I'm designing graphics to be cut with a laser cutter. I often need two copies of the same document - one horizontal and one vertical so I can pick which version fits the material on the laser cutter bed.
I'm finding it hard to rotate an entire document. I can select all the object or layers and rotate that easily but the canvas does not rotate with it. I tried using an artboard created from my selection but it does not rotate with the objects either and although I can rotate the artboard, because the objects rotate about a different axis from the artboard I lose the objects off the side somewhere. I can't select both my objects and the artboard to rotate them at the same time.
Next I tried copying the objects and creating a new document from the clipboard and that seems to have created it as a pixel layer because my stroke widths are now in pixels. For laser cutting it's important that the lines be a particular width or they will not cut.
Help! All suggestions welcomed because I have to do this a lot.
