Is it possible to connect Adobe Illustrator with my application?

I have an application that creates 3D objects from 2D sketches and visualises these 3D objects using OpenGL. For example you pass it 2D square it creates a cube, if you pass it a circle it creates a sphere. These 3D objects can be rotated, moved, changed color, also the view(camera) can also be rotated, zoomed.
Is it possible to create a plugin for Adobe Illustrator to pass its 2D sketches into my application? May be I can embed my application into Adobe Illustrator? How can I do this?
Example. In Adobe Illustrator I draw some 2D geometry: squeares, circles etc. Then I press a button "Move to 3D". Then the 2D data is transfered into my 3D application and gets processed. After this user see 3D objects into a 3D scene and can manipulate them.

Hi Geotavros,
You can have panels in Illustrator that take their content from native Windows or Mac components so you should be able to display the same rendering components that you use in your application in an Illustrator Panel. I would suggest looking at the EmptyPanel sample as a starting point as this shows how to create a panel that uses native components. You should be able to change this sample so that it displays OpenGL and then work from there. Panels are dockable so it sounds to me like that might fit your needs well.
If you still find that you need some IPC I would suggest using the CS Communication toolkit which is provided with CS Extension Builder 2.0 it has a C++ (and actionscript) library that makes sending and receiving messages to the CS applications easier. Along with some convience functions for starting up the CS applications.
I hope that helps,
Let me know if you have any questions,
Thanks,
Robert

Personal Hotspot is, in fact, the only way to pair your phone & iPad by Bluetooth. File transfer, by Bluetooth, has never been supported on any iPhone.

Hi Graffiti,
Thanks so much for your resply. I am happy to say that the problem has been fixed by my customer updating her version of Adobe Reader 9 to the latest version. I had sent her a few suggestions on how to try to fix the problem including that one from info I had read on the forum etc.. and that was the solution that worked. I am so relieved that I was able to fix the problem and to answer your question the blank pages were only graphics no text but they were the only pages that the graphics took up the whole page. I thought that was strange and had her change a setting in preferences for printing large images a solution I read in the forum but it did not work.

Is it possible to use Adobe Illustrator in multiple computers with the same account?

Hi guys,
So our company is a small designing tile company,
we wanted to purchase the Adobe Illustrator and was wondering if it was possible to use it in multiple computers with one account, as we have two computers that are frequently use for designing, or do we have to buy two separated Adobes Illustrators for each computer?
Thanks

Business Contact Manager 2010 - is it possible to connect a Contact with multiple Accounts

Hi, I'm proficient with Outlook but new to BCM. Currently setting things up but have some Contacts who own more than one company or are on another companies Board etc.
My questions is - Is it possible to connect a Contact to more than one Account?
Many thanks

Hi,
Currently it's not possible. The workaround may be to duplicate the contact in Business Contacts to make that happen.

Import Adobe Illustrator With Transparent Background?

I love using Adobe Illustrator for creating graphics/logos for use in our vidoes. For example, I'll lay out some text (a group of names) and a couple of logos on one page. Then I want to import it into FCP. But everytime I try to do this, it imports with a white background. I've tried changing the Alpha Channel settings in the FCP Browser, but they have no effect.
If I open the file in Photoshop, the graphic will import with a transparent background. Then I can save it as a PSD and import it into FCP. This always works fine. But it's a big pain to have to go through Photoshop, just to use Illustrator as my graphic design software of choice.
Is there a way to go straight from Illustrator into FCP?

We need to deploy Adobe Illustrator on the server and then call it through script so that it could convert raster image provided through script into FXG format file. The implementation is for commercial use. Please let me know the process and possibility of getting license.

Guide to connect Adobe drive with Alfresco CE

Hallo everybody!
Since adobe remove version cue, i search for a replacement. Can somebody please write a short guide how to configurate Alfresco CE to optimal work with adobe drive? Its drive me creasy, bljad! I think, i am not alone with this problem. Feel free to write here everethink, you found about it. Together we find a solution, i think.
The interest were (after connect Adobe drive to Alfresco CE):
- how configurate the space, where Alfresco CE saving the files ?
- how to set permissions to Alfresco CE drive to chek in the files from adobe programms?
- in bridge i cannot see the thumbnails of files (only the standart thumbs, maby it has something to do with the permission rights?)
- how can thomebody else from anywhere connect to Alfresco Cmis that is locally on my pc, like earler in versioncue, to callobarate)
Thanks to everybody for suggestions and help!
Adobe drive 2.1
Alfresco CE 3.4

Hi Borisbritva,
To work with Adobe Drive, you just need to install and launch Alfresco CE server. No special configuration.
Section 'Using the CMIS Connector' in CMIS CONNECTOR FOR ADOBE DRIVE 2.1: TECHNICAL NOTE doc shows the detailed steps on how to connect Alfresco server with Adobe Drive 2.1. Below is the link for the tech note:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/creativesuite/cs/adobedrive/CMIS_Connector_Tech_Note.pdf
For "how configurate the space, where Alfresco CE saving the files ?" & "how to set permissions to Alfresco CE drive to chek in the files from adobe programms?", I think you need to read Alfresco Document ( http://www.alfresco.com/resources/documentation/ ). For simply try, use admin account to connect Alfresco Server with Adobe Drive. CMIS CONNECTOR FOR ADOBE DRIVE 2.1: TECHNICAL NOTE doc gives the detail info about how to browse, check in, and check out files.
For "in bridge i cannot see the thumbnails of files (only the standart thumbs, maby it has something to do with the permission rights?)", Adobe Drive 2.1 with CMIS connector doesn't support it. But Adobe Drive has exposed API to retrieve thumbnails of files. If you have interest, you can download Adobe Drive SDK ( http://www.adobe.com/devnet/adobedrive/eula_21.html ) and try it.
For "how can thomebody else from anywhere connect to Alfresco Cmis that is locally on my pc, like earler in versioncue, to callobarate)", Adobe Drive 2.1 with CMIS connector support it. Just replace 'localhost' with you external IP address in Server URL when connect to Alfresco server.
Thanks,
Hui

Not able to integrate the Adobe flex4 with BSP application.

HI,
I have created one flex4 application using the BSP(XML). I am able to run the flex application, data retriving properly and working fine.but when I imported the SWF file into BSP application(MIME Repository) and if I run the application from the BSP (HTMLfile ). it's giving the Error # 2302.
and at the same time I have created flex application using flex builder 3 using BSP then its working fine again.I am able to execute the application from the BSP also.
Is it possible to integarte the Flex4 with BSP?
Thanks and Regards
Aravind.

flash 4 is very much compatible.
can you check in your falsh builder whats set at
Project->Properties->Flex Build Path->Framework Linkage
is it merge into code or RSL?
you should use merged into code.
Also when you refer the swf file in your bsp page are you using relative url for the swf ?
