Best way to open or export APho 2 files in APho 1

[Affinity Rat]

I’m aware there are some new features not supported by APho 1, but I would like to know the best compatible method. I tried an export and import of PSD, and that worked but is there a better technique?

It will perhaps depend on the file content. PSD, PDF, or SVG might all be appropriate for vector content. Or TIFF for raster images, as might be used often in Photo.

Thanks Walt, my files generally have many grouped layers, vectors content and masks, so PSD probably best approach.

Most of my work done on Ipad, as vector graphics seem easier to me, but I have the desktop version of APho 1 but not 2 yet. Only occasionally work on desktop

Wish Serif would allow an export from APho 2 in old format.

If you had both on the Desktop, you'd have an additional choice that often works: Copy everything in V2 and either Paste into a V1 doc or use File > New from Clipboard in V1.
