This project consists of modifying 3 different DLL's to extract the preview image from Adobe Illustrator files.
1. Classic DLL writen in Visual Studio 2008 C++ that will extract the embedded preview to a TIFF or BMP file. This dll will be used in VB6 and is already written but needs support added for AI files. If no preview is in the file a default preview will be extracted from resource.
2. Windows Explorer File Extension DLL written in Visual Studio 2008 C++ to preview Adobe Illustrator files. If no preview is in the file a default preview will be shown from an embedded resource. This will include a Thumbnail DLL and Icon DLL. Basic Skelleton code for Shell Extension will be supplied to winning Bidder, so all you have to do is add support for generating the preview.
