Now, I get this
Error: (<unknown> : 18850791) Procedure execution of file-gbr-save failed: Could not open 'C:Documents and SettingsNorseman.gimp-2.8/brushes/mybrush14.gbr' for writing: No such file or directory
Am I missing something? Do I need to reinstall Gimp?I havent loaded any new patterns or brushes, so I dont know why its not working?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've a basic RGB illustrator file - no embedded or linked images, just flat colors and gradients.I'm working in sRGB space and this is reported correctly in the info field at the lower left of the editing window.Some issues:
1. When I look at this file in Bridge it's listed as 'untagged'. However if I re-open it in illustrator it's reported to be sRGB as expected.
2. Despite requesting 'Include All Profiles' on the output page of the PDF save dialog I cannot get a PDF exported that includes the sRGB profile.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I use a transparent gradient on top of a darker colored background, I can see white as part of the transition, even though I have it set to fade to no fill.
And, no I don't want to use the multiply filter to solve this issue. Needs to be set to "normal" because the object will be used for web. This feature works correctly in Photoshop.
I'm creating a dialog window for an Illustrator script, and would like to include a logo image.
The image file is 'mm_logo.png', and it lies in the same directory as the script itself. Here's the relevant fragment:
var dlg = new Window('dialog', '',[200,200,600,400]);// logodlg.logo = dlg.add("image", {x:25,y:0,width:139,height:67},undefined,'mm_logo.png');
Sadly the image fails to appear when I run the script (although the dialog itself and items such as panel lines and buttons do appear).
The documentation suggests I may need to supply the 'current' property of the 'Folder' class.
In Illustrator 6, you have to check "include linked files" every time you save a document. If you don't, the next time you open it, you are looking for the missing link. Is there a way that I can set a default so that it automatically checks it each time?

It works great when the path does not conatin any spaces but else it fails and say that it cant find the file. Even networkshares work without spaces.
You may think that i have not tried to enclose it in " " signs but i actually have tried that with no success

Let's say I have some text (black) with a black stroke on it. (It creates the look I want, without using BOLD.)
How can I convert this text to include the stroke as one entire object? No stroke, just one entire vector shape?
(I notice if you import text this way into Flash, convert to a symbol and fade up from zero opacity, you see the fill as a different value than the stroke value - very annoying.)
Is there a Pathfinder command that I can use to fix this text?
I have always wanted to make a ball(sphere), a 3 demensional looking sphere, with a clemson tiger paw pasted to it with the curved look. Like it is fitting right to it. And have the ball itself have a water shimmer look to it... or at least the area of the ball not covered by the tiger paw. Then have the ball bouce up and down on a mirrorlike or waterlike surface.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm working on designs in Illustrator and preparing an InDesign document with all of the graphics in one file for the client to review. The artboards are set to the size of a pier sign that will be all wood, but there are left graphics on the wood that will be laser cut and these extend beyond the edge of the wood. When I place the separate artboards in InDesign, they are cropped to the edge and I'd like to show how the left graphics extend beyond it. I've tried different import options but none of them show beyond the trim. (Also, if it makes a difference, the artboard sizes are fairly large—about 60" wide)

i have a layout that i made into a PDF to show my client. the layout has a pattern and when you view the PDF, the pattern moves around as you Zoom in and out of the pdf. i have never experienced this before.
i tried saving with different settings to different versions but they all do it.
i have layers off, and illustrator editibility off.
edit: the pattern only moves when viewed in Preview. still i don't understand shouldn't be doing it.
I was in my Adobe Illustrator class earlier in college and our professor taught us how to change the colors for our patterns under any swatch. For example, the orange polka dot swatch I switched it to hot pink...we did that using the direct selection tool and changing the fill. I did the same thing on a Mac at our school (we have a Mac lab for all the Graphic Communication classes) and it worked fine but when I tried doing the same thing at home with my Windows PC it didn't work. How can I switch and play around with the colors for pattern swatches on a Windows?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to create a seemless pattern in illustrator cs5 with a logo a customer provided. I have looked through several tutorials and read most everything I can about the process but seem to be running into a strange problem. I make the pattern like all the lessons say with a rectangle with no fill or stroke set behind all the elements I want in my pattern. When I deifne the pattern it doesn't just include the objects inside the square but also the parts of the elements that leave the square. If I am understanding everything correctly thats not how its supposed to work. I am using illustrator cs5 on mac os x. Here is a screen shot. Back ground square really has no stroke or fill. I am only coloring it in so you can see the example.

View 8 Replies View RelatedOk, I'm in Illustrator CC and using the Object>Pattern creator to make new patterns. but I seem to be unable to figure out how to save those patterns to be able to open them in other documents.I have gone to 'Save Swatch Library as ASE' but then it says swatches with gradients and patterns will not be saved.
I have tried to 'Save Swatch Library as AI' but it still doesn't seem to save it anywhere.How do I save a pattern I create to be able to open that pattern in a different document later?
