Illustrator :: Illegal Or Misplaced Operator

Feb 26, 2014

So I've created a document with 2 artboards each in size 297mm x 210mm. I've added texts and pure illustrator created vectors. I deleted the swatches pallette and added 13 Pantone C colors. Saved (after a days work) and accendentaly closed the file. When I try to reopen it it gives me this:
 
Can’t open the illustrator file. The illustration contains an illegal or misplaced operator.
Offending operator: inf
Context: % 2 () Ga 0 14 0 1 0.2 0 0 () 0 0 GA
% 4 () Ga 0 14 0 1 0.2 0 0 () 0 0 GA
% 2 Gt
% 1 0 3 -2 -1 Gf
% 0 O
% inf
 
I chose to open the file anyway and all the elements are gone. Pretty frustrating when you're working against a deadline. After panicing I opened the file in Acrobat, saved it as EPS and remade the file. This for some reason saving a EPS from Acrobat split the text fields in non understandable way?
 
Now, is there a way to get my file to work? Why does this happen and what can I do to prevent this from happening?
 
I'm on a MacBook Pro 2013, 2,6 GHz Intel Core i5, 8GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Illustrator :: The Illustration Contains An Illegal Operand Error

Nov 7, 2012

I have however come across a real doosey - with a meeting to show the work inside this corrupted file.. tomorrow morning! love it. I'm a junior and I'm afraid of the extent my balls are on the block with this hiccup.
 
Placing the file in a separate AI file wasn't a solution because I am such a messy worker (outside artboards) and could only obtain a small snippet of the overall file.
 
I also tried turning on file recovery in Preferences>Illustrator CS5.1 Settings and the file that was recovered was blank.
 
It may also be of use that I was working on this file on another computer before coming home, and spilling beer in shock, denial, and disgust that I had lost many many hours of work.

Paint Shop Pro :: Illegal Or Damaged Copy - Caching SSD?

Dec 26, 2012

installing a 64GB SSD as a caching disk to my 750GB using Intel Smart Response.

So, I installed my SSD, configured windows to recognize RAID and configured Intel's Rapid Storage to use my new SSD as a caching drive. After that, I had to reactivate windows, which was expected, and I had to reinstall Paint Shop Pro X4, which was not.

Right after reinstalling, the software worked ok, installed SP2 and SP3, all fine. After a reboot... nothing, the error indicating that my copy was damaged or illegally modified showed up again. So... reinstall... SP2... SP3... ok! Reboot...

I noticed that the protexis licensing was running, and tried to restart it, and Paint Shop worked! Reboot.. run PSP... error... restart service... ok!!

*** SOLUTION ***

Changing the starting method of the protexis service from "Automatic - delayed" to "Automatic" made the trick for me!

Illustrator :: CS6 Only Using 13% Of CPU

May 3, 2013

Currently using Throttlestop to overclock i7-2600 to its turbo state and setting the priority of Illustrator to realtime and the affinity to the first 4 cores. Also, the system has 16gb of RAM installed and is set up as Raid 0 on 2 250gb 7200 rpm hdd's. Even during the most stressful tasks the cpu usage never goes past 13-14%, which is half of one core. The system is completely idle except for 1% in use by various system tasks. Is there a reason as to why Illustrator is throttling itself?

Illustrator :: PSD Or PNG To AI

Mar 18, 2013

I currently need to convert some of my tshirt designs to ai or esp format so they can be printed. I have discovered the trace tool as to fix the problem you get with the lines when you import a psd file to illustrator. What I am still struggling with is keeping transparency of the background.

I did manage to create a ai file from png with a transparent background, but now I cannot seem to replicate it. Also I find it difficult to see IF the BG is transparent since its always white (instead of the grey blocks). atm I check by adding a layer in illustrator and paint something to look if it shows under the original layer.. seems a bit silly.

I've read that importing the png files should solve the problem, but I can only manage to keep transparency when saving as a png, which is not what I need. btw (may be the reason of my failure) I import the psd file and select flatten, since the psd files often contain many layers and I couldnt get the trace tool to work.

So I have a few questions which you might be able to answer; I sort of know the difference between ai and eps, but I dont see any reason to save as eps, is this correct thinking (taking into account I can deliver them in both formats)?What would be the easiest way to convert psd or png files all with transparent BGs to ai? Is using the trace tool efficient and a good choice to fix the problems with the picture caused by importing psd to ai? should I 'always' use the "place" function to import?

What is meant with "text to curves" and "line thickness to paths"?

Photoshop :: Illustrator

Jul 21, 2006

Does anyone have Adobe Illustrator? If yes, what do you think about it... I am thinking of getting it to play around with the graphics etc.

if I bought the download of Photoshop Elements CS2 from the adobe online store, I suppose I still have to buy a full version of Illustrator right, and not just the upgrade since they are different programs?

Illustrator :: CC Will Not Cut Rectangles

May 9, 2013

Using the Roland GX-24 plotter to cut vinyl and the Illustrator print to plotter plug-in, the program refused to cut rectangles. (with the exception of lower case i's) This includes Capital I's, lower case l's, hyphens and rectangles using the rectangle tool.
 
All other letters have no issue cutting. So long as they're not a single rectangle. This anomaly was experienced using several files, tested on old and new. So its not an issue with the file.

Illustrator :: How To Set DPI For A Document

Jul 8, 2011

I'm designing a user interface for iPad (Resolution: 1024x768, DPI:132). Setting the resolution is a piece of cake but when I change the ruler unit to Centimeters, it shows the screen about 36x27cm which is not right (iPad screen is 24.3x19cm).
 
Illustrator calculates these lengths based on the DPI. But when creating a new document the only available DPI's are: 72, 150, 300 (File > New > Raster Effect). I know that Illustrator is a vector design program but there must be a way to set the DPI to an arbitrary value.
 
How can I have a 1024x768px artboard in Illustrator that is 24.3x19cm? (DPI=132)

Illustrator :: Converting From AI To EPS / PDF?

Jul 25, 2013

I recently designed a logo for a client that included both a gradient and transparency. I flattened the transparency, expanded the strokes and embedded the text before saving a copy of it in .eps and another in .pdf (PDF/x-1a:2003)
 
When I opened both files in Preview, I found these two problems:

I didn't have this problem when I saved the file in other formats (.jpg, .png) Also, while I'm here, is PDF/x-1a:2003 preset optimized specifically for printing?

Illustrator :: SVG Export And CSS?

Jun 29, 2013

I want to make a graphic to be placed on a web page that can be automatically styled in different ways using CSS. The problem is that when I export an SVG from illustrator, the SVG code is stripped of IDs/classes and so the CSS script won't function.
 
Some background: I work in a group of artists who make graphics in adobe illustrator and we need the ability to take these graphics and restyle them for different contexts. The restyling needs to be done fast.
 
So far I have tried naming elements on each layer, and I am choosing the Style elements selection in the CSS properties drop down menu
 
There is a lot if support for using the new versions of illustrator to provide the CSS code to copy and paste into a CSS document but I have not had luck finding support for getting a CSS-ready file out of illustrator
 
Is there a workaround or plugin that will allow illustrator to export a 'semantic' SVG graphic that can be styled using CSS?
