Been using CDx8 for awhile and never have I seen this issue. I export a EPS file and when I import it nothing appears on the screen. Any help would be great! thanks in advance.
Lot's of factors to consider.
Layer issue?
Export "Selected"?
Yes export selected, Setting are the same as my 2nd and 3rd computers that work perfectly. Also tried exporting just a black box and it would do that. Thirdly tried converting bitmap and exporting. Its created a file and show kbs in properties but imports nothing. Thoughts?
You didn't mention anything about the layers. Just want to ensure all the shapes are on a "printable" layer.
yes its on a printable layer. thank you
Sorry, just trying to cover all.
Might try and copy all to a new doc, close out of the "old" one then save over it.
Also do any of the shapes have complex fills?
yup, tried that too. even started a new doc and draw a simple black square and same result as mentioned above.
Have you tried dumping temp files?
OK that worked. :) why would that do that?
No idea.
I created myself a shortcut to run a DumpTempFiles macro or batch file I found somewhere. I keep it on my desktop and whenever Corel starts acting flakey or locks up altogether I can run that and get good results at least 50% of the time. I also have a macro that dumps temp files, as well as, clears the clipboard every time I close a file. That kind of keeps things running smooth.
