placing illustrator images
One of my students was having an issue when placing a native AI file inside InDesign 21.0 that the graphics became distorted. His image was not very complex. He had a some columns and rows of circles that display and print in a totally different way then they are in the Illustrator file, and some white shapes he had on top of a solid color area disappeared. Everything is fine in Indesign when it is first placed, but if he goes back into Illustrator makes a change and then updates the modified link, that is when the change occurs. The only work around we found was saving the Illustrator file as an older version of Illustrator and then using that file in InDesign. I've never seen anything like this.
