CS4’s Artboard tool is really nice. I use it all the time.

If you group the artwork and then click on it with the Artboard tool it auto selects the object’s bounding box. Very quick. I then zoom to fit and save.

The amount of time it saves and the neat view of the artwork on reopening as well as when you place it in a document saves enormous amounts of time.

Hi Khawla, Illustrator CS4 is different. Use the new Artboard Tool to define the crap area. When you export the image, remember to check “Use Artboard”.

I tried to do this in CS4, but could not find Crop Area under the Object menu.
