Question

Illustrator 2020 paste to photoshop problem

I am having problems copying and pasting from Illustrator 2020 to Photoshop, when there is artwork that has a clipping path masking elements in Illustrator, this is ignored when pasted into Photoshop, and the elements aren't masked. I never had this problem using Illustrator CC 2017. Is there a known fix?

What versions of adobe & OS are you using?

 

If you paste back into Ilustrator, does the result look good there, this will confirm your clipboard is adding the items correctly.

 

Check your clipboard settings.

Then restart your computer, to flush out any corruption and try again.

Thanks, seems like a temp glitch - quit out of Illustrator 2020, and relaunched, and copy and paste worked fine again.

Definite Glitch - I am having to quit Illustrator 2020 and restart it every time I want to paste artwork with a clipping mask into Photoshop. As soon as I do it once, things mess up and when I do it again the problem happens.
