@gibbous.does.branding: See your design at its Actual Size in Adobe Illustrator before sending it to print. For many designers it can be difficult to envision what their project will look like at its print size so they use a physical ruler to figure out its size on their screen. Adobe illustrator has a feature built in. Go to Preferences, General, and select “Display Print Size at 100% Zoom”. Then press CMD+1 ( Mac ) CTRL+1 ( Win ) to see it’s actual physical size in illustrator. #graphicdesign #designtutorial

For InDesign users, set up CMD+w for trim view in illustrator too 👀🔥 (is it CMD or shift? I always forget when I'm away from a keyboard lol)

I'm confused.... where have you specified your screen size? like what if I'm using a 60 inch monitor vs a laptop?

I’ve tried this and it doesn’t work. When I check Actual Size it zooms out and makes the artwork smaller that it’s been designed. I’ve double checked and my artboard is correct but the view is most definitely not. One work around is to hold a piece of paper against the screen, adjust the view to match and the save this as a New View. Now I’ve got presets in place for all the sizes I tend to use.

This is so smart but what if it’s too big for the screen?

You can also set a keyboard shortcut to run these steps as an action, so you can see it by a click of a button.
