ronnyb Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Hey Affinity, Will AD be able to import Adobe Illustrator vector brush libraries? Would be very handy to be able to tap into the thousands of brushes out there... Keep up the awesome work!

QueenBee Debbie Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Is this something the updated AD and AP have yet? I'm interested too, as I have many Illustrator brushes. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k410 Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Yes, that would be great! However, I wonder if the AI brushes use a proprietary format that would require Serif to pay Adobe a license fee to allow importing into Affinity Designer. If so, I wonder if that license fee could be offset by selling an AI-brush-import plugin or optional feature as a separate product from Serif. On the other hand, I can imagine Adobe saying no to the whole idea, as it might reduce the number of Illustrator subscribers. All that aside -- yes, it would still be great if we could import Illustrator AI-format brushes. I keep seeing these great brush packs on Creative Market, but unfortunately must think, "nope, can't use those unless I pay $240 a year for Illustrator, and also use Illustrator instead of Affinity Designer." In summary, this is another vote for that feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
