Is there a tool or function (in Illustrator or InDesign) that selects any form and 'punches' a 'hole' of this form down through several objects for the paper or the work plan?

Your objects punch must be in a large group; It will cut through all that is below.
Create the shape you want to cut and set it to black Uni. Select your group and your form and (in the transparency palette), click make mask.
Uncheck the Clip, and then return to the palette.

Impossible... CS5 is long before there was such a thing as a cloud subscription
When you buy any program from CS5, which is no longer sold, you will receive a serial number to enter during the installation

How to select several objects on the layers panel in Illustrator CC
I have a work of guge and I need to select a small group (about 10-100) of objects from 4000 bunk and then group objects ' em/split-to-layers for ease of use (this is an infographic of the human body for medical institute)
There IS NO way by selecting in the Web because they are overlapping and sometimes not visible at all.
in CS5 there was a function to select several objects to the icon selection Alt + click - move on the right in the Layers panel.
Now the mode duplication towers - on when I try to run it.
Then.
Ho I select several object without having to click through thousands of them? (I need to drag-select)
IM totally frustrated.
As long there is no deliberately locked object, you can do the following:
Drag on the lock column in the layer panel
Object > unlock all (there is a shortcut for this)
-> unlocked objects are selected

Is this really the case with the free player, the clients can access is no longer a PDF to add comments and mark out? We have always used a PDF file for the reviews of books/documents, but now we hear customers that there is no way to add comments and annotation. Please let me know if this is the case, or if there is a solution
'' If '' they use the free software Adobe Reader and "If" there is no security prevent this, he should be able to add comments.
It'll be hard to say what's wrong without more details such as what exact version of the reader they use, they open the pdf file in a browser or in the player itself and what exactly happens when they try to add comments.

MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid 2010) OPERATING SYSTEM OS X El Capitan (Version 10.11.2) Processor Intel Core i7 2.66 GHz Memory 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 Startup disk Macintosh HD Graphics Intel HD Graphics 288 MB The past several times I completely stopped my MacBook Pro and booted back up Xcode is the first thing to open, and it opens a window, I've never seen before called 'ICloudSetupView.strings '.
I went to check if Xcode is checked as a startup item (I usually put off because I do not often use XCode) and Xcode is not even on my list of items that opens automatically when I boot.
HOWEVER, there is a new startup item called "ICloudSetupView.strings" that has a "sort" of "Strings File".
I traced the file in its location and found several others with the timestamp date same creation and now I'm worried.
The path to the file is:
System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/FinderKit.Framework/versions/A/Resources/SK. LP roj/ICloudSetupView.strings
The file has only the following 2 lines of code (technically 1 with overflow) that you can see in the image:
bplist00 "_uHD " Driveo-7F-8GX.title_H4f-Te-Tzu.title\iCloud
3 @
A screenshot of the Xcode file that opens and my preferences of start programme is attached.
I'm quite worried about it, especially because it IS NOT defined as part of open automatically but it is.
I searched online and found no something like this.
Anyone know what it is?
Or what the code does?
Is this a virus or spyware?
It is not spyware. Simply remove it from your login items.

Illustrator CC 2015 unusable? (Leaving unexpectedly or does not show the work plans)
For some reason any work plans are not displayed after that I opened a new document in the new Version of Ai. When I then draw a rectangle of base it does not show.
Work plans are activated - so 'NO' I didn't just turn them off.When I restart HERE it just closes unexpectedly...
I just can't use right now and I really need work. Unfortunately Adobe didn't about uninstalling older Versions in the cloud Crective update dialog. So I'm pretty stuck right now.
Someone has similar problems?
Is there any fixes for this?
@all: it's just the 'novelty' "GPU-performance"...
turn it off in the settings directly on the icon of the rocket in the menu bar above.

Dear professionals CC,
After having upgraded to win10, I can open creative cloud, but it seems that my photoshop cannot be started, it became the 'trial' rather than 'open' when run CC.
After the reboot, open when CC, apps changed back to "open", but when I click on the background to open, it does not work. On the contrary, it seems Norton won't let me open it because there is error mesg of Norton but no details about the error.
Now it looks like two Norton anti virus and upgrade to win 10 result able to launch photoshop. Anyone have similar issue? and how to you fix this?
Thank you much for the help!

Illustrator is the addition of extra pixels to copied work plans
Hello
I do web design prototyping. I designed my homepage at size 1024 x 768 and then copied the artboard to create excessive state of the menu. I continue to copy the work plan for my homepage until I got 8 copies to edit with different contents. Each of them reported size 1024 x 768 in illustatror.
The problem started when I exported JPEG individual work plans and my first work plan (home) was 1024 x 768; While the rest of the copies (who said to be this same size inside the Illustrator) is 1025 x 768 pixels. The small movement caused by this extra pixel is sometimes seen as I program the hot HTML.
(JPEG-work plan home original vs home State too JPEG copied from the original)
Please I need help, I tried everything and nothing seems to work. There is nothing outside the area of work plan and guides are out of service, as well as the presentation layer is disabled or deleted, nothing works.
Please, I beg you! Help!
If you double-click the work plan tool to display the artboard options, you will probably see fractions for the X Y coordinates.
Make sure that it didn't there ar no value fractional pixel before exporting, the artboard and the position of art

CC 2015 tool of work plan: overview of tuning fork, moving or duplicating
With the release of 2015 CC, scaling, displacement or duplication is more than a work plan with the work plan tool seems to have a live preview. This lack results now massive conjecture (try, mess up, cancel, repeat) when you try to reposition or plans of work in double using the tool.
To reproduce:
- Select the work plan tool
- by dragging a control, is the scale on the artboard a transparent overview of the new size?
- move the Board graphics and do drag, is there a transparent overview?
- duplicate the artboard with Shift + Alt + do drag, is there a transparent overview?
CC for 2014 and earlier had the preview. y at - it a preference that was disabled in the update that must be reactivated to restore this feature?
Thanks for any comments.
I took a stab in the dark GPU rendering and disabled in preferences. Low and behold, the previews in moving and scaling of the artboard have been restored.
It seems that in Illustrator GPU rendering is not 100% ready for the prime time. Still a few bugs to crush.

Why is the crop tool of Pathfinder removing elements of work plan?
Hi all
I have a drawing with shapes that pass the complex vector graphic board. I want to reframe the elements contained in the work plan without using a clipping mask. My problem is when I draw a rectangle equal to the artboard, place it on its own in the upper layer, unlock and show all forms (there is no open path) and select all the items, the results do not give me a good vector to be cropped. For some reason, it removes items from the artboard and leaves the white lines where my ways are... live the paths of the steam! (there is no transparent and everything is in RGB)
Here are the before and after of the background of the work. Any ideas?
before:

Thank you!!
For some reason, it removes items from the artboard
The reason depends specifically on the manner in which your paths are drawn.
You should be able to do this:
1. place a horizontal guide at the bottom of the artboard.
2 knife tool: Position cursor outboard of the artboard. Press Alt. Mousedown (alignment of the guide). ShiftDrag to the right at the bottom of the work.
However, this assumes behavior reliable and accurate Snap on tool set, which is not Illustrator.
To avoid all the warnings of illustrators Boolean path very badly implemented combination offers (the so-called Scouts):
1 rectangle tool. Draw a rectangle on the artboard outboard, alignment of the upper part of it to the bottom of the artboard.
2 copy.
3 ShiftClick one of the paths that you want to cut out.
4. click on the "punch" (subtract) Pathfinder (assuming that the CS5 or CS4; altClick the same Pathfinder in CS3 and earlier versions.)
5 paste in front. Repeat steps 3 & 4.

How to export an object, illustrator as a svg without a work plan?
I have several objects that are close together and irregularly shaped. If I try to export these objects individually on illustrator and import them into Edge animate, they overlap each other due to their work plans square. In other words, the forms of the objects overlap, but their work plans will overlap because the work plans are square and do not follow the contours of the shape. Is there a way to create an svg would be a square background? Kind of how a png can have a transparent background. Can a work plan that conforms to the contours of the shape of the object cause a svg?
Hello
Have you tried to 'copy' object of Illustrator and 'paste' to animate. Animate will be sticking as svg. And the background of this kind of svg are transparent,
Thank you

How can I change the order of the pages of work plans in Illustrator CS6?
How can I change the order of pages / print order of artboards in Illustrator CS6? I know that it was negligence in this regard griped in previous versions, once work plans have been introduced, but surely, it's been fixed now. It is only fair that I can't understand how do. It is not intuitive by any means.
Open the Panel work plans (in the window menu) and drag work here plans to change the order. When the work plan tool is the current tool, selection of a plan of work in the work plans Panel will highlight the workplan in the workspace. The first column in the work plans Panel indicates a number representing the page / print order. The second column is the name given by the Illustrator which you can change in the Control Panel, while the artboard tool is selected.

Import Illustrator without work plan?
I asked this in some semi-connexes discussions, but I think it is worth its own thread. Forgive the multiple validations.
I use AE and Illustrator CS6. In the past when you have imported a file Illustrator in AE it came into AE with the game of the box enclosing exactly on the edges of the real work, which means that the work plan was ignored. In CS6 there don't seem to be a way to achieve. Each file that import comes with the box set including the size of the artboard.
It would be nice if I was starting a new project, but the problem is that I'm working on a project that was created in CS5. All previous Illustrator files that were imported came AE without the artboard. I need to change some of these assets, but when I got the file from Illustrator and return to EI EI, the edited file comes with the return the bounding box restore the size of the artboard instead of art - screwing totally recording in the model.
No there is no way to say AE CS6 to ignore the Illustrator artboard?
As soon as I opened your file have I knew what the problem was. Just a single layer. Try adding a layer to your star.ai, it may be empty.
Back as long as I remember that you must have more of a layer to import a file WAS in the form of Composition. I think that it has always been thus.
