Zoom Function - Illustrator

An easy shortcut that is commonly used is:

"Command" + "-" to zoom out from your perspective a small amount

and

"Command" + "+" to zoom in from your perspective a small amount

*Replace "command" with "control" if using a PC.

Although, a more precise was is to go up to the View Menu and select Actual Size, which will bring you quickly to 100% zoom level.

The short cut to this is the "Command" + "1"

*Again, "control" if using PC

To fit an artboard to screen, open the artboard panel and double click on the artboard that you wish to do this on

*double-click next to the name, not on it, else you'll select the name instead of zooming!
