Hi I've been working on making fliers in Adobe Illustrator, but the last time I was working it I accidentally reset my computer before or while saving. Since then I can't open it again. I get two errors:
1) Illustrator could partially read the file. We recovered as much as possible....(etc) 2) Acrobat PDF File Format is having difficulties. Expected a dict object.
I'm confused by this since I didn't do anything regarding making or importing a pdf..... is there any way to rescue my art and text for this corrupted file??
Thanks for reaching out. This generally means the PDF content/ structure of the file has gotten corrupted. Would you mind sharing the download link to the file here or via DM? I will try my best to recover it.
Certainly, I'd be happy to help. Please share the download link to your corrupted AI file here or via DM, and I will do my best to assist you in recovering it.
Please download the file and check its contents. While I was able to recover a significant portion of the file, there may still be some data missing or corrupted due to the initial issue. I recommend reviewing the file carefully and making any necessary adjustments or edits.
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you encounter any further issues or have additional questions. I'm here to assist you.
Thank you for reaching out for assistance. I've reviewed the file you shared via the Google Drive link. Unfortunately, it appears to be incomplete, lacking essential data that is causing the "Expected dict object" error. Typically, this error occurs when a file is not saved correctly or is incompletely downloaded or copied.
Recovering the file is challenging without the missing data. To prevent such issues in the future, ensure that you save your files carefully or save them as Cloud Document and verify that they are fully downloaded or transferred.
If you have any further questions or if there's anything else I can assist you with, please feel free to let me know.
I appriciate your prompt response. This issue happened yesterday while I was working on that file and my PC all of a sudden turned off. After turning on the PC, I wasn't able to open the file anymore. It showed the same issue again and again. Is there any way to get the file back? It was my 5 days work in here.
Hello Mr. @Anshul_Saini. I'd like to ask for your help to recover my AI file too. The link to the file I have sent to your inbox already. Thanks for your help!
Thanks for reaching out. I've replied to your direct message with the link to the recovered Illustrator file. Please check your inbox, and let me know if you need any further assistance.
I appreciate you reaching out for assistance. I've examined the file you provided via the Google Drive link. I regret to inform you that the file appears to be incomplete or corrupted. It's missing essential data, which seems to be causing the "Expected dict object" error. This typically happens when a file wasn't saved properly or was incompletely downloaded or copied.
In this case, without the missing data, it is challenging to recover the file. To avoid such issues in the future, make sure to save your files carefully and ensure that they are fully downloaded or transferred.
If you have any further questions or if there's anything else I can assist you with, please feel free to let me know.
I'm Facing the same issue. I've saved the file last night and am not able to open it today to continue my work. Could you kindly help me as well with the issue.
I've managed to recover your file. You can access it through this link: [https://adobe.ly/3T9JXS4].
If you encounter any errors while trying to open the file, try ignoring the link initially. Let the file open first, and then either relink or replace the link again. This should resolve any issues you're facing.
I'd be happy to help you with the file. However, the link you provided seems to be locked, preventing me from accessing it. Could you please provide a public link or ensure that the file is accessible so that I can assist you in fixing it?
Once you've made the file accessible, feel free to share the link here, and I'll do my best to resolve the issue for you. Let me know if you need any further assistance or have any questions.
