@Mary: the file is an Illustrator Template file, not a standard Illustrator file, and AFAIK when saving as a template there is no option to enable or disable PDF content. I think the error you are seeing is just due to the fact that it was created in a newer version. Sorry about that. If you send me an email I will try to find a moment to export a CS3 legacy version for you.

Thanks! Perfect for mocking up some templates just now.

Seems that Im having a hard time opening this file. I use CS3 and I know that this file was made for a later version of Illustrator. However, when I opened the file, it just gave me a blank page with:

This is an Adobe Illustrator File that was saved without PDF content. To place or open this file in other applications, it should be re-saved from Adobe Illustrator with thee “Create PDF Compatible File” option turned on. This option is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog box, which appears when saving an Adobe Illustrator file using the Save As command.

@Maria: some of the layers are locked. If you want to edit the background or the device graphics, you would need to unlock those layers first. Otherwise, you can just add your own new elements in the ‘Content’ or ‘Structure’ layers.

Looks like just what I need – thank you! But can you help though – when i open the template fil in Illustrator CS6 everything is fixed and I can not edit anything?

Yes I guess that is a reasonable decision. Personally I have always used the polyfill so I get older browsers to work too. I don’t really see much of a downside to this to be honest. But I guess your way at least modern browsers on phones and tablets should get the benefits of your responsive layout anyway.

There is a small hiccup though – older non-CSS3 browsers aren’t going to respond to the media-queries and thus will be served the standard 960 grid even if they are resized. In the spirit of graceful degradation though, I’m going to let this be instead of trying to implement a JS solution. If you are interested in one though, try the respond.js polyfill .
