New Document Profiles are files that control the size, swatches, and graphic styles, and some settings upon making a new document.

by default
To use one of these files, rename it to something you can remember, then move it to a directory following the following pattern:
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator VERSION Settings\LANG\BIT\New Document Profiles
Replacing USER
with your user, VERSION
with AI's version number (CC 2014 = 18, CC 2015 = 19), LANG
with your language and region (en_US
), and BIT
with either x86
or x64
.
The directory for my computer looked like this:
C:\Users\Daniel\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 19 Settings\en_US\x64\New Document Profiles
My name is Daniel, I use CC 2015 (19), on 64 bit in the US.
You can find the profile on the new document screen.
