Hi,

 

I am brand new to design softwares and I am trying to edit a file created in Adobe Illustrator. When I open the file in Affinity Designer, all the fonts are changed to Arial.

 

Here are the fonts:

 

ACaslonPro - regular

BauerBodoni - italic

Bodoni - book italic

BrandonGrotesque - bold

DIN - bold

DIN - regular

Gotham - book

Gotham - light

Gotham - medium

 

Do I have to purchase the fonts to use them in Affinity Designer? Thanks in advance!

Hi fabuladesigner,

 

Welcome to the forums.

 

You usually need the fonts installed in OS X so Designer can use them. Try changing a setting in Designers Preferences to see if it has any effect when you open the .AI file. On the General tab, uncheck Favour editable text over fidelity > Close, then open your file. However if you wish to be able to edit the text this option may not be suitable.
