How to move An Artboard around in Illustrator

Want to move your Artboards around in An Illustrator?

How to re-arrange artboard locations is often a necessary part of working in Illustrator. But how is it done?

Working on larger, more complicated projects might involve creating, resizing, and moving artboards around the canvas.

Like many tasks in Illustrator, figuring out how to do them the first time can be challenging, but with practice, they will become second nature.

Here’s how to do it:

1. Open your Adobe Illustrator project file
2. From the left-hand Toolbar, select the Artboard Tool (shift-O)
3. Click anywhere in the middle of your artboard and drag and drop it to the desired location
4. Using the Artboard Tool you can also grab the four edges or corners of your artboard to resize it if needed.
