  • Cant import illustrator into after effects? – please help me!!!

    Posted by Jamie on May 23, 2005 at 9:49 am

    Hello there

    i am having a massive problem importing illustrator files into after effects. I am using Illu 10 and AE6.5 on a dual power mac G5 2.3.

    When ever i try and import it, it just keeps on saying After effects Error : invalid. Why is this. I always use illu to create text and for some reason it just wont do it now.

    Any help would be very greatfully received.

    Thanks

    Jamie

    In Illustrator’s preferences, under the File Handling & Clipboard category, you must ensure that AICB is selected. Hope that helps!

    You might also try saving your Illustrator files in an earlier file format, say AI 6 or 7. Sometimes AE doesn’t like the most up-to-date Illustrator files.
