Alright, I brought back the other post Jimmy made about Corel along time ago to avoid having to make a new post...but nobody seemed to respond. My client that I did tee shirt designs for needs the illustrator (.AI) files in Corel format. Their printer uses Corel? I don't know why, but is their a certain format I can export the .AI file into something that can be opened in Corel. I've asked him to ask them, but he hasn't said anything other that they can't open it. Any help is greatly appreciated... 2008-02-07T03:17:58-05:00 10 2008-02-06T19:01:05-05:00 true 0 1171 false false 506 283 1 2009-11-21T17:35:25-05:00 301 tell them to tell you exactly what format they want ... not just "corel" ... also ask them if they've tried using "import" in corel. 1171 Post 2008-02-06T19:24:29-05:00 27960 1087 2008-02-06T19:24:29-05:00 yeah....that's what I figured but I have to deal with a middle man who doesn't know anything....i'm trying to get the printers number/email address 1171 Post 2008-02-06T19:25:15-05:00 27961 283 2008-02-06T19:25:15-05:00 Dude I posted this in the other one: If it has multiple layers, save it as a AI file without compression and tell them to import it instead of opening it. EPS's work also but will flatten all of your layers. PDFs work usually also. 1171 Post 2008-02-06T19:37:05-05:00 27965 1135 2008-02-06T19:37:05-05:00 what if it doesn't have multiple layers? export it as an eps? 1171 Post 2008-02-06T19:39:02-05:00 27970 283 2008-02-06T19:39:02-05:00 ya and expand all of your text and strokes 1171 Post 2008-02-06T19:44:33-05:00 27976 1135 2008-02-06T19:44:33-05:00 i think you might be able to export to it, im not too sure though 1171 Post 2008-02-06T20:20:10-05:00 27987 664 2008-02-06T20:20:10-05:00 Yea, an EPS will work. Just make sure if you're using any fonts to have them converted into outlines. 1171 Post 2008-02-06T20:44:52-05:00 27998 2175 2008-02-06T20:44:52-05:00 "ya and expand all of your text and strokes" jinx 1171 Post 2008-02-06T20:50:21-05:00 28000 1135 2008-02-06T20:50:21-05:00 alright I always have my text converted to outlines so i save it as an EPS and sent it.

It's the best bet for keeping layers. 1171 Post 2008-02-07T03:17:58-05:00 28198 506 2008-02-07T03:17:58-05:00
