Multi page pdf import - need option to distribute artboards
Here is the comparison of Importing 300 pages pdf vs creating same 300 pages via new document dialogue. Are we still in the same product?
Expected .Distributing the artboards evenly or even giving options to distribute artboards during pdf import.
Observed: facepalm

Shivendra, because it will let you import more pages and utilize your precious canvas space more effectively. Because rearrangement is slow and you will waste time on redrawing page contents.

Dear @Shivendra Agarwal Thanks captain obvious. :) People who, unlike you, actually working with the product are definitely using rearrange artboards feature after opening the multipage PDF files. Everý time. Because the default arrangement is blatantly implausible anyways.
As for the second part. You do arrange the artboards and question "why" can be easily answered by looking at how exactly you arrange them by default and using common sense. AI still has a limited size of the working area. place new objects in the middle leaving some space around.
Instead of doing user centered design and saying your users "thank you" for doing your job and committing bugs, you actually going "good enough" way and wasting our personal time for arguing with you about why you have to do it properly from the beginning. If you due to some cultural limitations to can't understand why releasing unpolished features is bad for the business the market will explain it to your bosses and they will explain it to you.
Kind regards

Use rearrange artboards feature after opening the multipage PDF file.
File open can have variable size pages, unlike file new scenario where all pages are of same size. So both the cases should not be compared. Also, why to slow down file-open when rearrange can easily be done on need basis after open!
