I have a problem with opening a psd file in illustrator.

 

This is the file I want to open in illustrator

 

and it says it's not readable.

 

I got back to photoshop and deleted yellow parts,

 

Then I could open it in illustrator.

 

-I didn't use any spot color.

-Neither my co-workers could read my psd file on their illustrator. (Theirs opened just fine on mine)

-Tried to copy&paste in to a new documents, didn't work

-Tried same on my co-worker's computer, didn't work.

-Tried save as eps, didn't work.

 

This time yellow was the problem, but sometimes even white(#ffffff) do the same,

and more than two colors are problem in one documents.

It's really difficult and takes so much time to find which object is making trouble.

Especially when there are multiple objects.

 

I don't understand what's going on..

Need your help.

Thank you.

Hello

I have a few more questions.
-How did you find which layer's corrupt? I had to check layers one by one.
-Why does the layer corruption occur?

Thank you.


They helped this person but this doesn't help anyone else who is having the same issue. Do we all have to send our files Anubhav Majumder or what?
