You need to list the undefined symbols if there's any chance of helping you further -- post the full error message. Presumably you're missing some other .cpp files from the SDK, there are a bunch of the pattern IAI*.cpp in the illustratorapi folder.

Maybe you should find a solution in the settings or ask the staff for help.

The SDK has some CPP files you need to include in your project if you use them -- have a look at the 'ate' sub-folder in the 'illustratorapi' folder.

Hi A.Patterson,

Thanks for the help!!!

I have added IText.cpp and Text.h files in source folder, but still I’m getting undefined symbol error.

Is there any steps I need to follow?
