Cannot modify an imported placed the file have

Hello

I placed a native AI file into another document of the I and I can't edit the imported file.  It has a bounding box that I can adjust the size, but it won't let me change the color.  Also described logo isn't real text, does this means that I can't change it later?

I have also included a second screenshot of an error message I get when I import / place one single AI file to another.

Any help would be really appreciated.

What you place is not the file, but its private PDF data fork. In case you need to make some changes, maybe copy and paste a better way.

That said: embed the file and then you can change which slept editable.

The error tells you that color management is configured differently now. Currently, keep you the CMYK numbers. When the file has been implemented you converted in the profile.

  • placed the file have illustrator but keeping the limit of illu artboard size

    Hello world

    I have a graph composed in illustrator to a certain size and this imported into indesign. I have another graph (diff size) using the same size of document HERE which I would like to place it directly on the previous chart position, is this possible?

    Whats happening is as soon as I put the second chart its debut x, change of coordinates y which is normal, but I want to keep x, coordinates are the same as the first chart (the artboard size).

    I tried to:

    1 create a boundery around the Board graphic with 0 race and no fill, and then place the file but indesign ignores the empty box.

    2. fill the border area white around the artboard, the graph on a layer different illustrator, then off the layer of white box in indesign object layer options, but then the graphic element moved to the top.

    I hope this makes sense...

    Thank you

  • Save a PDF file cannot be modified, losing the file HAVE changed.

    It's great that illustrator can edit PDF files and it's great that Illustrator can record on a non editable PDF. But why, for the love of sanity, I would like to save a PDF file cannot be modified, but then have the original file, currently open HAVE disappear leaving only this little pointless PDF file? I STILL want the file HAVE to remain the main current job file original. But it doesn't work.

    Or if, for some reason I can't understand, this behavior is necessary, and right, then at least it should show unequivocally that I am to modify a PDF file cannot be modified and strongly suggest to me that I might want to save an editable PDF or HAVE a file, or even do it automatically until I close the file (or Illustrator crashes as it is wont to do).

    I'm working on a file HAVE and I need to save a small file of WIP not editable for the customer display. I go to file - save as-> PDF / smaller file size / uncheck "preserve Illustrator editing capabilities". I send the PDF file to the client and continue to work and save, assuming that I'm working on the original. The file looks and behaves exactly as it did until I taped that, intuitively, I guess that is the file HAVE same, original, with the PDF file in a copy. However, when I come back the next morning, after having closed the file, only the low resolution not editable PDF file remains. The file doesn't help, and I have to redo all the work all the way back to the last time, I saved the file I saved the PDF.

    Much trouble, loss of hair, the time wasted, face Palm trees, etc.

    The thing is, I now /know/ does and I'm going out of my way to avoid it happening, but in the race at the end of the work and send commands to the client and manage multiple versions of files, it still happens. Now clearly this is my fault, but heck, Illustrator could behave much more usefully in this regard!

    Well, I must be missing something, I guess.

    I asked how "save a copy...". "is the way lasts, and you replied that you were referring to not using Save a Copy... So I re - submit that by using Save a Copy is the solution to your original problem.

    • Work in Illustrator; number of objects; several layers, live effects, etc.
    • Want a copy of WIP for the customer as you have described originally...
    • Choose file > save a copy... Format is not question could make no editable PDF, raster format, whatever...
    • Continue to work in Illustrator... under a State record which is absolutely no different than if I had never done the Save a Copy... There is no "silent dump' edit-ability or any such similar event. If I record, I save it HAVE original, or a new if the State was not saved.
  • Cannot open any programs, I think that somehow the files have been changed to .lnk files

  • Cannot preview filetype please download the file for display and garbled text on an uploaded image

    Dear Madam or Sir,

    PS I tried to join the two files (.pdf) but informs me that "image type is not allowed. Please notify.

    Hi Ron,

    In your efforts, you mention in step #6 you save the file as a PDF secure. Applied security files cannot be previewed to the customer, that's why you get the message "cannot preview filetype please download the file for display. This message preview complete and preview the hover. After downloading the file, you should be able to access it without error (within the limits of the guarantee applied).

    The hover behavior you report is expected. If you hover over a file name, you will see "hover" noticed after a few seconds, that will get you a small preview of the file (rather than having to open it in the overview). If poster only if you hover over a name of file, not in the empty area of each line, so that you have not seen continually arise.

    Hope this helps,

  • The files HAVE as links within a file, indesign to then be a pdf file, problematic?

    I want to know if the files have linked to an indesign file, which must then be PDFed for the printer, problem somehow. I was always asked by my printer to have all my images within a PDF, CMYK value and saved in tiff format.

    It seems that they should not be a problem, and that by converting the format tiff s i just lose in detail and it being a chore, as I have over 150 images.

    Am I wrong?

    art of John Johnson says:

    What is a manual operation? where in illustrator I convert individually these or make me an option within indesign to do this to all the links of the eps?

    You can record an action to save as .ai and close the file, then run that in the form of lots on a folder of files. But I do not convert batch if I am preflighting. When I control upstream I open all the files, look for problems and potential problems, sync (if any) color, perform the action to remove unused items from the Panel, then save as a new file. I have always save as .ai with PDF compatibility and, if possible, check that all images are linked not shipped.

    Read my file for a file sizes have 370 Ko or there abouts, looks small (although we're talking here of line, maps, etc).

    But I can read is inside my document setup, under 'Transparency' my balance pixelation/vectorization is 75 (in the direction of vector), my resolution for line art & text is 300ppi, gradient and mesh is 150ppi. don't know if I'm just throwing numbers at you, but that's what I got.

    Those are the values by default of the effects of rasterization resolution (for example effect > esthetics > Drop Shadow) and gradient meshes are pixelated when you print or save a PDF file. I usually set up a predefined custom flatterer who goes completely to 100% and does not plan type or convert lines to fills. These are used for priting and record in PDF format only. Your .ai file contains a PDF high resolution whose Illustrator unknown when editing but that InDesign and Photoshop use to import.

    The size of the file is irrelevant to the resolution of the built-in images. 370 KB is quite small, however, and when combined with your description of the content gives heavily to think there is no raster elements, so nothing to sweat. You can open the links Panel to see if there are images embedded or linked. I expect none.

  • cannot choose "Import" in the file menu - not highlighted

    try to import bookmarks from IE - on the file menu of Firefox choose "Import" is not highlighted and can not be selected - why? Maybe it's a mistake to base on my part from somewhere.

    Try their import via the bookmarks Organizer.

    1. From the menus, choose "Bookmarks", then on "organize bookmarks...". "to open the bookmarks Organizer (also known as the name of the library)
    2. In the library, select "Import and backup" then "Import HTML.

    This gives you the ability to import from Internet Explorer?

    If it isn't, export favorites in Internet Explorer to a HTML file, and then import the HTML file in Firefox. This process is described in the article importing Internet Explorer Favorites from another computer .

  • Cannot edit or import external data files in Excel

    Hello

    I use a monthly report in Excel that works fine in Windows but not Mac. It is a binary XLSB file that pulls in the 4 files external .txt from various places on the web to load the most recent data in the report. If I open the file in Windows, it asks if I want to allow data and when I click Yes, it downloads data from each txt file, does some calculations and is all ready. In the Mac it is said that it cannot find the files.

    So my first thought was to go to data > Connections and check the properties, mainly the url that it uses to pull in each file. However, in Excel for Mac (Office 365) 16 properties button is grayed out. This means also I can "save under" when comes a new month and change the URL to match the new month either. You can bring up a properties box, but it is very limited, with no option to change the url.

    I also tried in Excel 11, same problem. I do not want to Boot Camp and have to load Windows (and use up to 20 GB) just for a single file, but I need to use it. Any ideas?

  • Substitute the lack of rights of use error "cannot play, burn, or synchronize the file because that media rights are missing"

    I recorded my own music on several cd (using a computer with XP). I took these CDs and I snatched a few pieces in Win Media Player (on a more recent with Win 7 laptop) so I could do a "best of" disc type. I made 2 of them before. Now, I can't burn the same playlist titles to a 3rd cd because I get the message "can't read, burn, or synchronize the file because the media rights are missing." There is no right of media since I recorded this music and I have already burned 2 CDs of this same music on this same computer. Why they were so short?

    I downloaded the software updates. Could it be the problem?

    How can I replace this error message which is in error?

    Thank you.

    You cannot, if it is, the security protection would be worthless.  It would be like cracking after a password.  It's a shame, I know, but you will need to copy the files again without any protection applied.

  • Computer takes forever to load, the files have no icon

    Hello!

    Since yesterday, I have this problem: when I open computer, the green bar at the top starts to load, there are magnifiers on computer, libraries and Favorites in the left pane and nothing appears in the main pane of Solution Explorer. If I manually navigate to any folder by typing the address, it takes me to this folder, but there is no icons for the files or folders. Although, they open as expected, may be renamed etc., but right click on explore crashes. The desktop icons, menu start and see the control panel correctly.

    No recent program has been installed. Before this problem occurred I accessed a suspicious Web page (from a USB key), but...

    I scanned with Malwarebytes, Spybot, ESET, ran ChkDsk, sfc/scannow.

    They have all found nothing except the sfc found 2 corrupt files that could not be repaired.

    Important the fact is that in Safe Mode, I have the same problem!

    Can someone help me on this?

The problem occurred after installing Acronis True Image 2013, because I have disabled its services to run automatically.

    If you put the files and the folder structure in place then there is no need to restart and it should pick it up, if the structure is incorrect, so he will not pick it up, might be interesting to try an export of test on a different application or a system to get an idea of what files you need.
