exporting gradient and effects in PDF


Recommended Posts

Hi, 

First of all thanx for this great software. 

 

I've got a problem is with the gradient and effects like blur. I'm working a lot with animators (after effect) and when I want to export in PDF vectors drawings, I can't export gradient or effects like blur (it transform it in pixel or something like this).

The only way is to use illustrator. It takes time and complicate the process.

Do you think it could be possible to integrate this in the futurs updates? 

 

Another feedback it's about the pen tool. Compare with the AI pen tool ( as I was using it before, it's the best comparative point I have ) the designer's pen tool is really slow (if you want to go fast and design various points ). If I'm too fast, a lot of point doesn't appear. Should be really great to get more reactivity.

 

I hope this could help.

 

Bye

mattimat,

 

I believe that all "effects" including blurring will be rasterized when you export them to PDF. As far as I know, this is true in Illustrator too. For gradients, make sure you aren't using a transparent fill as one of the fills on the gradient, if you do it will always be rasterized. Here is a link that explains things better. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/8463-do-all-effects-and-gradients-get-rasterized/
