importing AI CS2 into AE
I’m trying to import illustrator CS2 outlined text files into after effects, but the text gets cropped based on the document size instead of my bounding box. I’ve tried the following solutions without success:
– Saved in legacy format, but it still gets cropped
– Turned off “use compression” in CS2, but it gets cropped
– increased the document size (700×5300 pt – due to the project) but I get an invalid error that doesn’t go away even after I click OK
– saved as eps format, which works fine except if I need to have multiple layers
Any advice is appreciated…thanks in advance

Sometimes I will draw a box around the text in Illustrator, and then go to Object > Crop Area > Make. And then resave it. that might help.

thanks for the help, but that didn’t work either. the image still gets cropped based on the document size
