rnmartinez Posted September 27, 2022 Posted September 27, 2022 Hi everyone Just wondering if anyone could help. I want to export from Corel into Affinity. I know I can’t do this directly, but am wondering if anyone has found the right settings to create something that Affinity will recognize as text layers. I want to migrate a bunch of projects and all my text carries over as curves. Whenever I try making a .ai file it is blank in Affinity, and PDFs are just curves instead of text. any help would be amazing! Quote
Ron P. Posted September 27, 2022 Posted September 27, 2022 Try exporting from CorelDraw as SVG. In the SVG Export dialog, make sure to set it to export text as text. text2affinity.svg Quote Affinity Photo 2.6..; Affinity Designer 2.6..; Affinity Publisher 2.6..; Affinity2 Beta versions.

Ron P. Posted September 27, 2022 Posted September 27, 2022 I just managed to Export a PDF from CorelDraw (2017) and opened with Affinity Designer. All the text was still text. corel2affinity.pdf Quote Affinity Photo 2.6..; Affinity Designer 2.6..; Affinity Publisher 2.6..; Affinity2 Beta versions.
