A quick note to say thanks to everyone who suggested work arounds for the
Mapinfo to illustrator problems.
As many of you had guessed, I'd been down the ghostscript route (I have no
budget for AI plugins), but in the end I resolved my problem by going for the
good old save window as routine (and I thought I had given that up years
ago!!).
anyway, now the deadline and trauma are passed I've had a little rummage and
its those pesky trutype fonts again ....no fancy fonts..no problem .......maps
appear to go straight into illustrator via more drivers than you could shake a
stick at. I have to say I am alittle surprised that MI symbols are so awkward,
but I am even more surprised that acrobat reader could read my ghostscript
derived PDFs ok but illustrator couldnt...not so portable methinks/
anyway, thanks
