X5 handles compressed files better than X4 yet is limited to CS versions prior to X5 beings released. Any CS versions after the release of X5 will NOT open a compressed file due to code being changed on Illy's end. Possible Service Packs have been updated to work with more current CS versions yet I know some still don't open. Adobe keeps changing parts of the code with every version and it seems Corel releases their latest version before Adobe does thus some things just not transferring between the two properly.
Adobe just needs to buy Corel and end this fiasco once and for all!Just kidding, of course.

Well, that worked with Freehand... or did it?Steve
You should be put in front of a firing squad Scott I was wondering how long it would take for one of those comments. lol Well I guess if that did happen I would have to find a new line of work.
That will never happen again. No more Corel for MAC. Illy has that market (mac) and the sales do not justify the cost to make it compatible.
With Illustrator for PC outselling Illustrator for Mac by a wide margin it is hard to predict the future of Illustrator for Mac......There was a suggestion on the Adobe forum a couple years back that Apple might have to partner with Adobe to keep it going....As a high % of Mac users, use Illustrator.....
