QUESTION: when i choose edit original command in the illustrator-CS3 the image not open in the photoshop, how is possible?

ANSWER: Hi Biju,

The photo is embedded in Illustrator and not linked. When you place images in Illustrator (File>Place) be sure to keep the link original box checked. This will allow you to edit live in PS from AI.


Thanks

QUESTION: Sir,
In Illustrator ver. 10, when i choose edit orginal command a message displayed "cannot find associated application"


Answer
Hi Bjiu,

This is because you have not saved your document from Photoshop, you have just placed a file you downloaded without associating it with an application. You will need to open and resave as a .psd (photoshop document) in order to use this more effectively.
