Yesterday's show at the theatre was fucking amazing.
If you ever have the chance to see it, go for it.
http://www.nationaltheatre.org.u…And yeah, horp, you were right about the pant thing. But being applied to everyone, and being there loads of pretty girls was definitely worth of it.

What Pebble Mill cunt are you referring to Skt?

see if you're in illustrator right? and you've spent all day doing an A3 ad for a magazine right? and you've saved it as a PDF and forgotten to that you were working in a pdf right? and then just to be 100% sure that when it goes it'll work right you turn off the "keep editable" tab, right? then you close it without saving as an ai again right?
is there any way you can rescue that file so that it's workable again?
why does Illy let you work in pdf mode without at least auto saving an ai file? why does it not account for disorganised creative genius types like me who forget things? why does it not compensate for the necessarily sketchy creative workflow?

Kelps it should... should open up to you again as an editable illustrator file, unless I'm misunderstanding something.
Is all you have left now, an acrobat.pdf file not an illustrator file anywhere at all?
- kelpie0
its open-able, but everything is split apart weirdly and grouped together and when I select and ungroup strange things happen to various parts of it.
Its content heavy and pretty complex too. This isn't hugely important, just would be nice to have an editable version I could strip half the content off and redo for my portfolio really ;)
- Hahaha, well I reckon you have to go the long way round now then you daft panty girdle.Horp

Yeah Illy tends to do that when you open up pdfs to edit. The text gets broken apart and you get letters here an there that aren't part of a word. Very annoying, but as Spooky says you probably have to go the long way round.
- I think its anywhere where you've tracked or kerned, it splits the text path up.Could be wrong but I FUCKING DOUBT IT PAL.Horp
- IT PAL.Horp
- aye, I figured as much, long shotkelpie
- IT PAL?ian
- sounds about right that horpkelpie

- IT PAL!
This is my new phrase, I have yet to give it meaning, but when I do... * shakes fist.ian - not as mohawk superfine as "mohawk superfine"kelpie
- I prefer Mohair Supersmooth if I'm totally honest with you about it, and I do like to be honest whenever possible.Horp

Short answer: no
Long answer: not really but it will take you time to restore the file, because it's basically the same thing as saving a jpg from a psd file.You have to split all the stuff in layers (again) and IF you are lucky the text will be not into illogical bits.
But at least clipping masks will be in their place.
Not sure about swatches, gradients (hope you didn't flat the transparencies)
And prolly you'll have to relink external files (if any)

If that Forbes bloke is right, his boss is a damn site more than a decent bloke... he called him a clueless dickwad and a cunt and god knows what else.
If I was his boss and I'd read that, he'd only be on the payroll until I'd sharpened my dog's teeth.

ah, just re-read it! hahahaha, I can just imagine the sinking feeling he got after realising his boss had gotten that email.

Coca Cola is now officially using Apex New instead of DIN..
Thought it was a joke when I got the mail. Apex is alright for annual report etc. but as the Coke main typeface it's far from good enough.Coke Cunts

A large worldwide consumer electronic brand is using ITC avant garde as their main font europe-wide. Such typeface doesn't have all the east european, cyrillic and greek variations. Daft isn't it?

well spare a thought for designers who have to account for the welsh language; virtually no typefaces include a particular character it features.
I have had to draw this new character for the meta typeface in the past. This was a cunt of a job. Damn you Spiekerman
- Spiekerman invented Welsh?Horp
- You should tell FontFont and get paid for it.
Btw, welsh is featured in the unicode spec table?Fariska - he is a direct descendant of King Arthur, the taffy cuntkelpie
- it was just a funny accent to be honest.kelpie
- That's the welsh for you. Just a funny accent, nothing more.Horp
