Create an Illustrator Document Preset

I’m asked this question quite often – all you need to do is to set up the document the way you want it (including any swatches, styles and symbols etc.) that you want to open with the preset and then save your file to the document profiles folder:

  • on the Mac OS: Users\(User)\Library\Application Support\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS4\en_GB\New Document Profiles
  • on Windows: Documents and Settings\(User)\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS4 Settings\en_GB\New Document Profiles

Please note that I’m using the UK version in English, so the folder inside of the settings may be different if you’re using another language. The file might aso be hidden on some versions of windows if you want to access it directly (to make amodification to an existing preset, for example).

The profile will be available when you restart Illustrator.
