Hi ! I have opened an .ai file with affinity designer and I have no information at all on the screen, even when I select "display everything" for the layers. For comparison I also send you what a friend sent me as a screen shot with adobe illustrator. I do not wish to use adobe, how should I proceed.

Thanks, Julien

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums.

The AI data format is proprietary, and Affinity can only understand an AI file if it was saved in the compatibility format, which includes a PDF version of the data. Even then, it can only use the data that AI chooses to include in the PDF.
