Save files on your local computer to keep editing infinitely. Also, save versions for easy access and sharing with your team and clients.
This video introduces you to the different ways you can save your Illustrator files: locally (on your computer), as a cloud document for easy access anywhere, as a PDF, and as an image.

Save your document locally
Save your document on your computer as an Illustrator file (.AI)—called a native file format—to preserve all Illustrator data, including multiple artboards and layers.
Save as a cloud document
Save your work as a cloud document so you can access it from any device where Illustrator is installed. Cloud documents are auto-saved, allow you to revert back to previous versions, and are easily shared with others.
Save as a PDF
Save your Illustrator document as a PDF for printing, sharing, or review. Anyone with a free reader can view the file.
Export selected artwork
From your artwork, quickly generate assets of different sizes and file formats, such as .PNG, .JPEG, or .SVG, using the Asset Export feature.
You'll get step-by-step instructions that guide you around the interface.
