Trouble Exporting to Illustrator on Mac

I’m trying to export from Rhino to AI on a Mac but consistently I get a file that’s just 20KB and won’t open.

Any suggestions on how to fix this? I’ve tried adjusting settings in the export dialogue but had no luck.

Are your lines you want to export in the top view?

Yes. I was working in the top view almost exclusively for this project. It’s just some line-work in this case.

Does that make a difference?

Can you post the Rhino file here?

It does in the sense that Illustrator, being 2D, doesn’t understand anything except curves on the world Z0 plane.

I’ve made a smaller file that exhibits the same issue. AI Test.3dm (38.2 KB)

I also tried moving objects around to ensure they were on Z0 and saw no improvement.

Thanks for your help.

I have also had problems exporting, what I ended up doing was exporting as a DWG and changing the stroke in Illustrator and sorting the curves out manually.
