Author Topic: Plug in to check raster art in Illustrator? (Read 3993 times)

Hi all!

I am selling vectors and photos at SS and Fotolia mostly. However sometimes my images (vectors) got rejected since they find raster arts. At the same time all other stockphoto sites does not. I use a plug in named "Graffix" to check raster objects. Sometimes even if i run the plug in and also check manually SS rejects it with the same reason. This makes me think if SS has another way to check raster arts, does somebody know any other useful plug in for Illustrator for this purpose? I would be grateful!

Yes this is the one i am using, apparently it does not detect all types of raster, or SS has a weird way to discover those!

I use Vector Inspector but I don't think its supported anymore. Regardless, all you need to do is look in your "Links" window. That will show any raster's.

I tried that, it shows nothing whatsoever but still it is raster in the image according to what SS say

That's strange hey! Can't say I have ever had that problem. What version are you saving to? EPS 8 or 10?

Just a thought. Have you tried closing the file and then opening it again, and checking? I have noticed that Links don't always appear initially but should do when the file is re-opened.

Had the same thing happen, there's a thread about it on SS where a few people had a load of "No Bitmaps" rejections.
Poorly trained inspector, all mine were overturned on resubmit. Just check your links pallet.

I had a problem with vectors approvals on SS since I bought CS5. When I opened saved files in script or text edit EPS10 looked like CS1 file and therefore they were rejected. I had to contact support several times - now they are approved without problems.
