Create a custom-sized document
Creating a new document in the specific size you need is easy. To create a new document of a specific size, tap the New Document button. This will open the Document Picker where you can choose any of the Preset empty Templates.
From the Document Picker, click the Show Details (1) button at the bottom left corner of this window. This will automatically bring up document size options as:
- A - width and height
- B - units
- C - You can also check the “Save Custom Template” if you want to save those properties to create a custom Artboard Template.
Finally click the Create button (2), and the new document will open automatically.
Create a document using a preset
From the Document Picker, you can choose any of the Artboard Preset. Those work as empty templates with the correct sizing and units you need.
By tapping on each template card, an empty document will automatically open.
On the left side of the Document Picker, you'll find the categories to help you navigate the Preset Document Templates sections as:
- Paper
- Devices
- Resolutions
- Social Media
- Icons
Here, you can choose to view all of the templates at the same time, or to view only your own custom templates (A).
Scroll down or tap the category names in the menu to find the template you need quickly.
Save a new custom Artboard template
You'll be able to find your saved Artboard templates in the Custom category, which you can access from the Sidebar.
Double-click on your custom template to create a new document using that template. Right-click on any template to delete it.
