Sign Blazer to Adobe Illustrator

[Acrylic Conceptions 5]

So I need to send a file and it has to be a .eps file in CS3 or higher. I have had NO luck moving it out.

Any help?

File + Export from SignBlazer.

Export it as a .eps file.

Open the .eps file with Adobe and save is as the later CS3 version.

I read it as he has to email it as a CS3 or higher not that he had CS3.. I'm probably misunderstanding sorry...

You may be right.

I do have cs3....but right now I cannot get it to work. It will not bring up the file....

[Acrylic Conceptions 5]

Okay... I got file and the export. It will not bring up anything other then jpg, eps, dxf or tif..the sbd is not even an option.....

[Jay2703 704]

I'm confused.

Are you trying to export a .eps file from SignBlazer to open in Illustrator or export an .eps file from Illustrator to open in SignBlazer?

If you are trying to export from Illustrator, it nees to be exported as an .eps 8 or earlier.

I have a file in SignBlazer. I need to email it to a customer so that a factory in China can put his logo on some products he is making. They need it is a .EPS is AI version CS3 or higher. CS3 I have. But when I bring up SB and go to

<- File

- Export - The file does not show up.

Basically need to get the SBD file out and save it as a EPS

[Jay2703 704]

Open the SB file

File + Export

Name the file

Select .eps as the export format

Identify the export location directory

Uncheck the "Selected" box if you want to export the entire SB file

Clcik OK

Open Illustrator

Open the .eps file saved out of SB

File + Save As

Select .eps

Click Save As

Select the AI EPS version to save as

Click OK

Here is a vidio of what I do:

Open the file in SB> Select ALL> Export as >EPS (make sure you know where it exported too.) Open AI. Import or Open ( Sorry I am drawing a blank on which it is.) the file in AI. Select all again Then save as an EPS file

I will try both when I get home. but the selection at the bottom, I do not see "EPS" as available. I'll try again tonight.

[Dr12volt1338 116]

They are the same method my way just eliminates the risk of not unchecking the "Selected" box in the export screen for SB

It gives you a warning if nothing is selected.

It gives you a warning if nothing is selected.

Mine used to but since I upgraded to the All Cutter version it doesn't anymore.....

[Acrylic Conceptions 5]

Okay...this solved it all. I watched the video also. I was just going to "FILE" and then export, looking for the file and not seeing it. Now I went and OPENED the file I wanted to export and it looks like i was able to do it. I was able to open it in AI and "save as" the CS3 type. So now to just email my customer and see what happens.

thank you for the help again!
