Thick lines in Illustrator are wire thin in Flexi

[Texas_Signmaker]

I have a logo that has some thick lines that show up correctly in Illustrator, but when I import it into Flexi they are really thin.

Is there a way to retain the thickness when importing into flexi?

Expand the lines would be my guess. Won't be a line any more, but should retain thickness.

Expand them in Flexi? How is that done? I looked around for some way to thicken them up but couldn't figure it out

Create outlines in illustrator before exporting and sending into flexi

Sorry, was away for the weekend... yes, expand in Illustrator it what I meant. Turns lines into objects which should have the effect you managed to achieve

If you transfer as an eps they should keep their stroke width. You can always change the stroke on them in flexi, or expand before saving as mentioned.

thank you... I converted into shaped in Illy and opened that in Flexi and it worked.

And for the love of ****, don't EVER design a logo with strokes in it. They should always be expanded into paths.

In Illustrator convert Strokes to Outlines.

In Adobe Illustrator I almost always use the Path Offset tool to generate outline effects around source objects. It avoids the double inline/outline paths when expanding line strokes.
