I just finished designing letterhead for a client, got the okay and then proceeded to create 20 pages of advanced graphs. When I showed the client the final drafts they decided they wanted the letterhead altered. Is there anyway of updating the files all of the files at once instead of going in and doing each one separately?

Thanks :eek:

You can create an action to help ease the workload, but Illustrator offers no batch funcionality.

This is where InDesign is nice. You would place the letterhead on the master, should it happen to change you only have to edit the master and not individual pages. However that is not going to help you much now, but food for thought for the future.

Clients ALWAYS change their mind.

Also, you could have placed the logo as a linked file...
