One feature that users have been requesting for years is the ability to have multiple pages in Illustrator. In CS3, the Crop Areas feature was a first step toward fulfilling this notion. Now in CS4, you can create documents with up to 100 Artboards right in the Document Setup window (File>New>Document Setup). All you need to do is specify the number of Artboards, the Spacing between them, a Grid/Arrangement, and press OK to open. But, will this ability to create multiple Artboards replace InDesign as a layout application? No I don’t think so. Why? For the same reason that the drawing tools in InDesign do not make it a great program for designing logos.
