Motion path and Particular

Hi,
I have a complex illustration (consisting only of lines) made in illustrator, which I will copy into AE.
I want to animate these lines in a "write-on" manner with particular (I want to add some turbulence later to make it more organic). My question, how can I parent the light emitter to my path imported from Illustrator?

You should be able to paste the path from Illustrator directly into the position property of the light, provided you have followed the instructions in the AE help file:
"Note: To make the data copied from Illustrator compatible with After Effects, the AICB option must be selected in the Files & Clipboard section of the Adobe Illustrator Preferences dialog box."
