ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS2 

Adobe Illustrator can both open or place Photoshop files; you do not need to save or export your Photoshop image 
to a different file format. If you place an image into an open Illustrator file, you can incorporate the image as if it were 
any other element in the artwork, or you can maintain a link to the original file. Although you can’t edit a linked 
image within Illustrator, you can jump back to Photoshop, using the Edit Original command, to revise it. Once saved, 
any changes you make are reflected in the version in Illustrator. 

If the image file is open in Photoshop, save it as a Photoshop (PSD) file, and close the file. 

In Adobe Illustrator, do one of the following: 

To open the file directly in Illustrator, choose File > Open. Locate the image in the Open File dialog box, and 
click OK. 

To  incorporate the  image into an existing Illustrator  file, choose File  >  Place.  Locate  the file in the  Place dialog box,  
make sure the Link option is not selected, and click OK. 

To place the image into a file but maintain a link to the original, choose File > Place. In the Place dialog box, locate 
the file, select the Link option, and click OK. Illustrator centers the image in the open illustration. A red X through 
the image indicates it is linked and not editable. 

If  you opened or placed the  image without  linking, the  Photoshop Import dialog box  appears.  Choose  the appro­

priate option as follows, and click OK: 

Convert Photoshop Layers To Objects to convert the layers to Illustrator objects. This option preserves masks, 
blending modes, transparency, and (optionally) slices and image maps. However, it does not support Photoshop 
adjustment layers and layer effects. 

Flatten Photoshop Layers To A Single Image to merge all the layers into a single layer. This option preserves the 
look of the image, but you can no longer edit individual layers. 

You can use image clipping paths to define transparent areas in images you place in page-layout applications. 
In addition, Mac OS users can embed Photoshop images in many word-processor files. 

You may want to use only part of a Photoshop image when printing it or placing it in another application. For 
example, you may want to use a foreground object and exclude the background. An image clipping path lets you 
isolate the foreground object and make everything else transparent when the image is printed or placed in another 
application.
