Revolution has it's own vector format, but currently doesn't support
importing of any common vector formats for editing. There is also no
subpixel positioning of points, which can make display of vector objects
somewhat coarse at times.

However, Alejandro Tejada has built some tools for importing rudimentary
Illustrator vectors into Rev.  You must use a version 7 or 8 generated
Illustrator file and I believe special effects/fills (?) are not supported,
though this may have changed.  Some links:

Hope this helps.
