Export PSD from Illustrator
Could you please help me to improve your product. I want to export PSD from Illustrator that can keep the shape and I can edit the color of this shape on photoshop. Now when I export PSD, all the shapes are rasterized. Because I usually design the website on illustrator. After that, I export to Photoshop. And I use this photoshop to upload to Invision. So that I need the shape is original.

Export for Screens - bigger window size for "prefix"
On export for screens, the "prefix" section: In addition to adding a checkbox for AI filename, make the prefix window longer. I frequently have longer prefixes and it is a minor pain to scroll over to change a prefix name. There's plenty of room in that box to make it the width of the rest of the export screen.

Right align Export destination folder path text on Export for Screens window
My suggestion is to have the 'folder path' text be right aligned in the text box, to have the export destination be more accessible, instead of the root folders.
Currently, I have to click into the folder path text box, then click + drag to see where my file will export to. This is cumbersome and unnecessary.

Metadata enhancements for artboard to invidual file (save/export)
Wish - Metadata enhancements
1) Document level metadata to be exported and added when artboards are exported as individual files
2) Ability to add overrides at artboard level for metadata, which on export is carried forward into the individual files generatedScenario:
I often create a series of images by using arboards, as they are related and worked on as a mini-project (e.g. series of icons, part of online learning story-boards, series of progressive diagrams etc.). I export these for use by individual staff, who use graphics in PowerPoint, Word, LMS, InDesign projects etc.
Note: InDesign docs are…13 votes -
Add Ai, EPS and TIF formats in Export for Screens / Assets dialog
I realize that .pdf is essentially the same as .eps format, but still it would be useful to have the option to export as .eps.

Remove Export Size Limit for PDF (200")
I have designed a 206 Feet Wide banner Designed at 1:12 Scale (206") in illustrator, I am Literally Unable to Send it for Printing, Because i Can't Export it to PDF because its Exceeding 200"...
Illustrator itself can't design something Greater than 227 Inches, While more WORST thing is the Export to PDF file Size Limit, which is currently set to 200". Why to Leave Scaling on Printer RIP, Why Not send a Print Ready File. So if there's something wrong, we could catch and fix it, rather get it Printed.
The problem can be with the Repeated Background Pattern,…

Export for Screens in AI should be just like PS's Version
PLEASE make the export for screens function precisely like the one used in Photoshop.
In particular:
(1) it needs to be possible to export at <0.5x, which is currently the upper limit. If I am producing assets for iOS @3x for whatever reason -- say, they include an unscalable PNG from PS for instance -- to produce the 1x asset I need to export @0.33x, which you don't allow, but PS does. (less important but also mind-boggling is why you don't allow upscaling beyond 33.3x.)
(2) The default export option should be to export to the SAME FOLDER IN WHICH…

Export GPU Quality Images
Because of the difference between CPU and GPU preview, what you see is not what you get on export. Lines are weaker, and lack texture. I would like a feature similarly to overprint feature, to export GPU quality images. See post describing the issue: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/how-can-i-export-as-gpu-quality-not-cpu/td-p/10649456

Where has Export > DXF Gone?
Export as DXF has been removed since the latest update.
This option is essential at our workplace.Is there a reason why it was removed?
3 votesBoth DXF and DWG export options are there now in the 'Save as type' dropdown list in the Export As dialog, in recent versions of Illustrator.
Please comment if these are missing for you.

Add Color Mode "BITMAP" to TIFF Options in FILE->EXPORT->EXPORT AS
Add Color Mode "BITMAP" to TIFF Options in FILE->EXPORT->EXPORT AS
I regularly export high resolution ( 1440 dpi ) black and white tiff images from illustrator. Right now they must be exported as grayscale and then I have to open them in photoshop and convert them to 1 bit images and resave.

Save export settings for individual files
Please put together all the wishes regarding being able to save export settings for individual files, that means custom settings for means, path, formats, prefix and all!
Otherwise I have to change the settings, which are quite specific, every single time I export from a file.3 votes -
Allow us to export PNGs with Transparent and White Background at same time with Export for Screens
I often need to export PNG versions of the same asset with White Background and with Transparent Background.
The way the Export for Screens work, doesn't allow this. You can set multiple export scales, but they all will use the same PNG settings.
It should be able to select Different settings for all scales. Or at least different Backfgrounds ( white/tranparent)
But individual settings for all scales would be better, as then we could have much more control.

Export to resolutions below 72 DPI
Currently export to raster formats seem to have a 72 DPI minimum. For making thumbnail versions of art, it would be great to be able to export to lower resolutions. It is a drag to have to use Photoshop to do a job that it seems like Illustrator could easily do by itself.

Hi,
You can use File > Export > Export for Screens or Window > Asset Export. It allows you to export till 0.5x scale which is 36DPI. Also, this allows you enter height or width by which you can even go below 36DPI as honors what ever size you mention. I hope this helps you.
Thanks & Regards

Export or save as SVG
Please improve dramatically the save as or export option to SVG file!
As many people have already requested, please simplify the code.
But my request deals with SVG export with indic languages: IT JUST SIMPLY DOES NOT WORK AT ALL, even if all corresponding options (Parameters / Text / Indic and Asian line by line composer) have been selected in Illustrator!!!
I attach two screen shots: the first one is Illustrator screen, the second the SVG result. You will see that the devanagari text is completely different.
For your information, I have already mentionned that problem on or two years…4 votes -
Option to export to clipping mask boundaries
When exporting assets to raster formats, it would be a huge time saver if we had an option to use the boundaries of clipping masks as the edge of the exported artwork. I created three triangles and used a circle as a clipping mask in the attached image. You can see that the exported file has a lot of padding around the artwork because the outer edges of the triangles are used as the boundaries of the file.
If there was an additional option to use the clipping mask boundary as the edge of the exported…

More Export options
It would be awesome if the export formats had a couple more custom/individual settings like:
- Active (checkbox)
- Subfolder Name
- Prefix (like the Suffix) and maybe a couple more under a setting panel for the one format like Lowercase etc :)
