import .sks and .xpr


Recommended Posts

In early 2000's Creature House produced program Expression (v 1,2,3, 3.3)...vector with some bitmap additions; much like Affinity Designer.

I still use Expression; tho now old and runs in win 10 compatibility mode. Microsoft bought out Creature House (Japan) converted Expression to Acrylic and later to MS Expression Designer 4

Expression has some very nifty features for vector brushes such as variable width and fringes and animation.

Affinity Designer has many features like Expression.

Suggestion: update AD to be able to import Expression strokes (*.sks) and drawings (*.xpr). I have at least hundreds if not thousands and there were many free brushes made by many, still available. E3 and MS D 4 are free programs now.

I'd convert, by importing .png files of each .sks, -- but what a huge job . I have done a few important ones.

And Affinity could look at the features in Expression and create new features in Designer of similar ideas.

Thanks, Doug
