    Hi YM_99-

     

    Did you install that Hotfix Almas mentioned in his post? If not, that would be ths first thing I would suggest trying. Here is the link: http://usa.autodesk.com/getdoc/id=DL15412532 

     

    Hope this helps!

    How is size determined when a file is saved?

    09-24-2012 12:20 PM in reply to: YM_99

    My daughter is an artist and loves this software.  

    She is being asked to creat art for posters at school but when she saves the files they are too small to be used.

     

    How does she save files so they are as large as possible?

    Is there setting preferences or saving options that make larger size saves possible?

    WHat do you reccomend she do to save the files ina large as possible format.

     

    Thank you.  -Brian
