Yes! We require any linked/placed artwork to be imbedded in the file you upload. Files that are uploaded and the artwork links have not been embedded will be missing a very important piece of your artwork which we do not want to happen.
To embed your linked artwork in Illustrator is very easy. To view your linked files and to embed them into your artwork in Illustrator, follow these steps:
- Choose Windows > Links
- Select all the linked images and select the hamburger menu within the Links window
- Select Embed Image(s)
- Your images are now embedded in your Illustrator artwork
- Save Artwork
