simplynu Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Hi, I'm new to Affinity Designer. As a graphic designer & illustrator I used Illustrator -- for over 10+ years -- to create all my files. Now I need to open or import old LAYERED AI files with Affinity. Is there any way of doing this? I have all my work in Illustrator and need to have access to all layers. When I open AI files it only takes the active layer, dismissing all others. Please help! Thanks a bunch :-) Elena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted December 5, 2016 Staff Share Posted December 5, 2016 Hi simplyny, Welcome to the forums. Affinity Designer can import illustrator files.however it relies on those files being saved with PDF compatibility this is the PDF stream that Designer uses to open them. Some older files used EPS instead, Designer will still open these,however some things like text may be converted to curves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
