How to import A Designer file in A Publisher as vectors?


Recommended Posts

Hello, how should I export Affinity Designer file in order to import it as vectors in Affinity Publisher. I will need all vectors element to be accurate in size and placement. 

Eg. Making a technical graph drawing on an A4 size page in Affinity designer, and I need to put this drawing as editable vectors in Affinity Designer Master page. And I need it to be at the exact snappable grids. 

 

Thank you

Hello @Foundx,

simply safe the AD file in it's native format and in Publisher use the command 'File > Place'. You then can double click in APub on the placed file and it opens within APub in a new tab and you can edit it there.

You might also watch this video tutorial in which placing different file formats is explained:

It is not need export and import, it is same file format (only different extension).

Try menu File, Edit in Publisher...

Or try create new file in Publisher, and vector painting make by Designer Persona.
