BastianN Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 (edited) At first sorry for my bad English. In my first Affinity Project I developed a logo by using curves and filled the Strokes with a Brush. Everything looks just as I imagined. But if I want to export it now as a not rasterized File the used brush disappears and is replaced by a standard brush. The problem occurs with both: PDF and SVG. All Pixel based File-Formats like JPG or TIFF work great. I need the File as Vector based PDF. I attached a screen from Designer and the Result in PDF. I attached also the afdesign file. Is there any setting that I have overlooked? hexhex_final.afdesign Edited September 29, 2020 by BastianN Quote
Dan C Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Hi @BastianN, Welcome to the forums I can see you have applied a Textured Brush Stroke to these curves, unfortunately these cannot be 'Expanded' or retained in vector format, so they have to be rasterised when exporting to PDF / SVG formats, my apologies!

BastianN Posted September 30, 2020 Author Posted September 30, 2020 Ok, thank you for that Information. Make sense. Is there any Option to convert the Stroke into a closed shape, maybe that will work also. Quote

Affinity Vector Brushes currently are not vector brushes, except for the one that's just like a regular stroke. They stretch or repeat a raster image along a vector path. Quote
