Introduction
In this episode, we'll master creating a multi-size social media template. The same logo and elements are placed on all artboards at once, then exported together. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe Illustrator series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. A single campaign usually requires several sizes, square pose, vertical story, and horizontal cover. With artboards and paste on all artboards, everything can be done in one file.
Step 1: Three artboards of different sizes
Create an Instagram post document at 1080p. With the artboard tool, add a story artboard at 1080x1920, and a Facebook cover artboard at 820x312. Return to the selection tool.
Step 2: Background for each artboard
Draw a chocolate coffee background box the same size as each artboard. To save time, draw one box and adjust its width and height through the W and H fields in the control bar.
Step 3: Creating a simple logo
On the first artboard, create the shop logo, a cream circle, and our text in the center. Group both with the control G to make them easier to move.
Step 4: Paste on All Artboards
Select the logo and press control C. Then select edit, paste on all artboards, or alt shift control V. The logo appears immediately in the same relative position on each artboard. Each size requires adjustments.
Step 5: Adjusting the layout
On the story artboard, enlarge the logo and move it to the top center. On the short Facebook cover, reduce the logo and shift it to the left so your text promotion fits on the right.
Step 6: Export all sizes
Add a 20% discount text to all artboards. Save the file as a template, then select export for screen and export all artboards at once in PNG format.
Done!
Done. We have already created three social media artboards. Applied background, created logo, placed logo on all artboards using Paste on All Artboards. Adjusted layout, and exported everything.
