Remove black-grey background from this eps file

[JulianSchmeizl]

Hello,

 

I have downloaded this picture as a premium member:
https://www.freepik.com/free-vector/white-light-flash-effect_1136441.htm#page=1&query=glow&position=4&from_view=search

But sadly I cannot remove the black-grey background.

The downloaded zip folder contains a .jpg and .eps file. And since there is no .png file I cannot remove the background...

Does someone has an idea for me? This would be great!

I have a solution which is 80% working by using filters to only make the bright part appear but there is still some background visible...

You will see both files attached.

 

Best Regards

Julian

Had to use illustrator. AfDesign pixelated it all

Why is that a PDF file?

Can you export this as .png?
I see this 😅

Or do you know an option in affinity photo or designer to solve this problem, or can it only be solved in illustrator?

That's what I see as well. Just add a black background yourself and Bob's your uncle!

Hi @JulianSchmeizl,

Please see the below FAQ regarding this file, as it explains why it is 'rasterised' when opening in Affinity, but not in Illustrator - 

I hope this clears things up!
