Hello, folks.
I've skimmed the forum and FAQs, but haven't found anything conclusive and thought I'd try for an easy answer here before digging into an in-depth search.
I recently purchased Xara Xtreme as I decided that Illustrator (which I have used in the past) is overpowered for my needs. However, I'm starting to wonder if I've been oversold on Xara's compatibility.
I have had little or no success opening or importing vector files of various formats. I have tried opening a dozen or so .ai and .eps files, for example, and even a .pdf or two. I've never gotten any of these files to open properly in Xara Xtreme (including a .pdf example file posted on these forums).
Now, I downloaded the Xara Xtreme trial, then purchased the unlock key online--do I have to do something weird, like re-install Xara from the CD which arrived in the mail later on? Or am I just going to have to get someone else to convert any and all files I need to work on into a compatible format (one forum thread recommends AI version 7 or 8)?
Thanks for any clarification,
-Steve
