboard on the panel.

But this time, click on the Move Up button.

on the artboard menu panel Options button,

select Rearrange Artboards, and click Ok.

And the page is back where it was to start.

Okay. So, let's say we want to remove an artboard.

This can be done by selecting the artboard

Simply come to the bottom of the Artboard panel and click Delete.

Now, notice how the artwork still remains.

So, we're going to have to select the objects and then,

delete them, though, now we have this space

Just like earlier, if we come to the top right
