Anyone know how to cut and paste an illustrator file into psd and make it transparent?
Help help help.. im trying to move a 50% transparent black graphic from illustrator into psd. Everytime I do it pastes it at 100 percent transparency and its grey. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you! -

Jen or Jenn,
It seems to work for me Edit-Copy, then in ps edit- paste- then as smart object… Of course that’s only if your using CS2… but it should work the same in any ver of ps…

Im working in CS and it just pastes grey when I cut and paste. Very frustrating. Thank you for your post!

Well I believe that it is pasted gray but its at 50% transparency…Yes PS says 100%. Maybe it would be better for you to paste it as a path, then you can just change the ps opacity.

Good suggestion, alas, I have many layers to move into psd and moving them as a group is the only way to go right now. Wish I had CS2!

Would it be hard to make it black, cut/paste, then adjust the opacity in illustrator?

I believe if you start in Photoshop and go File> open> navigate to your illustrator file and open it through photoshop it should preserve the transparency.

Try going to the Illustrator preference menu and into File handling and Clipboard, then in the Clipboard on quit uncheck AICB(no transparency support) and check PDF. This worked for me when I tried it
