    Default MAC OS X copy vector artwork into Photoshop as paths...


    <FONT FACE="Verdana"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Hi, <BR>
    <BR>
    I know that to copy vector artwork from Illustrator CS into Photoshop CS as paths you have to <BR>
    hold down Command (Mac*OS), and drag the selection to the Photoshop document.<BR>
    But for me it doesn’t work (it is a bitmap). Do you have a solution?? My system is Panther...<BR>
    <BR>
    Thanks in advance.</SPAN></FONT>

    In order to drag vector artwork from Illustrator to Photoshop (or to InDesign), you have to change Illustrator's default Clipboard format. Choose Illustrator > Preferences > File Handling & Clipboard. Check the AICB option (unchecked by default). Now it should work.

    Illustrator's default Clipboard format is PDF, but Photoshop and InDesign need AICB (Adobe Illustrator Clipboard format).
