We found that if = AI elements were continuously rasterized, WITH an effect (could be = anything, like levels, fill, hue sat etc.) AND you were using it in 3d, = collapsed transforms - the element would simply disappear when you = turned the camera's DOF on. (I think in 8 bit it was fine - 32b = disappeared)

You could only solve it by turning off the effect on the = nested vector element. Which sucked. 

Or - = I solved it on mine by just going the AI>150dpi PSD>AE route = (which I think was faster than CR anyway, and allowed easy converting to = live text.) 

But kind of a buggy = pain.
