I am trying to drop a shadow on a linked eps file. First, the object with a path out lining the object was saved as an eps file. THe eps file was then placed on the illustrator canvas. THe area that is within the path appears on the canvas without the background.
With the focus on the placed object, I drop a shadow....... Filters/Stylize/Drop Shadow. Sometimes a shadow is dropped and other times there is just a path outline the area where the shadow should be but no shadow. Can someone shed some light on the shadow problem so the shadow appears.
This is a link to an image of the computer screen.
