Question

Corrupted File asking for Text Import Options

Hello, I currently have a project I've been working on for a little while now. Upon opening it up today Illustrator is telling me that I need to choose a text import option. When one is selected a blank artboard comes up. From what I can find online, this is a common issue with corrupt files. What I need to find out now is if there is any way I can repair the file maulally, since Illustrator's "Enable Content Recovery" is not working.

Hello @Landry2374278590gv,

 

We understand that encountering technical issues can be frustrating. Would you mind trying to open the file in Acrobat and resaving it as a PDF to check if it helps?

 

If the issue persists, chances are that the file is corrupted. Would you mind sharing the file here (https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/share-your-files-in-6-simple-steps/td-p/12967531) so we can check it on our end? Although we cannot guarantee a successful recovery, we will try our best to do so.

 

Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav

I'm pretty sure this is toast.

You back up daily, right?
