Hi andrewjones764,

Welcome to Affinity Forums

Can you please upload the EPS using this link for us to take a look?

All files will be deleted after being checked. Thanks.

@MEBWould I be able to send my file to you using the above link? I am dealing with a Logo in EPS format and really need it to work with either photo or designer.

Hi @Websites 'N' More,
Is it failing to load at all or it loads but some elements are missing/totally black or "broken" is small pieces?
EPS is an old/limited format which doesn't support any kind of transparency/blend modes and other features used in modern formats.
Typically, EPS files created in Illustrator include embedded Ai data which Illustrator uses to load back a fully editable file (transparency, gradient meshes all included). Unfortunately that data is proprietary and we don't gave access to it, only to the regular (limited) EPS data.
Here's a link you can use to send the file for inspection. Thanks.

If we're starting from Adobe Illustrator, is there a file format I need to export to in order to open it correctly in Affinity Designer?
About attachment:
This is just one small example out of many. Essentially, working with vector images from the stock market is not feasible at all because most of them are now protected by being sliced into various rectangles, making it impossible to edit millions of objects to achieve consistent graphics.

Have you any tips please?
