Illustrator :: Back Saving CC File To CS6 Without Losing Layers?

Aug 14, 2013

How can I back save illustrator files created in CC (CS7 version???) to CS6 without losing layers?  when I open the files in CS6 it says "some info will be lost'   Ha!  all layers and separation is lost, so cannot separate parts whole file seems grouped and cannot be separated? When I go back to my (other) computer where I was foolish enough to upgrade to CC, way to save back as I can with InDesign and saving as a idml file.

Illustrator :: Losing Layers And Groups When Opening CC In CS6

Aug 6, 2013

If CC is a TRIAL program, why would you allow it to blow away layers and groupings when the doc is reopened in CS6? No I have to resinstall CC, open the doc, save it back down to CS6, and PRAY that the layers and groupings are intact. What a waste of my time.

Revit :: Saving MEP File Back To Earlier Version?

Feb 13, 2012

I have Revit MEP 2012 and created a small guest house in this program. I wanted to add some features using Revit Architecture 2011that are not available in the MEP program. When I tried to bring the files up in the Revit architecture program I get an error message that the drawing was created in a later version of Revit. Is there any way to save the MEP file back to an earlier version of Revit like one could do with Autocad drawings?

Illustrator :: CS6 Rasterizes Drop Shadows When Saving Back To CS

Feb 19, 2013

I am working with Illustrator CS6 and when I save a file to an earlier version - CS3 or CS - that has a drop shadow effect, the effect gets rasterized. Drop shadows are not new to this latest version of Illustrator so shouldn't they still be editable when saving to a version above CS?

Photoshop :: Illustrator File Losing Quality When Opened

Oct 19, 2012

I have simple line drawings in illustrator (outlines of clothes) that I wish to open in photoshop to add colour and effects to. When i have tried to copy and paste (as normal paste, smart object, pixels, path and shape layer) the quality is lost.

I have also tried to open or place the file in photoshop as a .psd, .ai , .pfd and still the quality is lost.I have saved with different resolution settings too, but it always loses quality when it is opened in photoshop.
 
Is there any way to have a clear line drawing like it is in illustrator in photoshop?

Illustrator SDK :: Exporting Layers - Can't Undo Deletions After Getting Back From Other Plugin

Feb 27, 2013

I used to export layers by deleteing the ones I didn't want, then exporting as an illustrator file, then undoing all the layer deletions.
 
Recently I had to switch up so that I call another plugin which inserts information into the file I'm working on.  Then that plugin sends control back to the original to do all the ai file exporting I mentioned above.
 
Somehow after I get controll back I cannot undo the layer deletions.  Does it have something to do with the "nested plugins" notes in the contexts sections of the undo documentation.
 
I have to confess I don't fully understand these "contexts".  Also if there's another way to export a layer of a file other than deleting all the other ones.

I use CS3 to edit.  For some reason, whenever I resize the image, save it as a Jpeg and post it to the web, it loses image quality.  Severely.  I've never had this problem before....until this new computer.  I usually resize the image to 800, then simply click on Save as Jpeg.

Illustrator :: When Saving A File Using Save Option / File Is Not Staying At Size Of Artboard

Jun 18, 2013

am having an Issue with CS6 when saving files. When saving a file using the 'Save' option (not 'Save As') the file is not staying at the size of the artboard as it should, it is however being aurtomatically cropped down to the actual artwork size. This is causing issues with the Process we work with as we need the file to stay at the artboard size.If I click 'Save As' and change the Adobe PDF Preset to 'Press Quality' then this works, however this means that every file we save(which is quite alot in a day) means we have to go through the 'Save As' option and manually change each save.why this has suddenly started to happen with our Illustrators and do you know how to fix this so that it stays at the Artboard size when 'Save' is used?

Illustrator :: OS X 10.8 Saving Opened / Edited CS5.5 And CS6 File Rewrites File Permissions

Dec 5, 2012

Open an .AI file saved on a netapp or windows shared directory with full permissions (prior to saving I noted that all security groups are intact in file properties as we have 2 for read and write access)Make any changesTry to save and get the prompt:  Can’t save preview, but all other information was saved successfully. The file couldn’t be found. ID = -43  (file is now corrupted and looking in security group file properties the 2 security groups designated for read and write access for the directory is now gone and shows an unknown security group????)

Save as works without a problem. Try to press save again and get This file has been modified outside Illustrator. Do you want to continue?Continue and prompted This file cannot be foundObviously the file preview icon goes from a thumbnail of the file to a generic iconWhen I try to open the file I get: Can’t open the illustration. The file is locked or in use.It led me to believe the issue was either OS X or CS5.5. I was able to open the file fine on Windows Illustrator CS5.5 make a slight change and resaved (which fixed the file and opens again in OS X and read/write security groups show up again?)Optionally, I was also able to fix the file to where I could open it in OS X by simply giving myself Read/Write access to the file from Get Info 

Notes:No issues with the same file in 10.7.x.

I've tested on all available Mac Pro / MacBook Pro machines and issue doesn't seem to happen on MacBook Pro retina?Photoshop and InDesign not affected

Photoshop :: CS6 PSD Losing Layers

Jul 13, 2012

My Photoshop CS6 PSDs are getting flattened if opened by any previous versions of Photoshop, despite not being saved just opened.  When I open the original in CS6 again, all layers are merged.  Where there were 12 layers, there is now one.  This is causing loads of problems.

GIMP :: Revert Layers Back To Layers?

Jun 20, 2013

I merged my layers down to scale to proportion and I thought I was done with the project, so I saved it and exported. I then learned that I did something incorrectly, so I went back to the project only to remember I merged the layers and I don't know how to undo that. How do you revert the layers back to layers?

Photoshop :: How To Merge Layers Without Losing Layer-mask

May 18, 2012

I'm trying to save a file that looks great in Photoshop and preserve it as a PNG. I'll create the image, simply "merge layers" and lose the transparency of it. How do I get my PNG to look like it does in photoshop.
 
The red background show through in photoshop originally...but then after "merge layers" or saving the PNG every way possible (or so I think)... the degree of transparency isn't preserved.Below looks great. (red bleeds through nicely, good transparency)

Now doesn't look so good. (all i did was merge layers and red doesn't bleed through properly anymore, same result when saving as png)

Illustrator :: Layered Vector AI File With Raster (Photoshop) Layers Included As Vector Layers?

Apr 20, 2013

I've been using Illustrator since the late 80's but this request just now came up for the first time, twice in one day: the clients each want me to send them layered files (OK-no problem) wherein all the layers, even the raster layers, register as vector layers. Or at least all the layers, regardless of file-type (vector or raster) are contained within an unflattened Illustrator file. One of the clients specifically asked that the Type layer (No problem-all the type is on one layer) be  "vector mapped", whatever that means, while all the other layers can be Photoshop layers, if necessary.  So how do I hand them an open, unflattened Illustrator file containing both vector art and raster art? Can it be done in Acrobat, as a PDF? I'm working in AI and PS CS5, but I can and will upgrade if I have to.

Illustrator :: Saving A Shape To File?

Jul 10, 2012

I have simply created a special ellipse in illustrator that I want to save to file and import to an iPhone application. I was wondering about the following:
 
1) How do I make the file so that just the ellipse appears, ie cut everything else out of the file, all the white space, so that there just exists space for the ellipse shape and the ellipse shape only.
 
2) What file format would be the best to save it to?

Illustrator :: Saving Packaged CC File

Jan 10, 2014

I have created a project within Illustrator CC (However, I am not too familiar with this program). My client has a later version of Illustrator (CS4) and wishes to be able to open it in their office. When saving it as a general Illustrator file, he is able to open it when I save it as an IDML. However, when packaging the project in CC, I cannot chose this option (IDML CS5 or later) and they are left being unable to open the file.

Illustrator :: Color Saving File To PDF And JPEG

Apr 17, 2013

When I have a file in Illustrator that I want to save as or export as a PDF or JPEG whenever I save it the colours shift and the quality drops.Most noticiably black boxes goes to a muddy brown when saved to JPEGS, but I have also noticed tones in Photographs change quite a lot when saving as PDF.
 
I have tried to tweek every type of setting there is. higher resoulution, compression, sampling, down sampling, PDF preset, print quality etc.but nothing seems to sort it out. PDF's arent as much as a problem as the JPEG but the only way I have managed to get a PDF up to a reasonable standard is by wacking everything up so there is no compression or downsampling which makes ginat files I cant email....
 
Im sure the problem probably lies within the combination of each of these together but I cant seem to find out what that is. Also brown in the seat base has gone more orange and the whole picture has generaly lost quality.

Illustrator :: Two Machines Saving Same File As Different Sizes?

Jun 19, 2013

My coworker and I both have the same version of Illustratir (CS6) and both use Lion on iMacs, but today noticed something weird. He saved a file similar to a file I had done before as both an eps and a pdf and his file size was more than twice what my file sizes usually are. I thought it was odd, so I copied everything from his file into a new file (same dimensions) and saved out an eps and pdf (default settings), and like I thought, my files were less than half the size of his.
 
Why would two machines be saving identical files at different sizes? Is there a setting somewhere I'm missing? Everything in the file is vector, if it matters. There's not even any editable text.

Illustrator :: Keep Text Editable When Saving EPS 10 File From CS5?

Feb 12, 2013

I am having an impossible time finding an answer to this question. How do you keep text editable when saving an EPS in Illustrator CS5 down to Illustrator 10? Every time I open it, the text is either converted to points or it is broken up into single letters which is hardly useful for the end-user to take and edit.
