    Thanks! Finally found a workaround the canvas size limitations in Illustrator, as I work on signs, and many times these or at least the substrate where they will be going is larger than the standard limited 227x227 in.

    Good tutorial, but you are changing the artboard size, not the canvas.

      Look again, to get a larger canvas you have to start with a larger art board

    I'm trying to design a billboard with 7 m width but it doesn't allow me with illustrator. Should I scale and then the print could take care of the real size? it's all vectors and letters.
