No. You can add to the artwork, but you cannot edit vector graphics in raster graphics oriented programs (like Photoshop) unless you created the original file in Photoshop. This is because Photoshop does have some limited vector capabilities, but that only means you can create text on a path, simple vector shapes, etc. You cannot, for example, bring in a logo created in Illustrator or Freehand and expect to tweak it in Photoshop. You can put design elements on top and around it, but you can't change the basic image. Hope that helps.

Can a logo created in Corel Draw or Adobe Illustrator be saved in a format that allows it to be edited in Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro (just simple editing like changing the color of a shape)
Thank you.

my dilemma is that I had someone create a logo for me in Illustrator but I need to make some changes to it--changes in scale and color to already created elements. Is there any way for me to do this without buying Adobe Illustrator?
Thanks.

a. Ask them to do it?
b. I think Photoshop can open EPS files - you'll be prompted for the resolution and size you want, and it will be rendered as a raster image. You can then edit that image, but you can't save it as a vector image again.

b.) Will there still be individual elements in the EPS file that I open in PhotoShop? I have access to PhotoShop (not on my PC though) but I do have JASC Paint Shop Pro 7.

Here's a list of some other vector based programs. I don't know which ones open Illustrator files or not because I don't own any of them... I work in Illustrator and Freehand. If none of those programs work out for you, the Academic Superstore has Illustrator CS for 95 bucks. Can't beat that!
