How do I edit an illustrator file saved as a jpeg?

I have an assignment I'm working on, in my color theory class. I saved the file for web, but I didn't save the illustrator file as a copy to edit. Is there a way i can edit the original image, and reopen the layers?

So you exported the file from the Save for Web dialog and then closed the AI file without saving? If that was the workflow, then there is nothing you can do except recreate the file.

  • How do i edit an eps file?

    How do i edit an eps file in illustrator? I've downloaded the file from shutterstock but don't know how to edit the text etc.

    You need to first check if it is editable text.
    Go in outline mode (View > Outline). Then check if the text in filled black or just outlined. In case it's outlined, you can't edit it.

  • How can I edit a mp3 file and drop it in an iMovie project?

    I wish to edit an mp3 music file so that I can drop a piece of it into an iMovie project. iMovie's audio tools are very rudimentary---one can reposition a music file, shorten it, etc but cannot pick a piece of it to complement a movie segment.
    So I dropped the mp3 file into GarageBand. I deleted the first section of the song, then selected the 16 second piece I wanted to include in my iMovie, using the copy command. Then I pasted the piece into a new GarageBand project screen. The piece wouldn't play, and when I selected "export" the piece neatly went to where I wanted it, but again with no sound.
    So simply: how do I edit an mp3 file (cutting a piece of it) and then save it so I can apply it to an iMovie? Help!

    it should have played, but you can do it easier by exporting just the section you want:

    How do I edit a PDF file using Acrobat 9 - Version 9.4.0
    I need to edit - copy, extract text, add text, etc. from existing PDF files to SAVE my changes,
    or create a new PDF file from an existing file.
    This is very important for me to be able to do my job effectively.
    I spent over 2 hrs the last few days, and another hour today, still can't do it.
    PLEASE respond ASAP with a solution.
    Thanks in advance,

    PDF is an end destination format - although Acrobat is capable of making minor changes to a file (e.g. to correct typos) it is not a word processor or DTP application. Major changes must be done in the original document, and the PDF file re-exported.
    You can copy text from a file by selecting it and right-clicking, or you can save the file as plain or formatted text. To make small changes to the text on a page, use the touchup tool - see the help file for more info.

  • How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?

    How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?

    Well, you don't. Editing a PDF is a difficult and fraught business even with the most expensive software.
    But PDF Pack lets you export to Word; then often you can edit in Word. Now you can make a new PDF. It might look like the original, or it might not. If small changes matter you might be out of luck. ON NO ACCOUNT USE THIS FOR GOVERNMENT FORMS.

  • How do i edit a PDF file that was sent to me in an email?

    How do i edit a PDF file that was sent to me in an email?

    Depends on the extent of the edits. You will need Acrobat in any case. If the edits or minor, you can use the text edit tool. For major edits, you need to request the original file be sent or see if you can Save As a DOC or related file type. PDFs are not really structured for editing and you are asking for a lot of grief if you want to do much. Exporting is the best way, or even better simply asking the author for the original (non-PDF type).

    Doug's got it right. It sounds like you are trying to open a later version file in an earlier version. This will always be handled as opening the PDF portion of the file. Try Googling AI_openMultiPagePDF for a script to open these or Resave from the newer version to the older.

  • How can I edit my PDF file on cloud?

    I cannot figure out how can I edit my PDF file on Acrobat Pro cloud version.

    Hi abulr60330783,
    I've checked your account, and couldn't see what version of Acrobat that you have. You may be referring to the Acrobat DC which Adobe announced this week, but that isn't available just yet.
    So, for the time being, you'll need to use Acrobat Pro XI or earlier to edit PDF files. You can download a 30-day trial from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Edit an illustrator file in after effects

    Hi, is there any possibility to edit an illustrator file after it has been added to after effects as a composition?

    You can right click on your illustrator layer in you AE timeline and go to "create vector shapes from layer". This will create separate shape layers and allow you to modify each one separately in AE. For me this works many times if I just want to make some small tweaks to the shapes.
