(undocumented): a PDF-compatible `.ai` opens in Illustrator 2018 without its layers and groups (#868). Save As
|
||||
`.ai` › Version: Legacy (version 7) writes the PostScript form from the published version 7 specification
|
||||
instead, keeping layers (names, order, visibility, lock), groups, compound paths, clipping groups, gradients and
|
||||
images, one artboard per file (an artboard picker chooses which); transparency, type, live effects and object
|
||||
names don't survive it (transparent images are flattened or omitted). It waits for testing by users who hand
|
||||
files back.
|
||||
- **Evidence:** the issues above; 28 of the 350 issues are about `.ai`/EPS (about 22 people, the most common single
|
||||
format theme), 20 fixed, and the 8 open ones are about structure (layers, guides, speed, live objects), not missing
|
||||
art. No real-file `.ai` corpus (users' files may be used locally, never committed).
