To split long paths:
Choose File > Document Setup. Then choose Printing & Export from the pop-up menu 
at the top left of the Document Setup dialog box.
Select Split Long Paths, and click OK. Illustrator splits paths as needed when you print or 
save the file.
To split a stroked path:
Split the path with the scissors tool.
To split a compound path:
Choose Object > Compound Paths > Release to remove the compound path.
Break the path into pieces using the scissors tool.
Redefine the pieces as compound paths. 
To split a mask:
Choose Object > Clipping Mask > Release to remove the mask.
Break the path into pieces using the scissors tool.
Redefine the pieces as masks. 
To rejoin a split path:
Delete any extra lines created with Split Long Paths by selecting the lines and pressing 
Delete.
Select all of the split paths that made up the original object.
Choose Window > Pathfinder and click the Add to Shape Area button in the Pathfinder 
palette. The path is rejoined, with an anchor point placed at each intersection where a split 
path was reconnected.
Using a printer override (EPSF Riders) file
The EPSF Riders file sets the screen frequency, angle, spot function, and flatness for all files, 
or adds an annotation or an error handler message to all files. The settings you specify in 
the EPSF Riders file override any settings you specified using the Separation Setup dialog 
box. Before you can create an EPSF Riders file, you must move the EPSF Riders plug-in into 
the Plug-ins folder.
The Make Riders filter creates an Adobe Illustrator EPSF Riders file. The EPSF Riders file 
contains PostScript code that, when added to an Adobe Illustrator file, overrides how a file 
prints. The Delete Riders filter removes the EPSF Riders file from your system. Only one file, 
named EPSF Riders, is created when you choose the Make Riders filter. You cannot create 
multiple Riders files, and you must not change the name of the EPSF Riders file. 
To use the EPSF Riders plug-in:
Move the Riders plug-in into the Plug-ins folder. The Riders plug-in is located in the 
Riders Folder, within the Utilities folder.
Once you have moved the Riders plug-in to the Plug-ins folder, quit Illustrator and then 
restart the program. Restarting the program acknowledges the presence of the Riders 
plug-in the Plug-ins folder.
