Exporting Paths from Adobe Illustrator to 3ds Max - Tip

Few days ago I met problem with saving some basics paths from Adobe Illustrator to 3ds Max. Problem occurred during importing .ai file to Max. There was error with description that file can not be imported because file's type is unknown. The solution for that problem was to change newest version to legacy. For instance from version CS4, CS4 and so on to Illustrator 8.0. It works perfectly and correctly. Finally I was able to import some paths to Max and worked on them.
