When Pathfinder is selected a tool box will appear.
Additionally, “Pathfinder” can also be accessed by using the keyboard shortcut “Shift + Ctrl or Command + F9”.
After “Window” has been selected, “Pathfinder” can be found in the drop down box. This feature can be found on the uppermost toolbar by selecting “Window”. This feature is very important as it allows you to do a number of different things through the use of paths. Adobe Illustrator has many different features, but for this post I will focus on the Pathfinder feature in Illustrator. Through this post I hope to teach you how to use an important feature that allows the user to do a number of things. Does anyone know of any way to speed up this add command, im guessing its just simple boolean algebra so it cant be that cpu intensive or can it? The problem is it expanded the artwork fine to loads of little objects but adding these together seems like mission impossible for the software.In this blog post I will be creating a tutorial for Adobe Illustrator. The thing is my pc's a dual 2.4ghz xeon with 1GB ram and its taking this long to compute, i was told that filters in illustrator were multithreaded but they only seem to use 50% processing resources.
I hope someone may have a solution for me, i am working on some large format artwork in Illustrator 10, the problem I have is working with some very complex artwork created using sillouette from bitmap images, this artwork I had to then expand to fills and strokes so that I could cut through the artwork in the right places, now what i need to do is turn all these objects into one, I select everything I want to combine go to pathfinder hit "add" and then wait from 5:30pm last night till 9:30am this morning for the "applying Filter/effect" progress bar to finish, I then hit expand to get rid of all of the stray points in the artwork and it all dissapears.
