It is my understanding from reading Corel 13 help files that I can open any AI file.
I have an AI file that is 1853kb (is that big???) ....but it wont open/import
I have tried opening up corel and doing an import.....
and also going to my folder/ the ai file/open
nothing...
corel doesnt do anything
Any suggestions?
Hi guys. I'm new here and not sure how any of this works. I have Corel, but not Illustrator and need to open an AI file. Tried photoshop and coverting to eps, but then it's not a vector image rather an image. What is an "eps, .ai interpolated filter"? I appreciate all the help you can give me :)

If you have the latest version of CorelDRAW X4, then you will be able to open Ai-illustrator files directly. No direct need to go via Photoshop and EPS.You should, be able to open all Ai illustrator files up to CS3. ( if you havent done any fancy pantsy stuff with your illustrator file).
And you can save to Ai files created in CorelDRAW.When sending files back and forth to Illustrator & CorelDRAW, try using file formats PDFand Ai.
EPS is a file that was not intended to be editable in the beginning.EPS can entail both Vectors and Bitmaps.EPS is also in my opinion a to widely used term by people not really knowing what it is. And is demanded by the same people, not accepting a PDF to be better suited for them. "just because" they only know about EPS as a file format.EPS can be saved from CorelDRAW as well as from Illustrator. Do bare in mind that EPS is "made" differently depending mostly because the differens on how CorelDRAW and Adobe Illustrator make transparancies. Which is making most of the hazzle.Just look for subjects about EPS in this forum, take this thread >

Just remember that if they are compressed upon save in Illustrator, Draw won't be able to read them. There may also be problems with files created in Illy CS4, due to the fact that CS4 came out after X4, and hence the filter is not created for the CS4 format. [/quote] You are correct ROnny. Sorry for missing that info. Call it the +30 celsius all week long here in our country Sweden. :-)
