Hello. I am starting a company and i have made all my designs in macromedia flash. My screen printer needs the logo in illustrator however. So i tried copy-paste ing the logo into illustrator and it looks pretty goot but it is like it pastes it into slices. you can see little horizontal gaps running across the entire logo. Its like illustrator breaks it up for you to make it more manageable or something.

Does anyone know how to get around this?

Thanks,
Chris
 
Export from Flash as Illustrator 6. All other conversions seem to expand the art which is the problem you speak of.
Also,
Flash will merge and cut overlaping shapes and send the data to Illustrator unless you either group each shape or place them on different layers. Could make spot color trapping difficult for your printer unless you do this. Shouldn't be too hard to set up though.
