Using Shapes to Create Artwork for a Postcard - Adobe Illustrator CC - page 90

Note
You can set up a document for different kinds of output, such as print,
Web, video, and more, by choosing a Profile. For example, if you are
designing a Web-page mockup, you can use a Web document profile,
which automatically displays the page size and units in pixels, changes the
color mode to RGB, and changes the raster effects to Screen (72 ppi).
