illustrator CS4 smart objects?


hi
i creating vector illustration of ipad or similar. want able retain vector scalability , have ability change screen image of ipad different image. screen image layer using mask define screen area , there couple of layers on containg lighting overlay screen image.

 

i have tried select current image , 'place' new image, new layer unmasked image on top of previous image.

 

can suggest simple method add new screen image. final file handed people more limited knowledge of illustrator myself.


i have tried export image photoshop , turning screen image layer smart object. clicking on smart object open layer, dragging , dropping new image onto opened smart object , saving. method replace image, when tested scalability of final image in photoshop changing image size 10 % , original size image had blurry edges. perhaps because of live effects illustrator (e.g blur, inner glow) not vector in photoshop??


thanks can supply
john

use links panel , re-link file.
