Freehand vs Illustrator - the movie

Here are some features I'd like to see in Illustrator:

Of course. Illustrator is a mountain but why engineers with the turnkey solutions available from the transfer Freeheand. Just make a list of 100 features to vote what is best and take at least 10. Not! Invent the wheel again to just wound the sale of CS1-CS15

  • Why does the document window in illustrator cs6 move to the far left when I reopen the file?

    why does the document window in illustrator cs6 move to the far left when I reopen the file?

    Hi John,
    thanks for the fast response.  cs5 remembered the window position.  I like having the window in the middle as I have a 27" monitor.  I just upgraded to cs6 yesterday and I'm sure it was remembering the window document position.  I think.  If i find out how to fix this, I'll post it here.
    And while I'm on the subject of cs6, why the f*** did adobe combine the stroke and swatches pallettes?  Now I forever have to click stroke and swatch tabs all day.  And I love the army and navy file icons of photoshop and illustrator.  I won't comment on Acrobat X.  ; (

  • Illustrator crashes when I use the move tool. No help here in the forums. Ridiculous problem that is so basic and that completly ruins workflow.

    Illustrator (CS6, Creative Cloud) crashes when I use the move tool. No help here in the forums that I can see.
    As far as I'm concerned this is a ridiculous problem that is so basic - it should not happen for the price Adobe charges.
    Completely ruins workflow.
    Please help.

    Emily,
    Just to make sure, are all the faces of the Verdana and Tahoma fonts installed and enabled/activated through the OS (not font mangement) as TTF (not OTF)?

  • FreeHand and Illustrator aren't the same thing

    Freehand: The speedy, multipage, get-things-done when time is
    critical software. Intuitive tool for who those who depend on it to
    get work done quickly on a daily basis. Practical and intuitive.
    Illustrator: The fine art, take your time, gradient meshes,
    and all the filters you could ever want software. For that
    masterpiece you have all the time in the world to work on.
    Beautiful.
    Adobe should be making a fortune off of FreeHand as something
    different than Illustrator. Adobe hasn't put any of FreeHands gems
    into Illustrator. So, what's the plan Adobe? When will we see
    Illustrator benefit from Adobe's acquisition of FreeHand? Never?
    The door is wide open for the competition to fill the FreeHand
    void. I can't wait!

  • Text along path from freehand to illustrator problem

    Does anyone know a workaround for text along path conversion from freehand to illustrator?
    The problem is text along path in freehand which is slightly moved along path.
    The result after conversion to illustrator is an invissible (exept a red+ where the text should be)text. Sometimes you can't even correct the problemtext so you had to place hundreds/thousends of text (streetmaps) again after conversion.
    Exporting the Freehand file as illustrator 7 gives a much better result for the text part. (the art works is in this case seperated into lines and fills)
    The message I get opening the illustrator file in CS3 is that legacy text should be updated, clicking the update button and text is looking way better and there is less text to replace.
    Opening the Feehand file in CS3 doesn't give me this method... I'd like to...

    Sorry but the text doesn't contain empty spaces, it's text missing.
    The problem to be solved is conversion from Freehand to illustrator text along path which is justified (moved the slider in freehand to adjust the text placed along a path) is after conversion misplaced along the path and text is missing. In some case the text isn't adjustable because I can't crab a handle etc. The only solution is to place the text again. Any solutions?

  • Why does the move command move down instead of up?

    When I have an object selected and hit "Enter" it brings up the "Move" dialog box... why do positive vertical numbers move the item down and negative move it up?
    It was opposite before (going through Illustrator 3 through CS.) Is there a way to change it back?

    Tilde,
    They have reversed the Y axis. But you can unreverse it and get back to what you are used to.
    To change the ruler origin (and direction of the Y axis) in CS5 - CC(2014) to be the same as in CS4 and earlier, you may:
    A) Install and run the script in the OP of this thread,http://forums.adobe.com/thread/890507?tstart=30
    or
    B) Manually change the relevant preference settings as follows:
    0) Close down Illy (you can only change the preference file with Illy closed);
    1) Find and open the AIPrefs (Win speak) or Adobe Illustrator Prefs (Mac speak) file withe a text editor like Notepad or TextEdit; the preference file is a (hidden) file in the (hidden) folder Adobe Illustrator CS5 Settings
    2): Find and change the following two bits of code:
    /isRulerOriginTopLeft 1 >>> /isRulerOriginTopLeft 0 (change 1 to 0)
    /isRulerIn4thQuad 1 >>> /isRulerIn4thQuad 0 (change 1 to 0)
    This is a global change so you only have to do it once (just as you can undo it once).
    You may find the folder as described in <em><strong><a href="http://www.bugge.com/Family-and-friends/Illy/illy.html"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Move the folder</span></a></strong></em>.

  • Help setting the movement to pixel by pixel

    Good day fellow designers. I'm having a "not so good" situation. I hope you can help me guys. It's all about moving an selected object pixel by pixel.
    I have this object selected on photoshop. And I want to move it pixel by pixel. So what I did is I selected it then press the arrow keys. In photoshop,
    usually, this will make the object move pixel by pixel. But in my illustrator however, it's kinda different. It moves at least 3 pixel by 3 pixel. It's not
    accurate. I already tried playing with illustrator's preferences but still no good. I know it's just around there somewhere.
    Maybe someone can help me with this? Thanks and have a good day ahead! Cheers!

    Hmm, I already got that tweaked... But it still skips a few pixels when I move it. A solution that I currently have right now is move it via mouse. It gets
    the job done but the movement via arrow keys helps a lot specially when my workspace is starting to get laggy.
    EDIT :
    I already got it figure out. And yup, it's the keyboard increment. I got used to 1px that I've forgotten that I can also input much lower than 1px. I tried
    0.25px and it worked! : )
    Thanks mate. Cheers! : )

    They have to stop production of the illustratror and add the
    most cool
    feature of the illustrator in freehand or, they have to
    change all the meanu
    and shortcuts of freehand & illustrator as same, so that
    poeople can easily
    swich between them. Because it is very difficult for the
    designers to switch
    their ideas in new software environment. If they puzzle
    around the tols,
    then they can't deliver good creativity.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4/5 Crashes when using the Move Tool

    Hello. I'm here because I'm having an issue with Photoshop.
    I was trying out CS5 when it started to crash every time I tried to use the Move Tool. It was the generic error message: "Adobe Photoshop CS4 has stopped working.
    A problem has caused Adobe Photoshop CS4 to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
    Thinking that it was a CS5 issue, I went back to my copy of CS4, only to find the same thing happening there (I also downgraded because CS5 was also crashing at other random times for some reason, but that's an issue for another time).
    This puzzles me because both were working fine before. Granted, I hadn't opened them for a while, but it was a sudden thing.
    My first impulse was to uninstall and reinstall CS4. No luck. So then, I uninstalled all third-party plugins, thinking that might be it. Still, the same problem. I started looking around on Google for solutions and found the instructions on resetting the Tool preferences (I chose to reset the preferences for ALL of the tools). When that didn't work, I tried deleting the preferences file outright, which said instructions recommended. Nothing.
    I should note that Photoshop crashes when using the Move Tool to move an object without ant lines around it, i.e., a layer. I'll move the object, and after two to three seconds, the mentioned error message will appear and Windows will close Photoshop. This, however, only seems to happen after selecting, copying, and pasting part of a large object with some variation of the Marqee Tool (thus making that part a new layer by default) while working at a zoom of 100%. So, in short, working with a large image like <a href=http://www.wallpaper4me.com/images/wallpapers/ergo_proxy_267_1280-862301.jpeg>This</a> at 100% zoom. The image linked is the image that I was using and am currently using to reproduce the problem. It is 1280x1024 pixels. I have tested this with somewhat smaller, yet comparable images too. Same problem. I have never had this problem working with large images before, and I wonder if anyone has any suggestions short of formatting my hard drive.

    Even a decent RAM upgrade is usually only a few hundred dollars nowadays, but it's not a trivially simple process.  That said, with a little research and care you can do it.  Alternatively, you can hire people (e.g., "Geek Squad") to do such an upgrade.
    First, you'll need to know what your operating system capacity is.  For example, a 32 bit Windows system can really only use up to a bit more than 3 GB of RAM, while a 64 bit Windows system can use all the RAM you can find a place to plug in.  What version of Windows are you running?
    Then you'll need to determine what RAM you have installed and what your computer's maximum RAM capacity is - usually you can do this through internet research, either by visiting your computer manufacturer's web site or doing google searches.  There are even RAM manufacturer web sites that will tell you what kind of RAM your computer needs and suggest sources, for example:
    http://www.kingston.com/
    It may be that you can just plug additional chips into currently empty sockets, or it is possible you'll need to replace the RAM chips you have installed in your computer to make room for an upgrade.  Every computer is different.
    If you list your computer model and current RAM that you have installed here, it may be that someone can help with more specific advice.

    My hard drive in the computer is dying. I am using time machine to back up everything to my external hard drive. However, I am not sure it will take the movies from my iphoto.
    1. When I try and export my movies from Iphoto to my external hard drive it only allows me to export as jpeg not .mov
    2. When i just drag them the whole movies is not there.
    I really need help to do this asap as my computer keeps freezing and clicking now more often.
    Thank you

    To export a movie you must export it as kind is original otherwise you get the single frame JPEG preview
    and you should backup the entire iphoto library by dragging it intact as a single entity to a hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled)
