: Can Illustrator export an artboard and have it ignore paths that extend into it from other artboards? I’m working with a design that essentially looks like a mosaic of tiles, like this:

I’m working with a design that essentially looks like a mosaic of tiles, like this:



I’ve written a script that splits this single-artboard graphic into individual artboards that retain the position of the original block. You can then use the built-in SVG export tool to export all or some of the blocks.

Many of these blocks contain graphics that have a clipping mask applied to hide the elements that extend outside of the block’s boundaries. Problem is, if I export “block g” when “block h” has hidden paths that extend into “block g,” then ““block g” will be exported with the “block h” data in tow.

Is there a way around this?
