Achieving smooth paths from Illustrator
I’m taking the ‘export path to illustrator’ out from photoshop to then take into C4D to animate. There are a lot of wide arches in the logo that are becoming distorted once they are imported into C4D.
They look perfect in Photoshop! Where am I going wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
many thanks,

Works perfectly here, using PS CS5.

This is my problem!………the arch isn’t smooth, where as in Photoshop the path is smoother than a baby’s bottom…..
any ideas?!

I’d also love to know how to export the paths direct from Illustrator, for import into C4D, without needing to do it inside Photoshop.
I’d be very grateful for some help on this, this one is really frustrating……
many thanks,

straight from illustrator is easy you just have to save as Illustrator 8

hard to say without looking at the actual *.ai file, but it might help to change the interpolation type to natural or subdivided.

Thanks that really helped! 🙂

Adam, can u say more on that? I have a problem too with trying to get a smooth path. Here is my illustrator file:
And here is the logo in c4d after u do what u do (extrude, add caps):
The front I can live with except for where one of the flares is twisted and is messing up my design. But it would be nice to get this right in case I want to animate the back face – ha!
Thx for any tips…
JigsPs.The path that’s in illustrator came from a scan that was cleaned up using ai tools, so I hear.
