When open the same file in Adobe Illustrator, everything looks perfect

I think every software developer has his own philosophy with which standard settings, he delivers his software.

Hi Kwin K,

Welcome to the forums :)

Could you please provide a copy of the file you're opening in both apps?

Please note -

I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time.

Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible.

Many thanks!

Hi Summersara & Dan

Thank you for your help. Attached file is the one I ask for.

I purchased this file from internet to use in my interior design, so I have no idea how this file is created.

When I open with Affinity Designer, then I found this problem, so I need to go back to AI again to use it.

I am in the mid of moving from AI to Affinity. 

 

Thank you.

I believe it's happening because of gradient mesh which has been applied in this eps file. If you go deeper, you'll see that the objects with gradient mesh have been divided into many separate rectangles. I think Affinity is not able to read the gradient mesh feature.

Thanks for your file, the above users are correct - unfortunately Affinity doesn't currently support Gradient Mesh and this is why your document appears differently in Affinity.

This is already logged with our developers as we do hope to improve this in the future, I'll bump the log with your thread now. Many thanks :)
