JevoUK Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 When exporting a file From AD as a PDF and opening it in illustrator, the layer structure is not preserved, even if the Include Layers option is ticked. Is there any way of preserving the layer structure of the file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The layers are correcly created in PDF but they are not used in Illustrator (at least CS6). Not even when creating the PDF from InDesign (again, CS6). I don't use In Design so can't comment on that, it would be helpful if the layers where preserved when opened in Illustrator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Lee D Posted January 24, 2020 Staff Share Posted January 24, 2020 This has been raised before and the issue may be with how AI is handling the layers within a PDF file, see this thread for more information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
