Jay2703 704 Posted April 13, 2012 Use File + Import to open .ai images. If the image is from a newer version of AI, it may need to be saved out as an older version .ai file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrismoore 0 Posted April 13, 2012 I did try that but all I get is a blank screen, how would I save it as an older version, and what older version? Again I dont have AI to open it with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay2703 704 Posted April 13, 2012 This will import to SignBlazer. It is not cut ready though. There are many layers on top of each other. MIller_High_Life.eps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted April 24, 2012 I'm having a similar issue but I can't even get my system to see the .eps files?? they have to be a version 8.eps. And make sure there is no bitmap in the image. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nonsense Inc 0 Posted April 26, 2012 what system are you referring to? when I try to pull up a .eps file is signblazer on my computer it doesn't see the files, doesn't even let me look for .eps files. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted April 26, 2012 You must import into Signblazer, go to folder where you have your files stored.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nonsense Inc 0 Posted April 27, 2012 I think I was just trying to open the file? Not sure, as I haven't had time to play with it with my 9-5 and personal life going nuts. I will see if I can import this weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodger 527 Posted April 27, 2012 I save to my desktop , then open with SignBlazer . That works on all the files I have tried . Edit ;I tried your file & it didn't work , It did open with Irfanview . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
