form fields and interactive pdf export would be nice

As for me this is becoming more and more important. I notice that loads of clients are starting to send people digital forms instead of the old fashioned 'paper by post'. Currently i have three projects running that require both hyperlinks as form-possibilities.

Export from Affinity Designer seems to be a total trainwreck so far. PDF export loses layer structure and names in addition to rasterizing objects instead of preserving the vector format. I am using v1.65.123.
This is game breaker, as I need to export fully compatible files to collaborators who use different apps like Illustrator.
 
Please, please, PLEASE implement improve the export function. Also, Illustrator file-export would be great (as long as it preserves document appearance and structure, of course). This feature would definitely make switching over to Affinity much easier for people.
 
[EDIT] Although far from perfect, SVG at least keeps layer groups and titles. it does still rasterize objects, though.
[EDIT2]: SVGs generated this way are imported into Illustrator with heavy artifacts such as wrong line thicknesses. Thus no alternative.

Great stuff, thank you @Michelangelo_ for sharing it! :)

Hi guys, I've checked this video (at 1:10)
 
and this post about the Mock-up
 
Maybe I'm not the first to try this way but it works and I can edit all contents in real time without AP. The current version of AD does not support the Perspective Distortion but the isometric view is pretty nice ( you can add the PD through AP).     - Mock-up as a symbol. - duplicate the symbol, add a group (one of each face)  - add the vector crop tool and crop each face - add skew and rotate each face. - add shadows and light reflections to isometric view.     in the example you can edit the box and the isometric view reflect your modification.   DOWNLOAD TEMPALTE   Michelangelo ________ BTW, Another project with AD file: Medusa

an update on this work. the simulation can be also animate with HypePro, I made a new box based on my AD file. more info here
I made a lot of works with both softwares and I hope that is possible, in future, an option to export a suitable shape to hype with AD for the morphing animation;
thanks!
