problem importing EPS files

I´m just prior to ordering the font creator full version, but before doin this, I need to solve the problems I have with importing EPS files.

I have several signs designed in Illustrator (Easy ones, just a triangle with some numbers included etc.)

When importing the files into font creator, the surfaces get filled, I loose all contours…

Can someone support me how to import the files? Step by step would be fine, as I´m completely new in font creator! :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

pls find some screen shots enclosed…

We need an EPS file to test this, but it may be easy to fix with the Glyph Validation Toolbar, by correcting contour directions.

This PDF didn’t import correctly either, so I suspect there is a problem.

I’ve never used a pdf image as input as generally a pdf contains multiple images which have to be cut down in size. Seemingly, the direct load of the pdf treated the outside, rounded shape as background which apparently goes away with import. That’s why your FC test showed the squared off triangle shape.

So using this thought I created a jpg image (from Snagit) of the triangle

When imported that jpg worked fine.

This should do the trick:
In Adobe Illustrator, select all objects, then from the main menu select Object → Path → Outline Stroke.
