Hi. As hlin said, It would be nice with a jpeg converter for CS too.
There is one thing I have to ask..
I recently made a picture in Illustrator CS where I had the measure of 12 cm lenght and 8 centimeters high. I exported the picture int jpeg but the picture got really huge. 10 times larger then the original 12*8 measurements. Did I do something wrong or does it have something to do with the Illustrator coverter ?

Would like to know if you can create a converter from Illustrator to PDF.
Using (if possible) any preset you decide and bitmapped.
Thanks

Have you ever created a workflow that could convert Macromedia FreeHand files into EPSs, or even better, into Adobe Illustrator docs? The newspaper where I work has a huge library of FreeHand docs, and with the Associated Press switching to Illustrator, it would make my life a lot easier to have a routine that could automatically batch-convert those files. Sound like fun?

Dear Sir,
I am working on Illustrator CS4. If i import file as jpg then the colorswhich are saved are very contrasting. And when I try to save from web and devices the file is so small that I cant even print it. If it prints its super pixelated. Please, Please, Please help me.
Thankyou Shweta Narang

Dear Ben: I downloaded your program “Illustrator to JPEG”, but I can’t get it to work. I tried restarting my mac, and I tried putting the folder inside the “Illustrator” folder, inside applications. Could you please tell me what to do to make your file work. Thank you, Michael

I need a batch converter from freehand to illustrator. The instructions by Adobe to convert them one by is not helpful when looking at a library of old files. Why can’t Adobe support this? Freehand used yo open illustrator files just fine..
