Cant save a page in illustrator 10

Help
I have an illustration that I have drawn in Illustrator 10 and have coloured in, but I can save the Black and white version and save a copy.
But I want to save a copy of the coloured version but the button is greyed out. Why??
Is it something to do with the colour, files etc ?
Need help in knowing what to go through to correct this problem.
I would really appreciate help as I am fairly new to this application.
Thanks Jean

Sounds weird.  Try saving the artwork using different names.  For instance, for the Black + White version, name it "artworkB+W.ai" and for the color version, save it as "artworkC.ai" ( you'd obviously use your own name instead of 'artwork' ).  But, you should be able to save a copy, too.

  • Cant save bookmarked page

    I posted this already and cant find it anywhere.I updated to 3.06.17 and now when ever I try to bookmark a page,nothing happens.I tried a suggested fix by going to START button to open Firefox and start in safe mode,but when I open START ..( Windows XP..) there isnt a Firefox folder nowhere to be found.When I find the folder through "MY COMPUTER" and open it,theres only an "EXTENSION" file and a "RES folder" which when opened,theres nothing in them.

    There 5 ways to save a new Bookmark in Firefox. None of them work to actually save the new bookmark? <br />
    1. {Ctrl + D} <br />
    2. Right-click and select Bookmark this Page. <br />
    3. Bookmarks > Bookmark this Page <br />
    4. Double-click the Star that is on the right side of the Location bar. <br />
    4a. (A single-click on the Star will save the new Bookmark to the Unsorted Bookmarks folder.) <br />
    5. Letf-click and drag the website image ''(Favicon)'' in the URL bar (or on the active tab) into the Sidebar view of Bookmarks {Ctrl + B} <br />
    or to the Bookmarks menu bar item ''(the drop-down will open)'' and then onto the drop-down listing of your bookmarks and folder of bookmarks ''(folders will open)''<br />
    or onto the Bookmarks Toolbar - the new bookmark will be saved when you release the left mouse button

  • Cant Save As in CS6 Illustrator or Open Saved files - why?

    Have Uninstalled correctly and reinstalled twice now - help?

    Hello worksmc,
    I looked at the above snapshot and it helps a bit but would like to know if above snapshot is at the state when the AI stops opening the Ai files? If not, then please attach the one for that state as that would really debugging the issue.
    Btw, what type of files do you open for the first half 'n hour? What kind of objects are in those files? Do you keep the multiple documents open, if yes, then how many are these?
    Appreciate your understanding!
    Thanks,
    Dhirendra

  • Cant save as AI but can as PDF

    Using PC Windows XP Service Pack 3; CS5 Illustrator 15.1.0, 2gb Ram, 50gb Free HD space.
    Opening an AI file sent from Japan, not sure of its PC or MAC (is there a way to find out).
    All fonts are as outlines, images embedded.
    After making a few simple changes (to the artboard, and turning off a layer with crops on) we find we then cant save the AI file, error along the lines of 'saving encountered a problem' we can replicate and post that error if needs be.
    We are also trying to place a .PSD file whilst the original is in AI format, but we get memory errors, our Memory and available HD space all check out OK in Windows Task Manager as OK.
    The workaround has been to save as a PDF, checking the 'Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities' in the Options dialogue - the file then saves and allows us to then work away as normal, saving at the end.
    I also want to know if an 'Illustrator editable' PDF, with JPEG compression turned on for Images, do the images degrade (ie are read in, sampled and JPEG compressed) each time a PDF is opened and resaved.

    1)Run the action called "Delete Unused Items"
    2) Selct all, copy and paste into a new document
    3) save as with PDF compatible off
    Whether the image degrades depends on the settings of the PDF. Obviously if you go form high to low quality, they will degrade. Even if you save with the same compression level the image degrades.That amount is very small at max quality and you won't even notice the difference. Do for example 50 saves at low quality and you will notice a difference in images between original and final. The amount depends on resolution and type of image also play into the amount of loss (Hairlines - vs- fields of color, edges). A soft cloudy sky for exampel does not degrades as much as a shot of the golden gate bridge.

  • Problem while opening page page in Illustrator

    I opened a pdf page in Illustrator to extract the image. Missing font dialog box was not shown while opening the pdf page but junk characters (box-like) appeared in the file.
    The font used for these characters is Times New roman composite True type. This font could not be replaced with Times new roman true type font.
    Let me know how to avoid the junk characters while opening the pdf page in Illustrator                         

    Junk characters usually means a foreign language unicode problem. Does the file look good in acrobat?
    Best advice I can offer is what I used in the past, to save as an image from acrobat. I tried look ing in export to .eps if you coudl convert to outlines, btu could not find anything (screenshto below).

  • Cant save down from CS4 to CS3

    I'm having issues with my Illustrator CS4. It's recently stopped saving files down to CS3. Says "Can't Save File" when I try to save it down to CS3.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    I will find those things out as I am not the user. Only IT Support. Was just wondering if anyone
    else has had this issue and could share there solution.
    Another user can save down the same file to the same location without any issues. Don't know if this helps at all.
    Quad Core machine running XP Pro. PDF compatibility enabled. Have not tried reinstallation. Cant save to network or computer.

  • CS6 cant save the printer driver settings

    The problem is similar to this http://forums.adobe.com/message/4431235#4431235
    Illustrator simply does not save any of the settings in the driver tabs (such as custom print sizes, paper tipe, source tray etc) unless I hit the Print button (e.g. I cant save those settings temporarily by pressing the Done button nor I can save a print presset for a later use), and that is a very very very annoying thing an it brings back some memories of the time I upgraded to CS and CS2 and the case then was even worse because it didnt save the printer driver settings even by printing and allways reverted to the default settings, and now I remember why I hate Adobe so much, because they never had a fix for that until CS3 came out.
    That issue has been tested with XP 7 Vista both 32 and 64 (a lot of printer drivers) and it is not a single configuration problem, so please before asking some questions about the kind of the system and software etc do the following with your CS6 (or CS,CS2) and please tell me what happens. Choose File->Print and in the dialog choose whatever printer you have, press 'Setup...' button in the lower left corner, ignore the stupid prompt that some unknown Adobe genius tech invented, press Preferences button in the new Print window that pops up and in the printer driver UI window choose whatever setting you like that differs from the default setting, and then press Ok then Print and in the main Illustrator print dialog pres Done (but not Print if you are in CS6) button to close the dialog. Then open the Print dialog window again, navigate to the printer driver you just adjusted and please tell me what settings you have - those that you adjusted or the default settings. Thank you in advance!

    Thank you for the responceq Johny_07, unfortunately it solves the problem only if I have to specify the size of the media, but I need to specify the source tray, paper type and so on, parameters that are not present in the dialog box, and those are not remembered by Illustrator also. Do you experience that problem, I have allways wondered why there is no info concerning that problem, is it happening only with my instalations or it is a general program bug.

  • Cant save images i see on the web

    So when I see images  on the web  i cant save them. It just saves them as a HTTP file.  I tried to do some research but it doesnt   give  too much info. I right click and it just  says "save page as". I then thought it might just  be a face book thing,ANy suggestions??

    Try
    a) CTRL + click on the image and see if it shows either Open Image in new Window or Save Image As options
    b) Click on the image then drag & drop it onto your Desktop
    If it's not an actual image file then neither of these methods will work ...

  • Creating blank pages in illustrator

    I am trying to make a series of blank pages in illustrator with automator with the 'watch me do' function. I would like to make different size pages where it will start with 1'x1' and increase by half a foot at a time until it has 1'x1' to 5'x24'. I have every size I need in a spread sheet as well as the name I want each page to have.
    My problem is I don't know how to make the 'watch me do' function copy the info from the next row. So for the first set it would take copy a1 of my spreadsheet and paste it as height, then copy a2 and paste it as width, then copy a3 and paste it as file name. Then in the next loop copy b1, b2, and b3.
    How do I let it know to keep taking subsequent row?

    No, I didn't run the actions as a batch, as there are several SVG files I need to do other things to... in addition to sending them back to the same folder as an eps. So really I wanted to make edits... then click on the action to save it. It just saves me a few steps.

  • I use iMac desktop. I can't save web pages as PDF file by using Firefox, but by Safari is fine.

    I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.4. Today, I tried to save my email content as a PDF file. However, I only got a PDF file that have partial content of email. Then I adjust the printer setting and did it again, then I only got a blank PDF file. There was nothing inside. Then I tried to save email as a PDF file by using Safari browser. And I got a complete and sucessful PDF file. I usually save web pages or web mail, online receipt as PDF file by use Firefox. But since I have updated to the new version, there were many problems with my Firefox. I tried to restore all my application and made Firefox in the old 3.6.3 version which I used to have no problem. But now still not working.

    I solved it for myself: it was my HP smart-web printer crap that was a plug in and add on for firefox that somehow automatically got installed when I upgraded to 5. I disabled both in the add-ons manager, and voila, printing is working.
    It seems there are many things, like this and the Google toolbar, that were screwed by the oddly fast update to 5. Looks like Mozilla didn't give anybody any notice! Must've been some really bad security hole.
