Lbrt Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Hi, I´m trying to import into Affinity Designer files in AI format from Rhino 3D software. If I open directly in Affinity nothing is imported, empty document. But If I open the same file in Illustrator all the info is there, and if I save the file inside Illustrator and them open in Affinity the info is there. So, the problem is to open the file directly. Any suggestion? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joachim_L Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 The AI has to be saved with an additional PDF stream. AD can only read this part and Rhino seems to save without the PDF stream. So the best advice would be to save as PDF from Rhino (if possible).

Lbrt Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 Thanks, If I export in PDF is Ok, the problem when you export from Rhino in PDF is that I need to export each drawing in one separate PDF file. Now I export all the drawings in a sema AI file and them in illustrator I create the Work area for each drawing, and is a very fast method, with separate PDFs is much more complicate.
