I downloaded the .eps (only) file and unzipped it. How do you get the pics to import into Xara Xtreme or XXP?? I tried all of the .eps file types in the drop-down box but I don't have anything by Adobe on my system.
Thanks,
Bob

I downloaded the symbols and ended up with a lot of .ai files. I was NOT able to open or import them in XaraXPro.

I have illusrator 10 and i can't get it to work
Tallis - did you actually install these?

Uh oh.

I did download these, but a while ago, they may have updated the format versions?

I've encountered the "rats!" feeling as well, trying to open ai or eps saved in a later-version format.

I'm not sure, sorry.

I also posted about this problem on the IAN forum. They suggested to try the SVG version. I have no idea what file format SVG is. The reply said that Xara (according to what he read) should open both the svg and eps files. He also has a file of older graphics that may work but there is a problem with 'shading' of the colors.
