Does anyone know of an inexpensive or free utility to convert AI files to something like CPS, CCX, or JPG? I don't have access to Adobe Illustrator and my Corel Photo House doesn't read AI files. (I have an older copy of Corel Draw 4, but it barfs about halfway through importing the file.)
Thanks!

Send it to me and I'll return it as a JPG, PDF, or EPS. :)
I'm not aware of any utilities.

Sometimes Paintshop Pro will convert a AI file to JPG, but even if it does convert then sometimes weird things happen with the colors.
You can see and print some AI files with Adobe PDF reader (at least you can check if the colors did come out right that way).

Wow...I never would have thought to try Acrobat Reader! It reads the file just fine, but lops it off to fit on one page. The reader doesn't seem to let you change the paper size, but I may need to look a little harder at the page setup options.
Pixelhugger -- thanks for the offer. Nannuu is converting it for me.
I'm sure this topic comes up from time-to-time. If we can identify some freeware tool, it would probably be useful to post it in the downloads area or tips area.

Mahuti nailed it if you're a Mac user. Graphic Converter can handle everything. Too bad there's no Windows version.
