    Hiya guys,

    I'm in a wee bit of a pickle and I hope someone here can help me. Does anyone know of a tool that'll convert .cdr (vector graphic) file into .ai? I can't tell you which version of CorelDraw it's created in, only I can't open it and it's dated 2007, however some other versions of CorelDraw import fine!! So I'm at a lost.

    FYI: I'm using Illustrator CS5 and it's just giving me a pop-up box telling it can't open the file! Annoying. :(

    This looks interesting ... I sometimes have this issue, but haven't found a solution.

    I can't figure out how to use it ... any advice?

    Cheers

    UniConverter is a command line tool. There is no graphical version or frontend for the app, but one could probably setup an AppleScript or Automator process for it.

    Have a look at this link On-line File Converter or anything from this Google search page.

    I seem to recall this issue coming up a while ago, and an on-line service was the answer.
