Requested Tutorial: Crop Excess Illustrator Artwork If our freebies have benefited you personally or have helped you earn a profit please consider donating via paypal. Donate Now This tutorial was requested (by David) and I’m happy to report, it’s really not very hard to do. If you’ve ever used a clipping mask to hide all of the extra artwork that hangs off the edges of your Illustrator artboard, and wished you could just get rid of the excess, here’s how… Step 1 You can skip this step if you already know your document size, but in order to crop all of your excess artwork to the artboard, you need to know it’s exact size. Step 2 So you have something like the example below with some extra artwork hanging off the edges and you’d like to ‘get rid of the extra.’ With the Rectangle Tool, click once on the artboard to bring up the options, and type in the exact same dimensions as your Illustrator document size to create a rectangle that will match your artboard. Step 3 You need to make sure your rectangle is on top of everything else. Step 4 Step 5

Astuces : macarons Dans toutes mes recettes de macarons, il s'agit de réaliser des petits macarons parisiens traditionnels. Les macarons doubles dont les coques sont réunies par une ganache ou une gelée de fruits. Il n'est pas question de la recette qui navigue sur les blogs reprenant la recette des meringues italiennes, utilisant un sirop de sucre cuit pour lisser des blancs pas entièrement montés. Et je vous déconseille fortement d'essayer de mêler les 2 recettes qui sont très éloignées ! 1. La base pour la réalisation des coques de macarons est toujours la même dans la méthode traditionnelle à la meringue française : du sucre glace, de la poudre d'amandes et des blancs d'oeufs montés avec un peu de sucre en poudre. Le sucre glace. La poudre d'amandes. Les blancs d'oeufs. Les colorants alimentaires. Les autres matières premières. 2. En plus des ingrédients principaux, il faut un peu de matériel pour réaliser les macarons. Un four : peu importe le modèle et la marque. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
