I'm using Corel Draw 10 and when I import any eps or ai files and want to place them on my page it won't show anything. they just disapear. I then go to edit select all object and there is nothing there. I'm on a sony vaio laptop with Vista. When I used this same program on my old desktop (rip) with windows xp I never had a problem like that.
Files I export as eps then I can later import them without a problem. Other peoples files I have trouble with.
Can somebody give me a hand with this problem?
Thanks
Which Illustrator Version Files are u trying to import? Corel 10 is too old to import even Illustrator 9 and 10 files forget about CS3 and CS4. It's time to upgrade to corel X3 or X4 now.
Not sure how to tell what version they were created with. Like you said I guess it's time to upgrade.
It's just hard to justify upgrading for that only reason.
Your only alternative is to get everyone else to save their files as MUCH earlier versions of AI. Corel 10 filters are written for the Illustrator version that was issued the year before Corel 10 was issued, I think.
Even if the upgrade is done AI must be set so that it does not compress the file.
Thanks for the info guys.
