Mode filaire dans Illustrator CS4

Bonjour,
J'ai besoin, via CS4, de modifier des dessins techniques en les passant en mode filaire afin de modifier la taille des traits, par exemple.
Souvent, des documents pdf apparaissent avec des selections possibles de sections/rectangles et non trait par trait.
Comment faire?
Par avance merci pour votre aide.

En fait le problème d'un fichier pdf, tout comme un eps, c'est qu'il ne contient pas forcément des données vectorielles. Il peut également contenir des images en pixels. Ces dernières ne seront quasiment pas modifiables dans illustrator.
De quel logiciel provient le tracé ? Peut-être est-il possible de l'enregistrer différemment qu'en créant un pdf ?
Sous 3ds max il me semble qu'il est possible d'exporter en dwg, en principe ça s'ouvre sur illustrator mais le résultat n'est pas toujours très bon...
Sinon j'ai peur que la seule solution soit de redessiner tout le tracé en se servant du fichier pdf en fond comme modèle.
Eventuellement tu peux tenter une "vectorisation dynamique" après avoir sélectionné l'ensemble des rectangles, mais la qualité du résultat dépendra de l'image de départ.
N'hésites pas à en mettre un aperçu en pièce jointe si ce n'est pas trop confidentiel, d'autres solutions sont peut être envisageables...

Installation police dans Illustrator CS4

J'ai installé une nouvelle police dans Illustrator CS4 mais celle ci s'affiche dans la liste des polices avec un * et n'est pas reconnue par Illustrator. Que faire ? Merci d'avance

Sur mac ? sur PC ? par quel biais l'avez-vous ajoutée ? Est-elle disponible pour les autres applications du système ? (celui-ci nécessite-t'il un redémarrage ?)
Quand vous mentionnez l'astérisque, c'est sur un document ouvert qui doit contenir une autre version de cette police ?

Trouble getting Illustrator CS4 to run, and when it does: no workspaces

At work (University of St Andrews) I have Adobe CS4 Web Premium and everything installs and runs okay apart from Illustrator CS4.
I've tried to install it on two different PCs, both Dell Precision workstations. One had Windows XP Professional 32-bit, the new one has Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I get exactly the same behaviour on both. I've even tried to install it on Windows 7's XP Mode and I get the same error messages!
INSTALLATION #1
When I installed it I got an error saying "Done, with errors". Details showed:
Error
Adobe Illustrator CS4 LangPack (en_GB)
Error:
Error 2
When I then tried to run the application it just wouldn't start, it would throw up an error message. It simply would not start.
INSTALLATION #2
So I uninstalled it, reinstalled it and got the same error.
COPY FILES - NO WORKSPACES
I then read this advice on a forum:
"Do you have a working install of Ai CS4 on another computer anywhere?
If so, go into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator\Support\Required
and copy the Resources file to the same location on the computer that
encounters the error. I was having the same problem, but luckily I had a
working install on another OS, so I just compared the files between the
two installations and found the missing ones."
So I copied over these files from a working copy elsewhere in the department and this time the application ran but I now have no WorkSpace settings and cannot save any either.
INSTALLATION #3
I then uninstalled again and tried to reinstall. This time on the installer I was given a number of language options. Rather than English (International) I selected English (US) and lo! and behold! the installer ran without errors and the application opened ok and this time I had WorkSpaces... the only problem was that it would only run in trial mode because it wouldn't accept my serial number, which I'm guessing is for English (International) only.
INSTALLATION #4
Uninstall, again. Reinstall, again, this time in English (International).
Now the application opens but again I have no WorkSpaces, and cannot save any workspaces.
What can I do? Any idea how can I get a fully working version of Illustrator CS4 on my PC that includes workspaces?
Thank you
Gareth

Hi Carey,
Thanks for your post. I have followed your instructions and here are my replies:
Are you having any issues with your other Adobe products, or is it just Illustrator?
If just Illustrator, did you previously install the product separately (i.e. as a trial, or as a pre-release/beta)?
I am having problems only with Illustrator CS4. I have not installed the product separately, either as a trial or a pre-release or beta.
In fact, I installed Adobe CS4 Web Premium on a clean, newly installed, straight-from-the-Dell-factory Dell Precision T7400. It was the first application I installed, and Illustrator wasn't working straight after the installation.
I've not had any problems with other Adobe applications. The only time the serial number became an issue was when I tried to reinstall Illustrator CS4 using "English (US)" as an option, simply out of curiosity as this hadn't been an option with the original installation of the whole suite.
I followed the instructions:
Deleted C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS4.
Updated permissions for Public Documents (although when I reached step 12: "Click Apply and click Permissions tab." there was no Permissions tab).
Reinstalled Illustrator CS4 from the setup.exe file. You said uncheck everything else, however the following applications would not allow me to untick them:
Adobe Bridge CS4
Adobe Extension Manager CS4
Supporting Components:
          Adobe CMaps CS4

          Connect
          PDF Settings CS4
          Photoshop Camera Raw _x64
          kuler
The installer ran, and I got exactly the same error as before:
Error
Adobe Illustrator CS4 LangPack (en_GB)
Error:
Error 2
Now when I try to run Illustrator CS4 I get a dialog box saying:
Error
The localized resource files for this application could not be loaded. Please reinstall or repair the application and try again.
This is the ninth time I've tried to reinstall it.
I'll try to send you a direct message with the serial number and take it from there.
Thanks

Random character appears when outlining text in Illustrator CS4 !!!

Hi All,
Firstly, any help would be greatly appreciated.
My problem is shown below, I have an artwork containing live text produced in Illustrator CS4 on a Mac. On outlining the file for forwarding to prepress, a random "D" appears at the end of one of the sentences. I have been unable to find any reason for this. The "D" is not visible when the document is viewed in Outline Mode, it is not visible when hidden characters are shown, it cannot be selected using the text cursor, it appears regardless of what typeface is used, and there are no effects or transparencies applied to the text. Obviously this is of great concern, we produce artwork using live fonts, and on approval outline the files and forward them to a prepress bureau, the result of random characters appearing on printed material could prove very costly.
If the Illustrator document is saved as a CS2 compatible file from CS4, opened in CS2 and outlined this does not occur.
Thanks,

Same thing here, but in CS3. Files came from a client, but appear to have been created and saved in CS3 also. I couldn't fix it with CS5.
In our case, it's a phantom W that sits on its own line before another W. No hard return, no soft return, no spaces, nothing shows with invisibles on. You can select it (using the shift and arrow keys) and format it, and the changes show up when you outline it. Select it and type a different character, and it winds up on the next line next to the "real" W, as it should. Double-clicking the word selects the phantom letter as well.
Type is area type, and it's rotated 180° (packaging). Original fonts were Trajan Pro and UniversLTStd.
Anyone?

The preferences file is corrupt: adobe illustrator cs4

greetings!
every time i start illustrator i encounter a new error.
"the preferences file is corrupt and has been reset to the default settings."
"the corrupt file will be backed up as Adobe illustrator Prefs.err"
this problem manifested after i added some more .ai and .ase files to my swatches directory. i do not believe anything else changed.
not sure how to diagnose the problem. is there a debug mode or something? perhaps an offending file.
an option would be to try remove each added swatch file or folder individually, but this would e a very very time consuming process for me.
i use cs4 on a Macbook pro running Snow Leopard - 10.6.2 and would appreciate your advice.
thank you
-s

The problem is that you're not getting rid of the corrupt Illustrator preferences. To do that, go to User/Library/Preferences and drag the entire Adobe Illustrator CS4 Settings folder to the trash (or to another drive if you want to keep it for some reason). Illustrator will then create a new Preferences folder the next time it's started. It's unlikely the problem was caused by swatches files, but if the error comes back after deleting prefs, then you'll need to determine which swatch file is causing it.

Edging problem "thin white line" between paths in Illustrator CS4...

I am making a map of Europe with Illustrator CS4 for a documentary about WWI and how the Versailles Treaty carved up imperial Germany. After having traced imperial Germany before Versailles, I then carve out the territories given to neighboring states. The problem is these very fine white lines that appear between paths.
I have two paths right next to each other. But for some reason I see this very thine white line gap that shows up between them and becomes much more evident when I export into Photoshop. Please notice this very fine white line in the black image. What you see in this image are in fact two paths side by side. There should be no line between them. And I have no idea why this very fine line appears but it gets much worse in Photoshop much more noticeable. Please click on image to see the line more clearly.
Thank you very much in advance for any help or suggestions.

Dear Jacob and Peter,
Thank you both very much for your help.
Please see these photos showing my problem more clearly.
I am using Illustrator to draw the regions, Photoshop to consolidate the layers, and Apple Motion 4 to build my animation.
[1] : Imperial Germany in 1914.
[2] : Germany after Versailles.
In Illustrator CS4, the images [1] and [2] have the colored layers in "Multiply" transparency mode. It's how I want the layers to look when I import them into Apple Motion 4.
My idea was to color all the layers black in "Normal" mode and then apply "colorize" filters in Motion 4 and set the transparency to "multiply" in Motion.
Now with Imperial Germany (all layers colored in black with transparency set to "Normal"), when I bring the image into Photoshop, I suddenly get very fine white lines between the layers and these lines show up in Motion which is the big problem. Like I said, when you click on this last photo, and you see the image full size, you can clearly see the problematic lines which appear exactly where the layers touch each other. In the photo below, the territories ceded to Poland (West Prussia) and Lithuania (Memel) are not yet red. They are still black but you can see the lines.
I don't understand because in Illustrator there were no gaps whatsoever between the layers. In Illustrator CS4, I simply cut the "territorial losses" from imperial Germany using the "Trim" function in the Pathfinder Menu. I created the red and yellow layers from the original single "imperial Germany" layer. In Illustrator I can colorize all the layers black and still never see any gaps. The fine white lines, appear in Photoshop and in Motion.
(NOTE: The documentary is being in edited in Final Cut Studio which is why I use Motion for animating.)
Sorry to ramble on. Thank you again for any further help you can give me.

PSD Spot Color Channels in Illustrator CS4

Hi all.
Screenprinter here. Trying to migrate my way into CS4. No such
luck so far.
Way back in Illustrator CS2 I used to be able to place a PSD file with Spot Channels,
and have each channel show up as a separate object in Illustrator. This was incredibly
useful, nay, necessary for creating/laying out separations and adding vector work.
From what I've read and tried, this is no longer possible in CS4, which leaves me running two versions,
which is no fun.
I suppose my question is, has anyone come up with a workaround for this, or does the newest
release support this type of operation? From reading the boards, I've found that I'm not nearly
the only person who needs this feature, and so would hope that there is an alternative to
running CS2 still.
Us poor lowly screen printers get dumped on by nearly all Adobe products in terms of usability
(ever shoot the stock reg marks from photoshop?) give us this one feature!

In Illustrator CS2, the individual Spot Channels from Photoshop used to become Opacity masks when imported.
In Illustrator CS4, they are not converted to Opacity masks. Your spot colors are still there - look in the Swatches panel. There is a Spot channels image in the layers panel with 100% Multiply blend mode applied to it.
So it is not correct to say that it is no longer possible to bring spot channels from Photoshop into the Illustrator CS4. See the comparison snapshots below.
Hope this helps.

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!
Mary

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.

Help! Kuler in Illustrator CS4 - changes colours completely

Why is it that when I use the in-built Kuler extension in Illustrator CS4 the colour values are completely different when I "Add selected themes to swatches" to those on the Kuler website.
As an random example, take this theme: soothing by milolily   (http://kuler.adobe.com/#themeID/68960)
Here's what the colours are on the Kuler website and what they end up being in the Swatch palette in Illustrator:
R:52, G:97, B:107     --->     R:70, G:107, B:129
R:52, G:21, B:54     --->     R:82, G:48, B:55
R:123, G:137, B:156     --->     R:147, G:154, B:169
R:14, G:22, B:51     --->     R:26, G:32, B:63
R:160, G:189, B:140     --->     R:182, G:192, B:167
Check out the screenshot to see how huge the difference is visually.
I thought perhaps it was something to do with whether the Document Color Mode was set to RGB or CMYK but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
Any ideas anyone?? It's driving me insane!
Thanks

It's because theme is saved in CMYK. The RGB values displayed in kuler website are as per the Web color conversion whereas Illustrator utililises their own conversion. If you notice, in CMYK documents, values are displayed correctly.
Hope this resolves your doubt.

iag,
You may start looking at recovery methods as the ones described in these links (although the cases dealt with differ form yours, you may do something similar):
http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/troubleshoot-damaged-illustrator-files.html
http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/opening-illustrator-file-get-error.html

http://daxxter.wordpress.com/2009/04/16/how-to-recover-a-corrupted-illustrator-ai-file/
It is difficult work, but it may be worth it.
Working with the code, one specific way is to create a new empty document and create some very simple artwork in a copy of it (to see where the actual contents go), then move code from the corrupt file into the empty document and see what may be recovered that way.
Hopefully, this will appear less woolly once you start on it.
Edit: almost an hour after midnight here so I have to attend to other duties. The very best of luck.

Yosemite place psd or tif images in Illustrator CS4.

I have just upgraded to Yosemite and cannot place psd or tif images to Illustrator CS4. I need a high resolution image with a transparent background for print. Surely there is a fix for this.

ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR CS4 MAC pierde la ruta de las imágenes enlazadas

Hola,
ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR CS4 MAC pierde la ruta de las imágenes enlazadas, en cuanto lo gravas para originales. Si lo abres desde un cd tienes que volver a vincular, y puede crear confusión al proveedor ¿existe alguna solución? gracias

Hola creo que no me explicado bien,
Tu tienes una raíz de trabajo con archivo .ai y sus imágenes en una carpeta, lo gravas en un cd para el proveedor.
Abre el cd y el .ai no encuentra las imágenes, que siguen estando en la misma carpeta que hemos gravado. Por lo tanto tienes que tener desperdigadas
dentro de la carpeta de .ai, si no se pierde el enlace. También pierdes el enlaze se mueves la carpeta con todo el contenido. Es un error de programa los
demás programas no dan este problema. Se tiene solucionar.
Gracias

Illustrator CS4 crashes

Illustrator CS4 crashes when I'm resizing in edit content mode (clipping mask)!?

Thank you for your respond,
Mac Intel 10.5.7 2 Duo 4GB RAM.
The content of the clipping mask was 74MB PST photo,
To be precise I was resizing and moving the content with the mouse.
Trash the Preferences shtik it's the first thing that I've done
Restart.
The second thing that I done was to rebuild the entire art work in a new file,
Restart.
I even zapped the P RAM
In the end I kept going in and out of the clipping mask to finish the first job, and I have 3 more

Activate copy of illustrator cs4, i have CS3 design prem. installed

One of my users has a copy of CS3 design premium installed and we bought a copy of Illustrator CS4 to install on his machine. After the install it asks me for the CS4's S/N then asks me to supply a serial for any previous copy of illustrator cs3/cs2/cs and this is where the problem is. I dont technically have a serial for any previous copy of illustrator CS; i have serials for the full Creative Suite 3 Design Prem and when I try to punch in that serial it doesnt like it. so now currently the user is using Illustrator CS4 in trial mode...
All copies are legit - media in hand

If I understand correctly, you're out of luck. I think you can install an upgrade for the entire suite or an individual application depending on what you had purchased and installed before. The AI 14 (CS4) upgrade installer is looking for a standalone installation of an earlier Illustrator. The CS3 suite serial number, therefore, is not recognized.
It's all very silly to me, but if I'm right about this, your only recourse is to purchase the CS4 suite or the full install (not upgrade) version of AI 14.
Hope you kept your receipt for the AI 14 upgrade version.
