Illustrator CS4 saving vector art for Microsoft Word

I have a logo created in Illustrator CS4. I saved the file for use in Microsoft Office using the "save for Office", exporting as a .wmf, and even saving the vector art in Photoshop as a .png. I can get a variety of formats to work well in Word documents.
Here is the problem. The Word document will eventually be saved as a PDF. When the file is saved as a PDF document (from Word), the color is changing in the PDF file. How can I correct this? I've tried saving in both rgb and cmyk color modes, but the color changes once it hits Acrobat and is printing differently than the Word file. It is driving me crazy and I cannot figure this out.
Thanks for any help!

The type is not vector it is raster it is no longer outline.
Check to see if you can select the individual letters in AI if you cannot it has be rasterized and is an image not vector.
If you open my files you will see that they are selectable in Acrobat and AI.
You seem confused and I do not understand why.
Attached is a word file with vector art and type make a pdf from that and see the difference.
Also make certain you have Illustrator editing capabilities turned on when exporting to pdf from AI.
Can you attach one of the eps or the esp you made the sample file from.
Do not rasterize the outline text art.
It won't let me attach a word document.

Which Illustrator CS3 files are editable in Microsoft Word?

Dear all
I need to design something using InDesign and Illustrator CS3 (or just one of these depending on the responses I get).
Is is possible to save a particular file type out of either Illustrator or InDesign which can then be opened & edited in Microsoft Word (on a PC)? It would mainly just be text which would need to be edited in Word afterwards.
Thanks in advance,
Adam

>Which Illustrator CS3 files are editable in Microsoft Word?
None of them.
>Is is possible to save a particular file type out of either Illustrator or InDesign which can then be opened & edited in Microsoft Word (on a PC)?
You can export text from InDesign and open/edit that text file in Word, but you will not get layout, page size, columns, margins, or graphics. You can export art from Illustrator as EMF or PNG (I much prefer PNG) them import those graphics normally and position as you want.
Making your Illustrator or InDesign file into an editable Word file means doing a lot of it over again in a much worst interface.

Need a suitable app for Microsoft word, excel

Need a suitable app for Microsoft word. Can you guys please help me out with a good app to use for access word, power point and excel? Greatly appreciate it.

There is no such animal as Office Pro 2010 for a Mac. There is either Office 2008 or 2011. Both only run on a Mac computer, not on an iPad.
What I know is that what I referred to you works on an iPad. They can read and edit Office files. Whether you will find they meet your standards I cannot say.

Invalid path for Microsoft Word

I had set a path for Microsoft Word as below c:
serverip\B1_SHR\WordDocs\English, but I still get the "invalid path error".
Please advice

Hi,
I have set the path like this following and nothing happened:
C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\WordDocs\English\
but when I try to use the path like you are using:
C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\B1_SHR\WordDocs\
I've got the same error message with you.
So, one of the solution is to avoid using the folder B1_SHR. The path should be used different since every users will not probably export their file in one folder.
Although you find that there is excldocs folder in the B1_SHR and you success to export to excel , it won't be available there but it will available in this path:
C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\ExclDocs\
rgds,

Vector art for bike chain ring

Scouring the internet i've been unable to find existing free vector art or a tutorial on how to create a bicycle chain ring. There is plenty of links to drawing cogs but the bike chain ring has a rounded tooth which I haven't been able to figure out how to create. Would appreciate any links to tutorials or existing vector art for a bicycle chain ring. Thanks.

Draw one of the gear paces with two halves of the projections.
then Use the Effect>Distort and Transform>Transform to make it a ring.

Illustrator CS4 - when I save for web my vectors are pixelated. Help!

I recently updated to CS4 (I know, I'm still behind the times) but ever since when I 'save for web' my vectors appear pixelated. It seems worse when I want a transparent background. My images are for web and this just won't do.
I've read a lot on this and can't seem to fix my problem, but here is what I have tried: Anti-Alias is checked, view > pixel preview, view > overprint preview, object > rasterize, and probably a few other things. If anyone can help me with this issue it would be GREATLY appreciated!! I've attached an image so you can see what I'm talking about. I created this schematic in Illustrator CS4 and saved for web with a transparent background and, as you can see, it appears pixelated everywhere.

I'm not sure what you're looking for but here is my save for web options. Let me know if you're looking for something else. And thank you for trying to help!!

Exporting Flash vector art for print

I would like to export art created in Flash as a vector
format for print. Exporting as either AI or EPS from Flash seems to
have many limitations: no support for masks, alpha transparency, or
editable text with fonts embedded. Has anyone found a workflow to
create print-ready vector art using Flash?
I have tried many combinations of Flash, Freehand, and
Illustrator with no success. (Freehand will open SWF files, but it
rasterizes the vector art when exporting as either EPS or PDF).
Working in Flash Pro 8, but from the Flash CS3 documentation
it doesn't look like there are additional options for file export.
Is it true that any vector art exported from Flash loses font info,
masking, and transparency?

Has anyone found a good solution for this? I need to export character art from Flash to use for print and consumer product items. Qualtity vectors are required.
The "best" solution I've found so far is to "Print" as either a .PDF or .PS file, then open that file in Illustrator. It expands all the gradients, and creates very complex vectors, but it's better than the standard export to .AI function, which gives offending operator "bg" errors. Still, it is a sub-par result, and I end up having to recreate art anyway.
(I'm using Flash CS4.)
Dear Adobe, this should be a no-brainer ... Please introduce a true vector export feature from Flash to Illustrator that generates art we can actually use.

Saving pdf document as microsoft word

How do I save a pdf file as a text or Word file if the original file was a scanned jpeg file of a typed page or page from a book? That is, I have a typed manuscript from before the computer era that was never digitally entered as text. Instead of retyping the whole thing, can I scan it and then somehow extract the text so that it can be save and edited as a text or Word file? I've heard it is possible to do this. Adobe's ad pitch for Acrobat 8 Professional seems to claim it can do this but it's not very clear.
It says: "Eliminate the need to rekey information. If you don't have the original file from which a PDF document was created, you can still leverage the text and graphics while preserving formatting and layout....With Adobe® Acrobat® 8 Professional software, you can save a PDF document as a Microsoft Word file and then edit directly in Word. This helps facilitate the reuse of content when you're starting a new project, or when you need to repurpose existing text and graphics for other projects."
Of course, if the pdf file was originally a text or Word file, even Acrobat Reader can do this, simply by hitting the "Save as text" button (though the original formatting may be lost). Is this what Professional means by "leverage the text"? That's useless for me. Or do they mean recognize and extract text from a jpeg file? If Acrobat Professional can do this, can Acrobat Standard also do it? Since this is the only function I really need, I wonder if there's a cheaper way to do it.
I use a PowerBook G4 Mac with OS X 10.4.11 operating system.

OCR means "optical character recognition". When you have a scanned
page, there is no text in it, just a collection of dots which the
human brain can see as letters. Computers aren't as smart as the human
brain in this case, but OCR is the best it can manage: it uses
guesswork to try and find the letters. This sometimes works very well
(good, clean scan of clean first-generation later print), sometimes
very poorly (faxes, things which were ever saved as JPEG, poor scans),
sometimes it is hopeless (handwriting, web graphics).
Anyway, Acrobat can do OCR - see the help. Be sure to read closely
about the options, the default will not help you in this case.

Illustrator CS4 saving two copies of EPS each time

Hi all. My copy of Illustrator CS4 for Mac has recently started saving two copies of every EPS file that I save – eg. if I create an illustration, then choose "Save as" and save my file, I get "name.eps" and "name-01.eps". Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Jason

Hi Scott,
"Use Artboards" was checked, and unchecking it has solved the issue – although I was only using one artboard.
Thanks for your help.
