Bom Dia. Estou a tentar registar um programa antigo (FreeHand) mas o link que me foi indicado pelo bate-papo (Erro “Não foi possível ativar” em produtos Macromedia de legado ) não foi suficiente para poder ultrapassar esta questão. O nº de série não tem os actuais 24 dígitos necessários. Como posso registar o programa? Obrigada.

Vista problems - palette fonts & KDS
It is said that Windows mimic Mac. True because Vista has now the same
backward compatibility as OSX. FreeHandMX runs quite well but the layer
palette use ridiculously large fonts and KDS color management do not work
(all cyan & magenta).
I would appreciate it if someone has a fix for the problem although I use
Illustrator now - just edit some old files with FreeHand sometimes.

FreeHand Replacement
I've decided there really isn't one! I tried CanvasX (Mac)
and it crashed 3
times in 5 minutes. I could not get the keyboard shortcuts for zooming to
work and a few other things were broken. I wrote to their support and got no
response. Then I find out that it's an orphaned program.
Then I tried Inkscape (Mac). It can't import EPS formatted files, and the
X11 operating system is too funky for my taste.
Illustrator lacks all of the features that I find so useful in FH. I had
hoped that Adobe would have incorporated some of FH's features in CS3, but
that is not the case.
That leaves me using my old friend FH until Adobe adds my favorite FH
features to AI. I sure hope FH runs in Mac OSX 10.5. If it doesn't, then
I'll be sticking with OSX 10.4.9 for a while, or dedicating one computer to
run FH.

The right way to do it, IMO
I understand Adobe purchase Macromedia. When I hear that, I
knew FreeHand was doomed. There hasn't been an update to MX in so
long and there are so many bugs popping up since Tiger was
released.
As a company, the right way to do in, IMO, is to continue with both FreeHand and Illustrator and making them closer together until you merge the 2. There are too many differences between Illustrator and FreeHand to make it comfortable for me to switch. I don't have time to relearn the feel of Illustrator to draw with smoothness. It just feels wrong. But if they were to continue FreeHand and change the feel over lets say 2 - 3 upgrades, then merge, there would be a far greater response. But of course, does the cost of doing this justify the customer base, only Adobe knows this.
I dislike Illustrator so much that I am considering purchasing a PC and running CorelDrawX3, and I'm a Mac guy!
Just venting.......

Illustrator Gradients to Freehand
What's the best way to convert an Illustrator CS2 gradient to
Freehand MX? I've tried various methods, but a multicoloured
gradient like a gold or chrome always seems to split into sections
with 2-colour blends in each. Is there a way to get it to convert
as one long gradient, or a way to rejoin the sections into one
gradient in Freehand?
Thanks for any help in advance.

How do I Get Freehand to open links in new folder?
I have collected a Freehand file and all its links in a new folder. At present its links are in multiple folders and it opens these automatically. I want to open the Freehand file so it links to the files only in the collected folder. How do I do this?

★ Best way to get FreeHand files into Illustrator CC.
On the FreeHand Design Facebook page, some tests were run converting FreeHand files over to Illustrator CC. These results may help you with what conversion method to use:
Using gradations and text, here's what happened when exporting from FreeHand in different formats:
1) Exporting a FH file to Illustrator 7 format will have editable text on a path but the type will shift position. Gradients will breakup into bands with noticeable borders. Blends work the best.
2) Exporting a FH file to PDF and opening into AI will have smooth Gradients and Blends, but text will breakup to individual letters and the text path is deleted. PDF's work best if there is no text in your FreeHand file.
3) Using native FH file and opening with Tensai AI Plugin in Illustrator will have accurate gradations and blends. However, text brackets on the path are collapsed on import. Expand the brackets and your editable text will appear.
If you have a FreeHand file with no text, create a PDF and open in the latest AI. If you have text, use the plugin.
When exporting TRANSPARENCY effects from FreeHand to Illustrator in different formats: (see below)
1) Original FreeHand file with Lens effect and transparency. This is how it looks in FHMX:
2) Exporting the FreeHand file to PDF and opening the PDF in Illustrator will divide the transparent sections into blocks. It also removes all actual transparency and 0% areas revert to the white background.
3) Using native FH file and opening with Tensai AI Plugins in Illustrator will keep the transparent effect intact. You can move the elements around and still have transparency.
4) Exporting a FH file to Illustrator 7 will will not work at all; it deletes the overlapping elements. (no image shown)
Bottom line is if you have one or two FH files to convert over to Illustrator, exporting your file to PDF works in most cases. If you have more complex files, or a large number of files, get the Tensai AI Plugin
Hope these examples help.

FREEHAND DISASTERS
Hi There,
Please could someone help me with this freehand MX problem. Its happened twice now and it's never happened to me before. I have worked for about 6 hours on this one job. I Collected for output, I know I saved it properly. I went out for a lunch break. When I came back to my computer I sat down to work again and tried to open the file it said "Could not complete your request because file not a valid FreeHand document." Yet I have been able to open it before and it IS a valid freehand document.
Do you know what's going on? Has this ever happened to you before.
I really need to recover the files. I really don't have time to redo the job.
Do you know what to do? This can't keep happening to me, I need to solve the problem somehow. I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else before and if they know what the problem could be and how to fix it.
I would really appreciate your help.
Nick

Overprint: no more
Here's what used to work:
overprinting objects -> save to postscript -> open postscript in preview -> save as pdf-x -> done: 100% yellow printed over 100% magenta resulted in a nice bright red. It's OS X 10.4.7, Freehand MX 11.0.2 Build 92, PDF Printer 4.0, PPD File Version 1.0
It isn't like this anymore and I don't understand why. Ps and pdfs ignore overprint. The only way to get it to work is to export to eps and render in Photoshop. I thought I might have done something bad to my system and installed a new system on another disk but the result resembles those from the old system.
Any advice is appreciated.

Missing Fonts
I'm using FreeHand MX 11.0.2 on Windows XP Pro.
I'm trying to open a file that was created on another PC on our network containing Futura fonts, and I get a Missing Fonts message telling me that specified font is not installed on my computer, and it can substitute it with a different one. When I choose to replace this font with a different one, I scroll down the list, and I am able to find Futura font; however when I choose it, it looks different. We had this problem on the other PC at first, and we ware able to resolve it by copying all fonts from Control Panel into Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts folder. However, this trick did not work on my PC. We both have the same fonts, the same software versions, the same configuration, so there's no reason why it doesn't work the same way on both PCs. I tried copying this font from the other PC, and reinstalling FreeHand, but still wasn't able to get rid of the problem. FreeHand tech support could not help me either. Does anyone have an idea how to fix it? Please help!!!
