Before Original sample
After Ready to mirror
Ready. Mirror the sample to compare the result.
Blue outline = moved object. Dashed outline = selected object. The locked marker and guide stay in place.
Prepared browser illustration. This demo does not open Illustrator or edit an AI file. The Arabic text is already translated.
Adjust the mirror options
Whole-artboard/file processing skips locked objects, hidden objects and guides.
Watch the arrow and corner decoration. Text frames stay readable in either mode.
Changes paragraph alignment as text moves. Centered text keeps its alignment.
What changed in the sample?
Position and artwork direction are separate.
Special Mirror repositions objects without reversing their shapes. Classic Mirror also flips non-text artwork. Compare the arrow direction, footer decoration and page number.
Each artboard has its own mirror axis.
Choose the whole-file example to see both artboards change. In the current-artboard example, the second artboard stays untouched. Whole-page manual acceptance in your installed Illustrator version remains a separate check.
