I created a t-shirt design in Omega and then saved in AI. When I sent it to my screenprinter the vectors are not there. What am I doing wrong? Could someone explain to me what I need to do to get the vectors to convert? Thank you.

Cynthia,

On our copy of Omega there are two AI filters in the export list - one toward the top (the GSP AI filter, I think) and there's a second AI filter right down the bottom of the list. We usually have better luck with the second one...

I use to have the same thing but the second is no longer there. I will look again but for some reason it is not there. I use to do all my designs on my laptop but I had a bad virus and I have not been using it to do my designs. Maybe I need to check on the version that I have on my desktop. Thank you for your idea.

If you have Illustrator, try copying in Composer and pasting in Illustrator. You will have to delete the clipping mask in Illy. Works for me.

If you have the adobe Illustrator program, open
your file into that program. Once it appears on screen then rename it (easier to keep track of )
and then save as :illustrator.eps. when the pop up
appears there are choices of different levels of
which version to choose for saving. I prefer to
save as ver.3.0

You should be able to have everything saved for
most any program as a vector file.

Thanks Jack. I put it into my large format printing program and then into illustrator. Thanks everyone.
