  Hi,

  I have a file sent to me by a customer in AI format i believe straight from Illustrator, i presumed this would be a vector image but even text appears as bitmap, in fact the whole image does??

  is it in the save options there end?
  seems to be a bitmap rather than a file with vector paths?

  Unfortunately, many of our customers have the same problem of understanding the AI format, if the created image is a bitmap, they seam to think just by saving it in the AI format will miraculously convert it into a usable vector graphic………….. Just does not work that way, would make life a lot easier if it did !

  The AI format is more than capable of saving both vector and bit mapped images within the same file.
