[Muhammad_A]

Hi, 

I am using affinity designer on ipad. I like it very much. I am new to affinity designer. I have question regarding exporting file to use in illustrator. As illustrator support SVG and EPS file and affinity designer also export in SVG and EPS. I am facing an issue, when i export file in eps,svg or eps after exporting when I open file in illustrator then its show just a images not editable layers. Somehow i manaaged to open file in illustrator with layer but the effect which i applied on layer like, noise effect, color balance effect all efefcts not working. can you please help me guide me to export file perfectly for illustrator on IPAD.

Thanks

It sounds as though you have applied FX options to your layers in Affinity Designer - when these are used the layers have to be rasterised upon export aa they are not vector compatible. Unfortunately exporting to any format whilst using the FX options will result in rasterisation, my apologies.

I hope this clears things up!
