Can not import EPS jobs into Flexi

[Peconic Sign Company]

I am a Mac used running 7.1. Has anyone had a situation like this...... Also has anyone upgraded to flexi 8 for Mac... If so how is it performing?

Whether PC or Mac you will encounter a growing number of EPS files from clients that are a later version than your software can open. If this is an issue for you, then the lowest cost in-house solution probably would be to purchase a current copy of Adobe Illustrator so you can open and save back to a legacy version that your Flexi can open.

Fred's on it. Try opening in Illustrator and saving as Ill. Legacy v8.

Here's another tip if you want to make it easier on them: Make sure to convert any strokes to outlines prior to exporting (object>path>outline strokes.) Strokes created in Illy always seem to get jumbled when imported into Flexi.
