Whenever I copy my illustration and its layers it removes the transparency. Any ideas?

Thanks for the screenshot, sorry but still not exactly following what you are copying and if the left or right is the before or after.

In any case you may be setting your transparency at the layer level and not the object level. If you select the items on a layer by clicking on the radio button, and then apply a permanency effect it applies to the flyer.

If you do not have paste remembers layers on, then you will paste onto a selected layer and the transparency affect can be gone.

You also have have these 2 settings on. They could possibly cause this, but would need to knwo exactly who this was intended to be used and set up.

Might be easiest to post a sample using dropbox or similar.

No matter if "Paste remembers layers" is turned on, the transparency will be gone after pasting, because settings applied to main layers will always be gone after pasting in new document.

The screenshot suggests pasting into the same document, since I do not see multiple windows.

They seem to have an overabundance of layers, and the selected item shows 100% transparency, which leads me to make my guess over the other possibilities this could be.

In the same document?

If it is in another document, please check the color mode.
