Icon preview not working for occaisonal file

Jun 14, 2012 9:48 AM

Hi y'all.

 

I'm using Illustrator CS4 and there is a particular file that I cannot seem to save with an icon preview.


And yes, I've selected pdf compatibility, with no success.

 

Could it be that I'm resaving an old file that was originally created in Illustrator 10?  Could it be related to the use of many patterns?

 

Any other suggestions?

 

B.

    Have you tried doing a Save As and overwriting the original file?

    Check if the folder you are saving to may have Show icon preview turned off. That attribute is per folder

    Hello to both of you.  Sorry for the delay in response!

     

    Yes, I've tried doing a "save as" - even to different places on my hard drive.

     

    And yes to the other suggestion: my folder prefs do say show icon preview.

     

    Any other thoughts?  Could it have something to do with the patterns I've used?  Patterns can do weird things, I hear....
