The mask has to be on the top of all objects that you want to mask! (since you said you placed the other objects on top of the mask)

Are they layers within layers (sub-layers)? In that case, just move the sub-layer out of the parent layer – so that it becomes a “main” layer as well. Then save it.

CS4 will output the correct file. Specify the version of EPS you want when you save the file.

You need to set the artboard to the correct size (eg the size of your final image). Then set the background color of your artwork (or your artwork all together) bigger than the artboard. When you save, crop it to the artboard. There won’t be white edges this way.

>>the client of course. i believe it has to do with how flash will handle this asset later on
That’s very interesting, since AI can export to flash. I can’t say the same for PS. So I have no clue how the “client” is going to export vector work to flash from PS. But usually the client knows everything better than anyone else, so I’d say they can deal with it.

You said you will have to recolor the shapes in PS. So why not just make all paths in AI with no fill and a single default stroke, select all AI paths, then paste it back into PS as Paths. Then you can just separate them in PS.
