This tool is able to restore corrupt Adobe Illustrator files.
Any data file gets corrupted because of, typically, viruses, software issues and other problems. Same can happen to Illustrator files too. When that happens, you can lose a lot of work. Re-doing the design is usually very painful; instead recovery of the file is an easier alternative. Recovery process usually includes an analysis phase. The way this tool is designed, it will be very easy for end users to get this phase started easily. It will not require any particular technical skill on the part of the user. The services offered is irrespective of the version of the Adobe Illustrator tool that generated the file. It will provide a view into recovered data and let the user decide if it is worth saving after the analysis phase. If the user agrees, a completely new file will be created for saving the recovered data. This way the original file is not touched.
When starting, you will need to specify the source file. The progress bars available tell you how exactly the recovery is progressing. Besides the analog progress, it tells you how many graphic elements in how many layers have been recovered. An output file path will have to be specified when actually saving the data. The data saving cannot be done in the trial version but the paid and registered version only. This too has a progress bar showing how’s the saving operation happening. What is most important through is the availability of logs. In case of problems, the event logs will provide clues to what caused a problem. This is a very good tool.
