Share assets to cloud documents

Share assets to cloud documents in Adobe Illustrator — with the four heights of help laid out: do it now, make it easier for the next person to accept, work out the right move when you are stuck, and learn the pattern so it stops coming back.

The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task

Share the final art assets for the autumn campaign to cloud documents and give access to marketing and the UK agency. Put the working comps, the approved exports, and an editable master file into a single cloud document folder, set view-only for marketing and edit for the agency, and leave a short message with export instructions and the deadline of Tuesday so reviewers can grab what they need.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I publish these assets to the cloud, make it easy for non-designers to find the right files — clear labels for final vs. working, a top-level readme that lists the approved export sizes, and quick links to the PNG/JPG/print PDFs. Flag anything that could cause a reviewer to hesitate, such as fonts not embedded or images that exceed the recommended resolution.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

I uploaded the master but the agency can't open an editable copy.

I uploaded the editable master and published the cloud document, yet the UK agency says they only have a flattened PDF and cannot edit. I don't know if I set permissions wrong, exported the wrong file, or they opened the public share instead of the workspace. What's the likely diagnosis and the minimal action I should take right now to get them editing before their Wednesday proofing session?

Become — change the pattern

Uploading assets twice and fixing permissions wastes time.

We repeatedly spend hours re-uploading assets and redoing permission fixes because people publish flattened exports instead of editable masters to the cloud. What three practical habits or a single policy change would stop this pattern and make handoffs smooth for agencies and marketing? Keep it enforceable by the design lead and easy to start this week.

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
