letters filling in when converting to AI file.

We receive art files here to work on. They've gone to a couple of different sources before we get them, so we really don't know how the file was originally saved. It gets emailed to us so that we can get it ready to send to the plate makers.

After opening the file, I save it as a Corel Draw file, then work on it. The problem starts when converting the Corel file to an AI file. The AI file now shows sections of letters filled in, like the letter o. 

Does anyone have any ideas?

We're using Corel X5 and using Windows 7.

Thank you so much,

Jolynd

  • When converting files to AI format, one common issue encountered is letters filling in, which can disrupt the intended appearance of the text. This problem often arises due to font compatibility issues or encoding discrepancies between the original file and the AI format. When letters fill in, it can distort the readability and aesthetics of the document. Addressing this challenge may involve adjusting font settings, ensuring proper encoding, or employing alternative conversion methods. Additionally, verifying the integrity of the converted file by performing a copy AI can help mitigate potential errors and preserve the text's fidelity during the conversion process.
