Photoshop
I'm still not sure exactly what your trying to do. Are you
trying to use the 'place' command to place an .AI file that was done
in Adobe Illustrator into another image? If not, than your using the
wrong command, because thats all it does. If your trying to combine
two or more bitmap files (tga's or whatever) into one image, then the
easiest thing to do is use a selection tool to select the area you
want, and copy it to the clipboard, then activate the image you want
to put it into and paste it in. However, there are several ways of
combining images, so I'd need to know exactly what your trying to
accomplish to really be of much help. Also, if your trying to combine
an EPS file with a normal bitmap, you'll probably need to convert the
EPS file first.
If this doesn't help, give me some details on what you want to do, and
I'll try to let you know the best way of going about it.
