Saving Documents

Today, I learned how to properly save documents by adding metadata and keywords so that I can easily find a certain document.

Saving document in Illustrator is the same process in any application, but saving metadata in a document to make it searchable by programs like Adobe Bridge is completely different.

Document Save Dialog Box under Description Tab

Firstly, Head to File menu then File info, opening a dialog box. There’s several different tabs within the box, for example, Description, which contains useful options for adding metadata. Not only can contain the document title and information about the author, but more importantly, you can provide keywords for the document. This comes in hand when saved work from years ago becomes easily searched and found.
