yguyvygvgyvgv schrieb: Great idea- "check your fonts" super helpful I checked, they're all there Thanks so much, you should work in customer service Most of the people here (including me) do not work for Adobe. We are just users as you are and try to help in our spare time. So thank you for your kind comments which encourage us to keep helping here. So just for you: what's the meaning of "checking your fonts"? Fonts are software and since they get read a lot by the system and the application software. They might get corrupted. Some fonts are even corrupted from the beginning, because they have been developed by people who don't know much about fonts. So when someone tells you to check your fonts, you want to get hold of a tool that can check if your fonts are all working OK and not corrupted. Illustrator is very prissy about fonts and will display errors of any kind when confronted with a font that's not OK. ... View more

Most probably the "Illustrator editability" is the only reason that your files get this big. But since you need them editable, you'll have to deal with it. Apart from that there will always be size differences when saving from different apps. Depending on what you need the files for, it might be wise to save an AI file for editing and a separate PDF file (without editability) for whatever purpose you need it. ... View more

Please talk in complete sentences. This is an international forum and many people who might have a solution for you rely on automatic translation. That usually produces gibberish when you feed it some short message jargon. Thank you. Your compouter looks like Windows 10. Illustrator CS5 is about 6 years old and might not be fully compatible anymore (we don't know for sure). It's only a 32 bit application, so won't be able to adress more than 3 GB of RAM. That means that, yes, file size is a problem. You say that you have "some" photo images. Depending on how large and how many there are, Illustrator CS5 might just not be able to render this. ...

As for the resolution setting: When exporting a file with plain old export function, what keeps you from selecting "custom" and then entering whatever you need? As for the CMYK->RGB conversion: That bug is known. As for the -01 addition to the file names: Happens when you "Use artboards" As for the "copy": Export for screens allows you to configure file names inside your file.
