Step Eight: Another way to create additional artboards is

to click on the artboard’s name with the Artboard tool to

make it active, hold the Option (PC: Alt) key, click-and-drag

away from the source artboard, and release. This creates

a duplicate artboard, but it will be labeled with the word

“copy” at the end, such as Artboard 1 copy. You can still

resize each artboard independently (more on resizing later).

Step 10: We have two ways to export artboards. The first

way is to go to File>Export>Artboards to Files. In the resulting

dialog, you can choose the destination and File Type, and

then click Run. This will export all the artboards to this file

type. Now you can check that they’ve saved okay in your

destination folder.

Step Nine: Now that we’ve created a set of artboards, let’s

cover saving and exporting them before we move on to

other ways to use them. In this example, we’ve added some

new images to each of the three artboards, which are now

ready for exporting. We can export each artboard individu-

ally as JPEGs or PNGs for uploading.

Step 11: If you want to export only one of the artboards,

Right-click on the artboard layer group in the Layers panel,

and choose Export As. Choose your settings in the Export As

dialog, and click Export All. Now you can name your file and

choose where to save it.
