Default Re: Help! Disagreement w/ my designer

We found a couple of years ago that an Illustrator file saved as a .pdf will be viewable with Adobe Reader, or any .pdf reader. However, if you open it in Illustrator, it opens as a native file, still using filename.pdf, but it's completely editable. Someone else mentioned about the layers in a Photoshop file staying intact, so just try opening it in Photoshop, but I haven't had that work for me yet; it usually asks me if I want to rasterize it, which, if you do that, you can then save it as the tiff you want. However, the tiff is not easily editable, as mentioned above. (Try opening it in Illustrator too, if you have it. Can't hurt.)
