Hi Rob and Lisa,

I have tried using an eps from Illustrator. However, the problem is that the only element in my eps is a line at 50% screen of black with a 0.5 stoke. Although the graphic is composing with the final PDF I'm having difficulty getting it to plate. When I look in the FusionPro User Guide documentation it says that when using an EPS for variable graphics it must be larger than 1 inch X 1 inch. My line is longer than 1 inch in width, but the because the stroke is 0.5 the height of the EPS is not 1 inch. I was wondering if a pdf would solve the problem. But Illustrator will not allow me to create my document size equivalent to the line because it says the document size is to small. When I make the pdf as is I get white page area around the line so that I can no longer overlay the variable graphics in FuionPro.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Hi Nicola,

I always use EPS files and have never had a problem.  Illustrator EPS files
will maintain the transparency.
