Install Brushes as a default in Illustrator

Don’t want to install your Illustrator Brushes over and over again? Understandable. Below, we’ll explain two methods to do this.

Method 1:

1

When you’ve already installed the brushes, open the Brush Panel of the Brush set you want to add.

2

Click on the hamburger menu in the top left corner and select “Persistent”’. That’s it!

We’ve noticed Illustrator can take a bit longer to load when starting up. Choose your “Persistent” brushes wisely and avoid having tons of Brushes selected with this option.

Method 2:

1

In your Finder, go to “Applications”.

2

Click on the version of Adobe Illustrator that you’re using.

3

Open the “Presets” folder and go to “Brushes

4

Create a new folder in the Brushes folder named “Topia Supply”.

5

Copy your .ai brush files from the product folder and paste it in the new Topia Supply folder.

6

Go to Window > Brushes and click on the Brush Libraries Menu on the bottom left corner of the Panel.

7

When you unfold “Topia Supply” you’ll find all the brushes you’ve pasted in that folder in Finder.
