I bought some vector graphics that have been saved as Illustrator (ai and eps files) and my CorelDraw version 9 will not open them. CRAP !! I really don't want to purchase X7 for $400 and don't use CorelDraw enough to justify that investment. Is there some way I can get these Illustrator files open and back to CDR9 so I can edit them ?
I want to be able to select the parts and pieces in these vector files so I can change the fills, shapes, etc..
Any ideas ?
Thanks !

Thanks Paul. That's is a great idea and I did try and buy the Photo & Graphic Designer 9, which does open these ai & eps files so I can edit them...and I bought on EBay for $30 so saved a good bit too. Thanks for the solution.
Hi Paul
I have an old cutter that will only run on Win98 so I had the same issue as you, I found that saving as a .pls allows you to import the file into c9.
Hope it works
If I remember correctly, there are several .eps import filters in v9. Be sure to use the one that says something like "Postscript Interpreted"
Why don't you try by this tool?

Another option is to save the file as CMX, that allows to open the file on CorelDRAW 9.0, no matter on what version it was created
