Scaling Adobe Illustrator file - vector original but becomes pixilated

When I scale my vector graphics in AE they become pixilated. Where is the "Continuously Rasterize box" in 5.5? I can't find an icon that looks like a sun, and nothing comes up in the help box when I type it in

This is the same question that you asked (and I answered) here:

How to get .ai (Adobe illustrator) file properties???

Hello to all,
I am using c# window application framework 3.5 .I am working on the graphics search engine . Now i want to get the .ai (Adobe illustrator)files properties so please help me how to get .ai files properties?????

Illustrator file is not just simple one image, that there will be a single image height, width and bit depth available. Illustrator file is made of two components, one is PDF and another is Illustrator private data called PGF. PDF spec is available to everyone while PGF has very limited documentation, but both of them are vector based format, it can contain paths, images, gradient, text etc. They can have multiple pages of varied sizes and each page can have multiple images. So there is no single image height, width or bit depth for the entire file in total.

"This is an Adobe Illustrator file that was save without PDf content."

I have a client that has been working on a file in AI CS, never left his machine, but when he went to open it today he gets a message that says this file "was generated by a newer version of Illustrator. Would you like to import this file? Some data loss may occur".
And when we click the "Import" button, we then get:
"This is an Adobe® Illustrator® file that was saved without PDF content. To place or open this file in other applications, it should be re-saved from Adobe Illustrator with the "Create PDF Compatible File" options turned on. This option is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog box, which appears when saving an Adobe Illustrator file using the Save As command."
However, even though this was created in AI CS, all other machine and all other versions of AI (even CS3, 3.3, 2, etc..) we get the same exact error message. How it can be newer than CS 3.3 when it was created in CS is strange to begin with.
I assume this is some sort of corruption, but was wondering if there were any cures. It seems our backups have backed up this file in it's current state (corrupt), which is a huge issue at this point.
Thank you very much for any help!

I have sometimes had this trouble since I updated Acrobat.
"This is an Adobe® Illustrator® file that was saved without PDF content ..."
Not sure what's wrong - it seems to happen even though the Illy file is saved with PDF content and everything embedded.
Another thing: When viewing pdfs under Advanced>Print Production>Output Preview I repeatedly get an RGB simulation preview even though I know that the file is CMYK. So I have to choose a CMYK simulation preview and then things look o.k.
Is there any way to stop the RGB preview coming up? I note that Convert Colours messes things up completely, so it's only the preview that's wrong.
Any ideas, Wade?

Why is my CS6 Adobe Illustrator file so large?

I duplicated one of my previously created CS6 Adobe Illustrator files (28 MB) with photos that have clipping masks. Why is my new AI file now 148 MB in size, when all of my newly linked jpeg graphics total only 9 MB? If I save it as a regular pdf it's 148MB, but if I save this same file with the smallest size pdf format, it reduces it down to only 242 KB. No files are embedded either in my newly created AI file. My business associate working on other Illustrator files experiences this same phenomenon sporadically at times too. It has us both baffled.

But why isn't the pdf embedding the jpegs, and use the file size of the jpegs? Are you telling me that the pdf editing compatibility function is actually converting the jpeg information into a uncompressed format? That's crazy, because all the similar Illustrator files that came before this one, used the same method and similar jpegs in size, and AI file size was negligible (700k to 2 MB size) on those previous files even though pdf compatibility was checked when saving in .ai format.
What's more, I tried resaving that ai file without pdf compatibility and file size is just as large as before. It made no difference. I also resaved those jpegs in Photoshop with the save for Web option. It still didn't make a difference. However, if I save those as pdfs using the smallest file size rather than [Illustrator default] and editing capatibility it make a big difference-down into the KB size range.

This is an Adobe Illustrator File that was saved without PDF Content.

Hi everybody,
I'm working in illustrator CS6 and I am trying to save my file as PDF. However I can't seem to do it.
I save the file as an ai. file and click the "Create PDF Compatible File" option. Then when I click >save as >and opt for the PDF version and click save the PDF file comes up with no images and just the .....
This is an Adobe® Illustrator® File that was
saved without PDF Content.
To Place or open this le in other

Adobe Illustrator with the "Create PDF
Compatible File" option turned on. This
option is in the Illustrator Native Format
Options dialog box, which appears when
saving an Adobe Illustrator le using the
Save As command.
This hasn't happened before when saving to PDF previously. If you could offer any help or advice I would much appreciate it.
Cheers

Rosie,
This is seriously weird: even if you have Create PDF Compatible File unticked you should be able to Save As PDF.
There may be something corrupt, so the list may be worth trying:
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media, see below. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

PDF export of adobe illustrator files loses layers

When we export an iBooks Author file as a PDF (best quality), Adobe Illustrator files that have transparent layers lose their transparency.
The .ai files look fine iBooks Author (where is gives the file name of the image as a .pdf because that is how iBooks author imports .ai files), and when you Preview the file in iBooks on the iPad, and the transparent layers are there.
It is only when exporting to PDF that the image breaks.

The problem was in "printing" the PDF.
The issue was completely resolved by printing the iBA file to a Post Script file, and then indepently using Adobe Distiller to produce the final PDF.
It makes no sense to me why using Print to Adobe PDF from the iBA print menu works any differently than using Distiller on a .ps file. But whatever, it works, and it is beautiful.

Adobe Illustrator files display washed out

Since Preview and other apps such as Keynote and Pages handle Adobe Illustrator files, I have to wonder why they display all washed out, whether there are copy and pasted or the file is actually opened in the program.
http://www.revvvv.com/example1.jpg

What version of Adobe Illustrator are you viewing the files in?
Is the document color mode CMYK or RGB? How are the "black" areas of the art defined?
In other words, is the black defined as:
C: 0
M: 0
Y: 0
K: 100
Or, is it defined as a "rich" black, for example:
C: 60
M: 50
Y: 50
K: 100
I'm not sure about versions of Illustrator prior to CS3, but recall that Illustrator CS3 and CS4 have a preference for "Appearance of Black". This preference setting determines how 100K Black and Rich Blacks will appear on screen as well as in print. I believe the default is to display all blacks as Rich Black.
So, I'm guessing that while the black in your document is defined as a regular 100K black, the "Appearance of Black" preference setting is causing Illustrator to display it as a rich black. If you save this file as a .ai and embed ICC profiles, then open it in Preview, Preview will display the 100K black as a more "washed out" black like Illustrator would do if you chose to "Display All Blacks Accurately".
Hope this helps....

Hello! I understand I can download Adobe Illustrator CS2 for free but I don't know where to

Hello! I understand I can download Adobe Illustrator CS2 for free but I don't know where to. Can somebody help me out with this? Thank you very much.

Hello Stanislav,
to my knowledge these downloads in Download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products is subject to certain conditions, for example: "The serial numbers provided as a part of the download may only be used by customers who legitimately purchased CS2 or Acrobat 7 and need to maintain their current use of these products."

How to Show preview of adobe illustrator file on web browser

Hi All....
Is there any possibility to showing preview of adobe illustrator file on web browser through Flex or Flash or any other application.
If any kindly suggest me.

Hi Mylenium
Thanks for all your suggestions..
While Googling on this issues I come to know that Illustrator file can be exported in XAML format with the help of a small plug-in, and that XAML file can be use in Microsoft silverlight. Then we can preview our Illustrator artwork on web browser. Also we can select each artwork (line, point, shape etc) on design view (on Microsoft Expression Blend). This is what I required.
Here is a link for Illustrator to XAML Exporter

Export graphics to Adobe Illustrator file format

Does anyone have or know where to get a "hello world" type script to save Java2D objects to a Adobe Illustrator file format.
I have looked at the file format specification and it is quite detailed. Just hoping for something to get me started, as the graphics I want to export are not too complicated.
Thanks

Why do Adobe Illustrator files look blurry when Replicated?

When I replicate a group of Adobe Illustrator files, the Replicator output is blurry.
Take a look at this screencast for more details.
I've turned off Fixed Resolution for each layer. The group of AI layers scales fine and stays crisp at any scale. However, when I replicate the group, the output is blurry.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I'm moving down the question list
In the Replicator inspector, turn on 3D. Turn on Best from the Render > Quality menu.
Also, if you're exporting to a movie file and you're working in Normal or Draft quality settings, in the Export dialog, make sure to click the Render option button and set Render Quality to Best as well. Sometimes it's easier to work in Normal, especially if you're using emitters and render out at Best. With the export dialog, you can make "final decisions" to the render separately from your workflow. (Export is set to "Use canvas setting" by default.)

Importing adobe illustrator files into powerpoint. (Vector)

How can I import vector Illustrator files into Powerpoint, so I can edit them later. I have tried PDF (won't work), WMF text breacks up and scaling makes the text crap!
EPS looks rubbish.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Need to edit the graphic colour and change update text.
Then you can't build it in Illustrator; at least not all of it.*
...or create in Power point...
.That's your answer. Ultimately, Powerpoint-editable = Powerpoint native.
...which is very limited!
Are you just assuming that, or have you actually tried to do something and found it impossible? Plenty of drawing can be done in Powerpoint, and text is text. What exactly are you trying to do?
*If you are running Windows, there are ways to get straight Illustrator vectors (no live effects, blends, meshes, etc.) onto a Powerpoint slide using Paste Special. Forget text though, seeing as you need it live and editable in Powerpoint...you'll have no choice but to set it in Powerpoint.
