That is where I am stuck.

I am in the Group menu of my logo in the 3D DVE. I can select only 1 shape at a time. And I don't see the Combine shapes menus anywhere in 3D DVE.

You'll have to multi-select the two shapes which make up the O, or P, or

OK, did that, have the element in 3d dve.

How do I make the insides of Os "empty". The help section talks about the graphics tool. And I am not seeing corresponding selections in 3d
dve.


Thanks,

Jef

Hi Folks,

Trying to do the same thing Mr. Skinner was. Import either an EPS or


an


.ai file into 3D DVE.  Getting error message:

"Cannot open EPS file."

The EPS file in question opens fine in Photoshop CS. Are there


versions


of EPS that DS cannot open?

Thanks,

Jef

And in the 3D DVE, you'll get shapes only, no color information. You


can


retain color when you import EPS into Graphics sessions.

Subject: Importing EPS

Hi all just wondering if somebody can clarify
something for me. I am creating some text and shapes
in Adobe Illustrator for import into the 3D DVE/Title
tool.  When I go into the 3D DVE mode and click
'Import EPS' I keep getting the following error;

"Cannot open EPS file or file contains no shapes."

Can somebody let me know how the file should be saved


from Illustrator (version, specs, etc.)?


Thanks,

Jeff
