Help sought importing .ai files (into XDP X10)

[gwpriester]

I have CS5.5 and I get an error message the .ai file was created with a newer version and when it opens I see nothing.

Which file, Gary?

If you are referring to the EPS file I uploaded, it is one of a couple things regardless of the application. It is either that it is an EPS 3.0 file (XDP only), or your AI installation may be hosed.

BTW, there is no CS5.5 when it comes to AI. the latest version before CS6 was 5.1. But it opens fine in CS5.1 here--just as I would expect it to.



That file is a very simple EPS file containing a barcode generated by an online generator of barcodes. The engine behind the generator is the main one used as it is OpenSource code. It generates fairly clean EPS files.

All to demonstrate that Xara really needs to update these filters.
