NaeKid Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I was sent an Adobe Illustrator file (.ai) that a customer wants me to cut for them. I need to open it and see what I can do with it. I don't even have a viewer for it (yet). I can't seem to import it directly into AutoCAD .. so .. can someone recommend a good converter that will take the .ai file and turn it into a basic .dxf file? I tried to search, but, didn't see what I was looking for .. Final option is to ask the customer to use their Adobe Illustrator and do a SaveAs to .dxf .. but, I would rather not have to do that.

I would download the trial software and save as dxf yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaeKid Posted October 21, 2008 Author Share Posted October 21, 2008 I did some alternative searches on my problem on here, and, it looks like someone had a similar issue as discussed: http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?t=22148 Looks like I will have to get the customer to do the conversion for me ..
