The biggest issue w/ CS is the fonts, which I’m thinking that is what you’re talkin about.
- You need to use export to save to an illustrator 10 file.
- You also need to embed your fonts as for some stupid reason Adobe didn’t check that compatability. To embed your select your fonts press cmd+o or ctrl+o. This will make the text uneditaable but it won’t slice it up like it seems to like to do.
As for your rgb issues, 2 things need to be done there too.
- You need to make sure the PS file is CMYK as well as the the AI file being CMYK.
- Something that PS does that’s funky is if you convert from RGB to CMYK it doesn’t always match up after the conversion. So say you have a black background in AI at 0, 0, 0, 100 and the background in PS is the same but in RGB, when you convert it sometimes it will change that 0, 0 , 0, 100 to like a 96, 63, 89, 100 etc. To fix this convert your PS image to CMYK w/o flattening it and then delete the black background and make a new one in CMYK w/ the correct values.
If it’s a printing problem w/ them matching up after that, if you have this option turn off spot printing.
Hope some of this helps. If you have any more issues you can send me the files and I’ll trouble shoot it for you.
