fred van mourik Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Hello I am making a switch to affinity2. I have a redesign logo which I made with stoneage Adobe Illustrator CS5 Opening this in Affinty is no problem. Q: but what is the best workflow when I am done in Designer (and need to send a file to the client and printshop) ? I cannot save as .ai in designer, do I do this in publisher? Or is .pdf the best option for outputfile? Could you suggest a best practice? Many thanks in advance. Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komatös Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Hi @fred van mourik and welcome to the forum. None of the Affinity programs can save or export files in Adopay .ai format. Which file format, other than .ai, the printer prefers to accept, you will have to ask them. I assume .pdf is their second choice. You should also use PDF for the presentation to the client.
