I use multiple Artboards on my Illustrator documents consistently and don’t know how I could work without them. I use them for versioning, multiple concepts, logo variations and more. If you’re like me, sometimes navigating multiple Artboards on a document can get cumbersome. Luckily, there is a keyboard shortcut!
Quickly Navigate Artboards
On your keyboard, press Shift-Page Up and Shift-Page Down to navigate from one artboard to the next.

THANK YOU!
Navigate artboards with key command SHIFT+PAGEUP and SHIFT+PAGEDN
I don’t know how Adobe forgets these little things.
Wow! I have to try that 🙂
Thanks!
Superb!!! Thanks a ton!
Any way to keep the artboards at 100% when you switch between them? When I do this, it always sets the zoom to “Fit Artboard in Window” — annoying!
have you found a solution to this sam?
Thax..absolutely it will help on my web Mockup Designs…
to those of you on a mbp or iMac with the tiny keyboard:
shift+function+up/down arrow 🙂
it’s the same shortcut as inDesign’s next/prev page which makes it a lot easier to switch between apps
This should be added to the original tip. This info is so hard to find. Thanks!
wow nice, thanks a lot!! Long time I was trying to find this shortcut in my MBP
great tip!
my new iMac using small keyboard that doesn’t have “page up” or “page down” 🙁
Yay!!!
I have always resorted to using the nav arrows at the bottom of the window or just plain scrolling around. This is a lifesaver!
wow thanks, great
drats…i’m on a macbook pro.
Great tip, thanks!
Thanks for the great tip!
