#Illustrator Files
All:
I've got a customer who is sending in some fairly complex Illustrator files
of late.
The file runs fine his laserwriter IInt (and mine as well). It bombs out on
the L300/RIP2 with an error involving the "fill" operator. If I save it as
an Illustrator 1.1 file, import it into Freehand the file runs fine.
This manuveur has worked fine so far, but I'm a bit leery about doing this,
since something subtle might get lost. Anyone have any ideas what the
problem might be? If there are too many points on a path (the usual
Illustrator bugaboo) why would Freehand be able to handle it? (I did the
import into Freehand primarily because I thought I was going to have to
split the path and feel a lot more comfortable working in Freehand than
Illustrator — I was surprised when, in fact, the file ran without me
having to touch it).
