Exporting .dxf From CS4 Illustrator for Cutting

I am looking for a way to cleary Export .dxf files for Cutting (ioline Specifically)
The problem first occured when, I installed CS4, (this method was flawless in CS2)
The problem I am having is inconsistant, jagged, and incorrect lines when I load the export from CS4
Into the Ioline Rip Software.
Anyone that is familar with exporting for flatbed or roll cutters that can help me find a solution to this,
In the meantime I have to save the file as .eps then load the file in Corel and export as a .plt from there.
I can't stand Corel, so anyway to bypass this process would totally make my days easier.
I also have the Latest version of Wasatch, and I heard a small rumor that I could do my export dirty work in that...?

RedCurlz,
Rereading your OP, I made a search and found this two year old thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/1249346#1249346
As it appears, it seems that you will have to use CS2, or modify the .dxf file (simplify, create an .eps, or something else).
Seemingly, the curves should be jagged already when viewed in Illy (CS3/CS4). Is that the case?
Someone may know whether this CS3/CS4 bug has been fixed in CS5.
Someone?

Exporting DXF with Coordinates Illustrator to CAD program

Hi,
I often have to export graphics from Illustrator CS5 for use in Catia or Pro Engineer.
Usually, if it's a graphic I have made myself, all I do is drag the 0,0 on my rulers to the position on the artwork where I require the coordinate system to be placed in the DXF file and that's fine.
However, recently I have received files from other sources which need to be converted from a PDF to a DXF for use in my CAD programs and I am having difficulty relocating the coordinate system to the desired location.
For instance, if I convert the PDF to DXF without moving my 0,0 location on my rulers, sometimes the coordinate system is top left or bottom left of the artboard the PDF has been imported into Illy on. (It varies file to file). So I figured that if I move the 0,0 location of my rulers to where I want the coordinate system to appear, that should work because it usually does so in artwork I create. But it always gets overwritten. The only way I can counter this is to assume that the coordinate system is bang-on the corner of the artboard and move all my artwork to the corner and then convert the file to DXF.
I guess my question is, for those of you who have a similar task to do, is this the only way I can relocate the coordinate system (by moving the artwork to the corner, which seems a bit dodgy cos it's all on assumption) or is there a more accurate way to do so.
Thanks in advance.

I o not know if that is the only way but I will point out the reason you might be seeing 0,0 either at the to left or lower left is that in Cs 5 it has been change to the top left i CS 4 and earlier it was the bottom left, so depending on what version it was created from it might change this for you as well a way of changing this for you is to ask from them to save the file as an ai fie first in a version that is CS or earlier than make that a pdf.
Or what might be easier is to live with it until everyone changes to CS 5 or later?
Or make it a symbol and use the orientation proxy in the symbols options to select the orientation you desire.

Placing a ArchiCAD DXF into CS4 Illustrator

Hi everyone,
I am trying to open a DXF file into CS4 Illustrator but it's just not happening. The DXF is being provided by Graphisoft ArchiCAD. I've also been sent DXF files from autoCAD to test on to see if these open which also I'm afraid to say don't open either. The message I got for these was 'The operation cannot complete because there isn't enough memory (RAM) available', I have checked and there is more than enough memory.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Regards,
Fi

It worked fine for me…when I first double clicked on the file it opened Illustrator but not the file but when I doubled clicked again after AI was opened the file opened.
You can try File>Place or File Open if Double clicking on the fies icon does not work.
I will post this in the forum as well. You should not have any problems with this file which is AutoCAD 2000 or later.
I see now you are concerned about the lines not being connected perhaps this is not AutoCAD 2000 I think AutoCAD 2002 and after will open in Illustrator as object and not paths I just happen to select one that was connected but I see others are not you might need Concatenate for this if you had Concatenate by Rick Johnson already then you do not need to purchase it you can download the CS 4 version free.

Batch Exporting Clips from timeline in Final Cut Pro X

So ive looked at many forums and many sources and I know this isn't the first time this question has been asked.....but I was
wondering how I would be able to batch export clips from the timeline (about 100 or so) to use as Content for VJing (live media manipulation). Is there a simple way to acomplish this in Final Cut Pro X... I have heard remours that you can cut multiple clips in Quicktime Pro 7 but im not sure how eficiant this is, I also have heard that this is allot easier to acomplish in Final Cut Pro 7. If anybody knows a simple (and quick way) to acomplish this Im all ears!

If you want to batch export parts of your project, I believe that you'd better served by an external utility, like QTCoffee. Export your movie to Quicktime, and then use QTCoffee to create the various bits in one, er... batch.

Exporting files from CS4

Is there any way to export files directly from CS4 rather than going through Media Encoder? It just took over 7min to export out a :30 spot in DV AVI format. I was recently upgraded from CS3 to CS4 and am not liking the export functions in CS4.

No, everything must go through AME. 5.0 added the ability to do a Direct Export.
However, that probably isn't the cause of your slowdown.

Export mail from outlook 2002 for Entourage 2004 - how to?

Hi.
I've tried for some time now to export my mail from outlook 2002 for Entourage.. Can't say it's been easy, and I still haven't figured it out.
Can anyone help me with this..
and .. oh yes.. I'm a newbie at mac.. got it for only about a week or so now..
please bare with me..

I don't use contacts but I found this document that should help:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302268
However it does specify Outlook 2003 or later is required to sync contacts so that will be an issue for you.

How do I export video from Iphone4 to Final Cut Express?

I have been successful in exporting photos from the iPhone4 to iPhoto. An earlier post was told to use iPhoto for downloading/exporting video but that did not work with me. Suggestions?

Thank you again. I was able to use Image Capture which found all of my images but not the videos that I was looking for. Now, I realize that I have left out an important piece of information in this mystery -- the videos were shot using Vericorder's 1stVideo Net. Realizing this I went to their site which was no help to me. Now I am wondering if there is an app that works like the Mac OS X "finder" but on the iPhone???

Acrobat 9 (from CS4) asking for serial again after OS-upgrade to Yosemite. New installation not possible

Hi all, I feel quite desperate at the moment.
My old CS4 ran perfectly. Now I upgraded my system to Mac OS Yosemite and the trouble began.
First, Acrobat no longer ran properly and asked me to start e.g. Photoshop. What I did. Photoshop and all other CS4 applications no more worked beause of some license issues. I finally fixed this by means of Adobe's tool. I had to re-enter the CS4-Serial and Photoshop, Indesign etc. worked again. Not did Acrobat Pro 9. This application asked me to re-enter the serial. What I did. The serial was not accepted. I tried a thousand times. Then I uninstalled Acrobad Pro 9 and tried to re-install this application from the original CD. This does not work: The setup screen of my CS4 "Design Premium" stopped three times with the grey screen reading "Preparing to install". Other attempts ended up in error messages about JAVA etc. - The DVD simply does not work anymore with the new OS.
Can anyone tell me what to do? My search over Adobe's support pages never led me to a valid contact form or anything of use for this problem.
Thank you in Advance

A point worth pointing out is that, although CS versions may have included installers for Acrobat they were not for direct use; often (who can remember CS4?) you MUST use the CS installer, which uses the Acrobat installer in a special way; CS licensing is not like Acrobat licensing and Acrobat does not take a CS number. Nevertheless, I'd still advise a restore and not upgrading your OS without being prepared to upgrade everything else. (And it's still very early, this is a very brave/risky thing even for CC licensees).

Can't print from CS4 (Illustrator, Photoshop, Acrobat)

Here is the issue...
When I try to print from any of the CS4 programs (illustrator, photoshop, or acrobat) most times I get the
spinning color wheel and eventually the application quits. Sometimes I do get to the print dialog box but that's as far as
I get. The color wheel will start spinnng again.
Both CS4 and CS2 are installed on my computer. It is a Mac mini.
However, when I log on under a different profile (administrator) it prints fine.
I had an issue with CS2 and had to create a new profile. Then I got CS4, still using the newly created profile.
Thoughts?

We followed your instructions, deleting the Settings folder and then
removing
the main printer (Konika Minolta Bizhb 450 (Fiery X3eTY)). We then
put the
printer's IP address back in.
After this, we test printed a file in Illustrator to a Dell (which we
did not
uninstall). It printed without issue.
After reinstalling a driver from Minolta's site (Fiery X3eTY 35C-KM
PS v2.0
eu), all of the presets (including the user login information) were
back. We
then attempted to print from Illustrator. The print dialog box
popped up
without any problems. When we selected "Printer," the color wheel began
spinning. After a few minutes, the Force Quit option said that
Illustrator
was not responding.
This is what we are running on specifically:
Mac mini
Mac OS X 10.4.11
Process 1.66 GHz Intel Core Duo
Memory 1.25 GB 667 Mz DDR2 SDRAM
The memory info reads as follows
Memory Slot         Size    Type            Speed       Status
Bank 0/DIMM0        1 GB    DDR2 SDRAM      667 MHz     OK
Bank 1/DIMM1        256 MB DDR2 SDRAM      667 MHZ     OK

Exporting Video from Avid to Final Cut Pro

I saved video clips from Avid Adrenaline as .mov files and burned to disc. When I try to open disc, I have audio but no video. This may be a Quick Time issue, but I am out of time. Does anyone know an easy way for me to get the video out of Avid into my system?

additionally, you might want to export some sample color bars along with your media. I have found there is a rather drastic color shift, that took two CC filters to correct for, when following this workflow.

No exporting Jpegs from CS4?

Is a windows bumpmap the only still image file I can export out of premiere CS4?
CS3 could do jpegs I am pretty sure.
I suppose it's not a big deal seeing as I can bring my .bmp files into photoshop and transcode them as jpegs....
Why is CS4 so gimped on image exporting?
thanks,
Peter

you can use AFTER EFFECTS if you want to export to PNG, BMP, JPG, TIFF, still image formats

Print output from CS4 Illustrator

I need to output gradients in Illustrator with a dot pattern of 35 lpi. Illustrator only shows the default lpi as low as 50. Does anyone know how I can manipulate the lpi output in this program?

Export from Adobe Illustrator to Wissen Castop Plus 99

Hello
We have a DGI Omega OM-130 Plotter. I can only find drivers to run this from Windows XP, using Wissen Castop Plus 99.
While this works for sending flies to plot, the software isn't up to much in making the artwork, so the machine is hard to use.
Ideally we need a way to export files from Adobe Illustrator (MAC) to Wissen Castop Plus 99 which uses WMP or WPF file types.
We have tried the CoCutPro2 plugin for Illustrator, but this only exports HPGL files and I've no idea what they are.
I'd also be open to non-obvious ideas for getting the plotter working with anything other than Win XP, even command line if it will plot any standard file type.
I'd also consider scripting in Illustrator.
thanks.

Whose file formats are WMP & WPF? Have never heard of these unless they are for Windows Media Player & Word Perfect Forms, which are not graphic formats.
What other file formats can Castop Plus 99 accept? Below is form their website.
Designed for compatibility, Wissen Castop Plus 99 includes import filters for 23 different file formats and as an OLE client, your jobs can contain links to work in other OLE server applications.
You should be able to import 23 different file formats. PDF would be great cause you can make a PDF from nay software and bring that into Castop. Does it come with Traceline, that is their software to convert bitmap to vector, so I would assume these WMP & WPF are vector formats.
