Need a catalogue converted to illustrator!

Need a catalogue converted to illustrator!

Postby j0anne04 on Wed Jan 24, 2007 9:58 am

Hi, i designed a brochure in a small publishing program for home users called Print Master Pro. I did this as it was easy to organise double sided pages, the margins etc were all set for me and at the time i only planned on printing the brochure on my home inkjet. Well the time has come where i need them mass-produced and want to transfer them in to illustrator to send to a printer.

It is a 12 page brochure (A4 - 6pages that when folded vertically it becomes an A5 brochure with 12 pages) all in full colour and double sided. The middle page is just a copy of the pricelist which i can easily add myself and does not need to be done in illustrator, bringing it down to a 10pg booklet.

I haven't got the time to completely remake the brochure, and if i copy and paste the graphics from each page in PrintMaster to Illustrator it turns the text into graphics thus making it unfocused and uneditable. Does anybody have any suggestions, or is there anybody willing to do the transformation for me if i provide the catalogue, the software for printmaster, and pay them for their time??

Any recommendations are appreciated.

Regards, Joanne

Tried exporting to pdf from the original software? if you have acrobat you could also try printing to it (or distiller). then open the pdf in illustrator. worth a try
