Can Mac Adobe Illustrator read in a Microsoft PowerPoint with fonts?

Efficiency at last! it's not efficient at all. Notice that you just *guess* nospam, and you guessed wrong. Again. I only speak fact which any sentient adult can easily verify. The efficiency is tremendous - but - as you are aware - you can't get this functionality on the Mac. The efficiency is only available on Windows. 0. Only one person has to deal with fonts, and that's the creator of the Windows MS Office document, a screenshot of which is produced here. http://i.cubeupload.com/pK8NQE.gif *Template Creator* 1. That one template is mailed to a score of neighbors, all of whom are on Windows, none of whom have to deal with installing fonts. All they need to do is use the embedded font functionality (not available on the Mac) where they're instructed to modify anything they want except the bottom line and the outside border. Notice that the score of users doesn't have any learning curve whatsoever, and they can still collaborate (as long as they're not on the Mac) perfectly efficiently. *Many People* 2. They each mail an assembler (who happens to be me but it could just as well have been the original creator) the updates, who assembles them into a single PPT file with embedded fonts, and then who saves them as a PDF (since Adobe Illustrator can't read PowerPoint files), where the assembler hands the shop the final layout. *Print Shop* 3. The shop reads in the PDF into Mac Adobe Illustrator, substitutes the default font to the Roadgeek 2005 Series B font, and voila, the layout is perfect inside of AI, where it can then be printed to the Vinyl Cutter using a cut extension in Adobe Illustrator. How can any sentient adult object to this tremendous efficiency? Only you object to the efficiency. Why? I don't know why. I suspect your objections to efficiency could be as simple as you know *the Mac doesn't have this collaborative functionality* |

So too is 'Adobe illustrator'. My statement was concerned with the use/misuse of the English language. you are pirating it. Not necessarily. yes necessarily. Even if he already has a license? he doesn't and you know it. I've ploughed through much of his junk and found nothing to suggest that he has a copy of Illustrator, let alone that he has pirated it. As far as I can tell the discussion is in the general case, in which case neither the presence or absence of a license can be assumed. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

If you're downloading the tweaked versions from Adobe without actually owning a licence, then yes, you are pirating it. The instructions on Aodbe's download page specifically say you have to already own a licence. That was more or less my point. While piracy was probable it is not necessarily piracy in every case. In saying "you are pirating it" nospam had jumped to a conclusion which was not necessarily correct. nope. i explained that. the reality is that 'ultred' doesn't have a license and is pirating it. Is he even using it? -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

I've ploughed through much of his junk and found nothing to suggest that he has a copy of Illustrator, exactly the point. let alone that he has pirated it. since it's clear that he never bought cs2, downloading it is pirating it. he also has admitted to pirating a wide variety of other stuff, so this is not any sort of surprise. As far as I can tell the discussion is in the general case, in which case neither the presence or absence of a license can be assumed. assumed is the wrong word. no assumptions are necessary. based on what he's written in this thread and countless others, it's *quite* clear what he's doing. |

Is he even using it? he claims to have used it, however, that's irrelevant. since he never bought it in the first place, he is not entitled to legally download it. |

Is he even using it? The post says that he is creating the sign in Powerpoint and that it needs to read by Illustrator in the Mac. I need to dig out my copy of Illustrator which I bought many years ago at a previous job. I probably used it twice, but I needed to have it for a specific task. It probably won't even work with WIndows 10. There are some programs that I've found hard to believe they are still being used. Corel Draw is the format that many laser cutters require. |
