Importing images
A number of file types can be imported into FreeHand, but once
imported, all are treated as EPS images, TIFF images, or editable
paths. For details, see your FreeHand documentation.
When you import an EPS image into a document, FreeHand
inserts a link to the image rather than embedding the original file,
resulting in a smaller file size. If the image is a CMYK EPS file, the
colors print just as they would from the originating application.
Note:
Before placing a CMYK EPS file, be sure the file was saved
with Desktop Color Separation (
) set to Off. If the file was
saved with DCS activated, FreeHand prints composites of the
image at the low resolution used for screen viewing.
All RGB images placed in a document are affected by your RGB
Source and Rendering Style settings in the PPD. For best results
with placed images, follow the instructions in
Saving files for importing into other documents
When saving files in FreeHand for importing into other types of
documents, use the EPS file format. FreeHand saves all color
information in CMYK. The RGB Source and Rendering Style print
options have no effect on the color output of RGB artwork saved in
FreeHand and imported into other types of documents. In the
case of FreeHand files imported into Photoshop, however, vector
data from the FreeHand file is rasterized into bitmaps in
Photoshop, and the final color space of the bitmap data is
determined by the color mode you set in Photoshop.
