My usual go-to guys are both apparently busy or napping.
I am attaching the pdf as it may suffice. It needs to be uncompressed to open in my CorewDRAW
TIA
-
Email?
-
Try this
-
Emailed you an EPS.
Rainy days like this who doesn't want to sleep in?
-
Looks like I got beat to the punch, but let me know if this works anyway...
-
Thanks Dennis. The ai file you posted opens fine, but, as you may have noticed, they didn't create the fade in white, so if I go ahead with this, it will take some fiddling.
Oh, and did I mention? this s a one day rush job!
And Sean, thank you as well Your eps opens fine as well, but of course, has the same problem with the fade and even more complicated by the dreaded adobe slivers.
I have a feeling that they are bailing anyway, but I wanted to have all of my ducks in a row.
-
Scott, thanks to you too, I didn't even open yours yet, but all of you, how do I get the fade included the one white screen?
Gotta leave for a few, but will anxiously be awaiting the answer.
-
It's a simple shape, two shapes actually for the V, probably just re-create them in Draw.
-
Try this one
-
Displays (and seps) fine here of course.
I'm guessing it's a transparency gradient issue. I know Corel
and Illy treat those differently.
-
Try this .pdf...
-
That's a good one as well Doug. I have what I need now folks!
What I realized as soon as I went out the door for my mandatory dog walk (in the rain today) was since, in the pdf or ai files, the "faded" objects were easily selected, and refilled as I needed via the fountain fill in CorelDRAW.
Once again, thanks all.
For that matter, I probably could have gotten the logo part on an appropriate site.
I only hope that this place is as great a resource for all of you as it is for me. ;D
-
If you ever need help and your normal peeps aren't around, shoot me a email. I was able to open the PDF in DRAW and could have saved it down for you
-
So, I assume that's a feature in v5 vs v4.
I got the dreaded Compressed notice.

X5 handles compressed files better than X4 yet is limited to CS versions prior to X5 beings released. Any CS versions after the release of X5 will NOT open a compressed file due to code being changed on Illy's end. Possible Service Packs have been updated to work with more current CS versions yet I know some still don't open. Adobe keeps changing parts of the code with every version and it seems Corel releases their latest version before Adobe does thus some things just not transferring between the two properly.

Adobe just needs to buy Corel and end this fiasco once and for all!
Just kidding, of course. :o

That strategy worked wonders with Freehand eh buddy?

Well, that worked with Freehand... or did it?

You should be put in front of a firing squad Scott ::) I was wondering how long it would take for one of those comments. lol Well I guess if that did happen I would have to find a new line of work.

Better chance of that happening than Corel making Draw Mac Compatible again?
Lemme tellya... if Corel made a Mac version, I'D BUY IT.
-
That will never happen again. No more Corel for MAC. Illy has that market (mac) and the sales do not justify the cost to make it compatible.

It never ran well anyway. CDR 11 was OK, but still pretty unstable in that platform.
Oh well, I've said it before, every upgrade and feature-add that Adobe gives Illustrator either comes from Corel or the empty husk that was Freehand.
On another note, I bought the latest Corel Painter (12) but haven't had time to load it or try it yet. I love me some Painter.

With Illustrator for PC outselling Illustrator for Mac by a wide margin it is hard to predict the future of Illustrator for Mac......There was a suggestion on the Adobe forum a couple years back that Apple might have to partner with Adobe to keep it going....As a high % of Mac users, use Illustrator.....

I think...... Adobe stuff is cross platform. The only difference would be a serial/activation number.
At my regular job, we buy few licenses and we get only one DVD with the software and different numbers for all of us to register with.
-
I think there's 2 versions of some stuff in there.
Windows and Mac's OS work a bit differently doing certain things.
Z, bite your tongue about Adobe going near Corel, they steal all their good ideas, that should be enough.
:P
