I have been forced to download and install AF designer because a co-worker created a large number of 'vector' illustrations in AFDesigner.
Since most other staffers use Adobe Illustrator, these files need to be converted.
To my dismay I have found that the export functionality of AFDesigner is a total joke: export formats which should inherently support vectors just contain completely rasterised versions of the artwork.
What on earth is the use of that. You have ZERO interoperability. ZERO...
What a joke.
There is definitely a need for more tools than just the Adobe monoculture but by doing this, you are just making yourself redundant.
