Can a PDF saved from cs6 be opened in cs5 with layers intact?

I have a client who insists on receiving final files as PDFs saved as Illustrator Default with Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities ticked. This wasn't an issue until I upgraded to cs6. In cs6 I'm saving the native file as cs5, and then saving as PDF with the following options:
The client is able to open the PDF in cs5 but the layers are all flattened into a single layer. Is there way to Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities for any version other than cs6?

The only way is to downsave the AI file to a CS5 and export from there. There are too many changes from CS5 to CS6 for this not to happen.

  • How to open .ai file with layers intact?

    Is there a way to open an .ai file inside of Photoshop CS4 with all its  layers sitll intact? If so, how?

    That command tries to write layers but most of the functions from Illustrator aren't available in Photoshop so it flattens those layers to preserve the image quality. I wouldn't bother with it, there's not much point in editing Illustrator layers in Photoshop anyway. If you have to bring .AI files into Photoshop then use File->Place to turn the .AI file into a Smart Object.

  • PDFs saved from Safari won't open in Adobe Reader

    PDFs saved from Safari won't open in Adobe Reader - damaged file
    iMac late 2009 8Gb 3.06 Intel Core 2 Duo - Safari 6

    I encountered the same problem and tried doing what Suzanne did by right clicking the file and saving it to the computer first and then opening it.
    And then after double clicking the saved file windows prompted whether I want to open it with the newly installed Adobe reader 9.0 or with Microsoft Word. I chose the Adobe Reader 9.0 and clicked on the check box asking whether we always want to open this type of file using this program.
    I managed to open the file and best of all is after that I was able to directly double click on the pdf email attachments to open it.
    Seems like that we need to let windows associate the file type with the program first.

  • Can't get pdf links from others to open in Preview

    Just got new MBP w/change from Snow Leopard to Lion. When I clicked pdf link from friend, it opened a black page on Safari--the default browser.
    This also happened sometimes before in SL, but I learned if I held down Control while clicking the link, it would trigger Preview to open the file. Not now.
    Any solutions?
    Thanks,
    K

    Thanks, Carolyn. I've checked several, and they all already have Preview chosen as the default. (Also evidenced by the 'Change All' button being grayed out & unclickable.)
    The friend who sent the link said I should download Adobe PDF Reader since my MAC is brand new....?
    In the past (pre-Lion on Snow Leopard), MOST pdf's would open In Preview without this problem.
    I *really* need this to open: It's the manual for my new Sony RX100!
    Thanks,
    K

    I am trying to output a PDF gallery from CS6 bridge in 10.8.5 on a Mac. No options are available from the pull-down Output arrow.

    Hello,
    Although not as simple as it should be you can use a program like "Grab" to take a screenshot of the frame in the preview window in iMovie.

  • Can I use InDesign cs6 to open and work with PM6.5 files?

    Can I use InDesign cs6 to open and work with PM6.5 files?

    Lrak wrote: "It sounds like I should to that before endeavoring to transfer the manuscript?" (re-link)
    It should be much easier to re-link in the Pagemaker file, as, with any luck, you can get the filenames from the Graphics Manager.  After conversion to InDesign, any out-of-date linked images get their names converted to something like "image 123.jpg", and are themselves converted to an embedded low res representation of the image.  Even vectored art.  Pretty hard to figure them out, unless you are VERY familiar with the file, which you may be.
    It may be that any cropping gets lost, too?  I do prepress work, we do some set up for our customers, but most comes in pretty much ready to go, so I don't often have to did too deep into fixing such issues. On the other hand, any problem that can happen has probably crossed my desk, or it seems that way some days!

    I am having an issue with my adobe acrobat 9 pro. Every time I try to open a pdf from someone it opens it up with my free adobe reader rather than the Acrobat 9 pro so then I don't have all of the functions of 9 pro. How do I get it to open with 9 pro instead of the free reader?

    It may depend on the plugin that is loaded into your browser. However, right click on a PDF and select the Open With option and go to the default button to select Acrobat as the default. That might do it.

  • Can books/pdfs saved in iBooks be transferred across devices (iPad2 and iPhone4) with iCloud?

    Can books/pdfs saved in iBooks be transferred across devices (iPad2 and iPhone4) with iCloud?  My documents in Pages is on both the ipad and iphone automatically as soon as i connect both to wifi.  The stuff in ibooks did not do this. Also- I am backing up my phone right now to icloud... it says must be plugged in, connected to wifi, and locked.   So after I do this, all of my icloud-able contents will be available on my ipad??

    You might look into using Dropbox for that.  I use it between Macs but haven't tried it with my Phone.

    You are never able to open projects from one version of After Effects in an earlier version. This has always been the case.
    You can use the command File > Save As > Save A Copy As CS6 to save a version of the project from After Effects CC (12) that can be opened in After Effects CS6 (11).

    Can I FaceTime someone from another country without being charged with international fees?

    here is how you actually do it put your phone in air plane mode you should see it when you open the settings app then go to wifi and turn it on this will let you use Imessage to text the person for free if they have a iPhone the same should apply for face time calling but since currently FaceTime can only be done over wifi it shouldn't charge you but the method above is what many would call a precaution ether way it should connect last resort download Skype face time app from app store setup account with both devices and you can chat over 3G or wifi without getting charged also enables connection for FaceTime to ios to android just in case any reader would like to connect to an android user that has a front facing camera.
