I didn't see this until I had the problem and started searching my
archives. So, I thought I'd revive it to see if anyone had any new
input (has it been recognized as a bug?), and to tell you it hit me
in a different situation.
I didn't see it until trying to work with files that had been saved
from CS as .eps. It didn't work to try to save them AS eps again. If
I just said "save", it saved them as .ai files just fine.
This didn't show up working with files saved by previous versions.
Turned out they had been getting [converted] appended to the name.
When I found that that was making names too long, I started removing
the " [converted]" from the name, and that seemed to keep them from
having a 'save as ' problem. so, I was leaning toward thinking that
something about changing the name was bypassing the bug. (in the
previous paragraph's example, the name was changing from .eps to
.ai). this seems to be the opposite of what is being said below in
the examples. so, now I'm really confused.
beyond that, any word on a cure in the works?
in a missive of 12/8/03, email@hidden was seen to expound:

Just for the record, I can reproduce this problem. It only seems to
happen if you change an existing filename as part of the save. For
example;
1) If you open a new document and save it as 'temp.ai', then that's fine.
2) If you open a document called 'temp.ai' then save it as
'temp.ai', that's also fine.
3) If you open a document which is NOT called 'temp.ai' and save it
as 'temp.ai' then you get the error Simon describes.
I assume this is a problem with Illustrator CS. Anyone have any
other suggestions or ideas?
