[File] - [Import...] command

This imports an Adobe Illustrator or image file, adding it to the file you're editing.
You can also import Dr. STIKA PLUS files.
You can use an imported image as the source for drawing cutting lines, for automatic extraction of contour lines, or for printing.
Running this command displays the [Import] dialog box.

TITLE Notes on files in Adobe Illustrator format

Files in AI or EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) format from Adobe Illustrator version 7 or 8 can be imported.
Character strings cannot be imported.
(Text converted to paths by outlining can be imported.)
Path width is ignored.
Unfilled paths of zero width are not imported.
The line-end shapes of paths are ignored.
The association configuration of path angles is ignored.

TITLE Notes on files in Dr. STIKA PLUS format

CutStudio and Dr. STIKA PLUS process text using slightly different methods.
This means that files are not completely compatible.
Shapes such as polygons and ellipses are reproduced, but in some cases the positioning and orientation of text cannot be reproduced.
To import data unaltered, use Dr. STIKA PLUS to convert text to polygons.
