Amazing video! Simple concepts but done quickly and effectively. Love that it goes through your actual workflow and includes shortcuts, thank you for this!
thanks for a short yet information packed tutorial! just wanted to ask how we can add bleed to this? as screen printing with no bleed leaves zero room for error that could show up as gaps. thanks again!
thanks so much! i usually select the art that needs the base (usually all of it) and copy and paste in place (cmd+shift+v), then use the pathfinder to make it one solid shape. then i go to object > offset path and select -.25px
Very direct and clear. Thank you! I got two questions: 1. Do you mean to send this Ai file to the printer, or do I need to print it to pdf file? 2. I watched other video that didn't separate each color to separate layers. Is it neccessary to do so?
Hi, what happens when I have a lot of paths in the art and the base can't be unified? How do you make those types of bases? I tried to combine with merge but it didn't work. Do you have any advice?
In general, it's best practice to try to keep your path and points counts as low as possible. They should still be able to merge with large amounts, though. Did you get an error or a crash?
I followed your video however the colors are not showing up in the separations panel. I have no idea what is going on. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks Nick!
@@nickqtv I'm having the same problem. My swatches are pantone, spots, cmyk. But theres nothing in the sep panel. The overprint preview button is grayed out and wont allow me to click it. Great video btw
This is honestly the perfect walk through! Easy to follow and you make it sound so easy. Thank you!!
Thank you 🙏🏼

Make sure you are in the CMYK color mode and that you are have overprint preview turned on
@@nickqtv That worked. Thank you very much Nick! It's been a long day.
