I could use a file converted.

They can send men to the moon, but they can't get a windows machine and a mac machine to communicate.

Go figure.

Anyway, I had an AD agency send me a file to print on my edge that was saved as an illustrator 8.0 eps file. I've tried all my tricks and I hate to admit it but I can't get this one to fly.

If someone could convert this to a PC eps or an AI file so I can import it into Gerber Omega that would be great.

I would go back to the ad agency, but the package arrived today, they are on vacation for 2 weeks and we need to print this job this week and deliver it to the customer.

Please contact me or e-mail me

Bob

I'll give it a go if you still need help.

Be careful with Flexi to AI. It won't matter with an Edge print but unless they've fixed it, Flexi will export a double copy of the art. A color filled version and an nonstroked, unfilled version directly underneath. Every time I export a Flexi file, I have to select and lock the top layer of all the art, then drag select the second copy and delete it.

Ditto on the Flexi export!

From what I've heard you have to go to Corel and export as a .cdr to be able to import into Omega.
