Illustrator support files for print?

Question

I submitted the files to a printer and they told me that the illustrator file is missing the support file? whoa??? i have submitted jobs before and never herd of this. ( i used CS3) please help.

This is what the guy said: We received the pdf and the Illustrator File but not support files to go with the Illustrator file.

Answer 1

support files, like the fonts you used or the images you used in your illustrator file.

Its always the best thing to bring it as PDF-file

There wont be anything missing then.
