  • problem exporting AI file to PS

    Posted by Capital on January 22, 2007 at 11:14 am

    Dear All,
    I have a CS version of both AI and PS. I am trying to export the AI file, that has a few symbols, font and vectorbased lines for it to be opened in photoshop. The problem I am having is when I go File>Export>PSD, I get the photoshop export options but DO NOT get the option of Export as: Write layers, Preserve Text Editability and Maximum editability. They are greyed out and I get only the Flat image option. SO when I open in PS I get one layer.Why is that? My AI file has 30 separate files… Please help.
    Best regards
    Capital

    Make a new file, draw a rectangle on this, and try to export to psd, (this simple test will help tell us if something is wrong with your install or your document), and let us know if the options for psd are still greyed out.

    Not sure what you meant by your AI file has 30 seperate files, can you elaborate? Did you mean that you have 30 layers????

    Do you have the full verison of photoshop or elements?
