Doodler Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Hi, I bought a template bundle that said in needed illustrator https://designbundles.net/aksana/1288364-soft-gradient-instagram-carousel-templates & I thought Affinity D could open illustrator files but I just get a few paragraphs with a bunch of nonsense text. I do see layers & groups for bits of that text but no graphics. the .ait file is 42MBs so thee must be more that a bit a text in there... Any tips or help on how to access & customize these templates pls? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hangman Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 That kind of depends on the content of the file but in general 'yes'... If you open a pdf in Designer you'll hopefully get an idea...

Hangman Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 If you Google AIT to PDF converter there are a number available online though I have no ideas if they all have size limitations or how good they are as I've not had a need to convert .ait files before...
