Gary, many people have been willing to help but none of the suggestions have solved my problem. Either Xara is writing corrupt .ai files or Adobe doesn't know how to read its own files.

We are creating a brochure using Publisher (what's so funny?) and I am trying to create a 2" logo that is 300 DPI. It can be in any format, as long as Publisher can import it.

If I export a .bmp from Xara I am limited to 96 DPI.

If I export a .jpg or .png from Xara I can get 300 DPI but the image is quadroupled in size.

I need a .ai file so I can control the size and DPI.

So I'm stuck and very frustrated.

I know of only one solution to my problem and that is to pay someone to redraw it in Illustrator and create a .ai file.

I was on the verge of buying Xara before I found this problem. I will be creating a lot of logos in the future and I need this capability. I may have to buy Illustrator or Corel Draw..
