Sharon,
I'm not sure what you mean by "the one thing object thing"--it must be
a technical term with which I am not familiar!
However, another route might be to import the Pagemaker file into
InDesign, then to save it in the target format you want. I believe
InDesign's handling of Pagemaker files is far superior to Pagemaker's
export to .ei or .pdf.
Illustrator and InDesign are very interactive, so you should be able
to get the resulting file into Illustrator quite well.
If you don't have InDesign, I have 2.02 (no CS, unfortunately) and can
try to import and then to export to Illustrator for you if you wish.
