I am a n00b. I have a logo that I imported in as a "ai" file. WHat I am trying to do is bevel it. But when I do the face disappears and appears hollow. It is a very simple logo basically it is the letter f. Any help as to how I can bevel this spline is greatly appreciated.

The bevel resulting in a 'hollow' object is probably because the vertices are too close to eachother. Try cleaning up the spline, or trace the logo with a new spline.
Another reason for the front and back polys not showing up could be an open spline.

I also face this problem whenever i import *.ai files , as marcel said you have to clean the spline.. & you may have to change the type of point (ie. corner..smooth..bezier..etc) .
not a very nice process actually.. so good luck with it .
