Place ?

How do I fix my file guys? Someone must know, I can import it in photoshop.. but's that's no help really.
someone? please?
- Mojo0
yeah place doesnt let me edit the file, and only renders to the bounding box :/
- 4cY0
you have an older version of illy?
i do have like 3 versions installed.
you can email it me and i can save it in another format perhaps.
And i am on a mac so maybe that makes a difference.. :)
- Mojo0
I have only cs2,
the problem is that there is a bug in the file - from a crash or something. I'm considering whipping out a hex editor to try and correct it .. argh.. but surely there must be some piece of software to parse it .. argh i'd better find another version of illy..
I can't send the source to you because of copyright :(
thanks for the offer though
- 4cY0
ok then. goodluck.
- Mojo0
4cY: Do you actually get work done? You are on like every single thread.. lol
:)

maybe chek for a file repair app.
some of these errors are common amongst many files, just an error in the hex somewhere...
like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product…

not now. i'll be gone in a moment though. i work at nights, slack during the days.
i'm ok. :)

arrrrggghhhhh
this is madness..
I can place things in other apps, but it only places up the the media boundaries, all the resource I need is outside the boundaries...
and I can't find an old version of illy anywhere :/

You can't find an old version? Have you tried looking on the INTERNET?

- 4cY0
also, what file format is it?
have you tried freehand and the likes??
- Mojo0
*cough* mostly mac versions *cough*
I found a cs TRIAL, but i think v10 may work.. just a hunch...
hmm never thought of freehand..
- Mojo0
NOOOOOOOOO
In CS1 it imports but missing lots of data, but it gets everything in the boundaries fine.http://www.newstoday.com/..
the preview box of the file:
what opens up in illustrator:
haha, i'm sorry I know no-one really cares but argh.. this is driving me insane and I am hoping someone has a solution...
in the meantime I will search for illy 10.. and freehand..
- version30
Mojo, I have 10 installed on a pc i know you are fearful of the copyright but I could really care less, so if you have the stones, send it my way and I'll send whatever it makes back, if not I understand
- horton0
did someone already suggest opening in Acrobat and saving as a new PDF, then back into Illy?
- version30
well i believe you just did horton
