Adobe Illustrator/Grey Box CS2

Question
There is a gray box around art I am receiving from a customer who is using Adobe Ill. CS2. I have Adobe Ill.10.-PC. How can she get rid of this gray box before e-mailing me the art or how can I get rid of it once I receive the art. Thank you so much!

Answer
Hi Jessica!

I'd need to see what that gray box looks like but I am going to guess that she uses some sort of transparency effects in her documents that isn't making the translation when she saves down to version 10 for you.

Can you take a picture of the screen when you open the document and send me a jpeg of what you are seeing?

Expertise

I can help troubleshoot your Illustrator 9 through CS3 (and most CS4) problems and suggest the best way to get the results you need. Although I can help with some installation issues, my forte is prepress and how to use the tools and functions in the application itself.

Experience

I've been a graphic artist for over 20 years. Oh my God, 20 years.
