Problems with .ai files

[netsi]

Hi,

Nice trick to import .AI files by importing them as PDF files
But on the other hand sad that you need to know tricks to get Xtreme to do the job for you

What I did was:

1. Open a empty document
2. Choose "Import" (Ctrl+Shift+I)
3. Locate and select the .AI file (with file type set to ALL)
4. Change file type to "PDF (*.pdf)"
5. Press Open

Some fonts I have not, so they are substituded of cause.

Interesting files btw

Opened in both XPro and Illy. The file was generated with a mixture of RGB and CMYK colour mode and that is why the 2nd page bitmap does not appear well to put it mildly at the bitmap header at the top and the first page you will have to download CMYK template from the Xone to see the correct colours. If you want I will upload both pages but if you are using the most up to date version of XPro you should be able to do it yourself, ask away here if you want that done. Had to convert all text to shapes in both page 1 & 3 so all text is non editable.
