RE: FLASH: More Illustrator + PhotoShop

[Vega, Eric]

Thanx for the insight on the auto crop.  That thought never crossed my mind.

The way you suggested I proceed worked perfectly with the exception that I

had to use a black fill in Illustrator or the graphic wouldn't move out on

the stage.


Thanx for the help.


Eric

Hey Eric,

The weird thing about exporting from illustrator to photoshop is that the

automatic crop goes right up to the nearest point in the illustrator

document (in other words, it auto crops) in doing this it sometimes creates

artifacting on the text which could be what you are seeing, you wouldn't be

able to see it in photoshop because it is so close to the edge of the

document.  A way to solve this is in Illustrator, create a box big enough to

enclose your work with a good amount of breathing space between the outer

edge of the box and the outer edge of your graphic.  On the box make the

fill empty and the stroke black, then export it out to a Photoshop format.

Then in Photoshop crop it down as close to your graphic as you want so you

eliminate the black box and still protect the anti-aliasing.  Try that out

and let me know how it goes! :)

Aaron
