Yea...with text you have to convert the fonts to shapes. If I remember correctly... you just right click on the word and convert to shape.
Yeah I understand that, but there is no text in those last two illustrations. Or does it some how read it as text because of the shapes?
it shouldn't do. Make sure that the embed fonts box is unticked when you export the eps in case this is the problem.
When I get my computer up and running and reinstall everything I'll try resaving the them at EPS 10 and make sure I have the embed font's box unchecked and see if they fly that way. If they do then I'll know what the problem was.
