Sorry for the bad pic, but I didn't want to use reddit on my work compy.
An issue I'm running into is; when an object in Illustrator has a clipping mask on it and is brought into Photoshop, the bounding box still surrounds the masked area like in the image above. This makes it difficult to effectively center the artwork on any templates we have. Is there a way to bring the image from Illustrator to Photoshop without the clipped areas?
Rasterizing or converting it into a smart object in Photoshop is out of the question as these options effectively flatten thr image and we need to keep the objects as vectors.
I know I could pull the image into Photoshop, rasterize it, center as needed, and pull it in again and center it that way. I was wondering if there might be a better way of doing it.
