rosenthaller Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Hi, I was very excited when I heard Affinity Designer was in the works as I thought it would be the perfect system for me. However, the lack of DXF export makes it useless for my purposes. I have an art production company and 90% or our work is setting up 2D cut files for laser cutting and cnc milling. I am stuck with AI even though I loathe it and even have a legacy copy of DrawPlus X8 which I regenerate pretty much every dxf file I produce BECAUSE THEY ARE THE MOST RELIABLE CROSS-PROGRAM-FRIENDLY DXFS I HAVE EVER USED. Soooooo frustrating I can't take combine the streamlined workflow of Affinity AND output files I can actually use for something other than print. If you share my pain please pitch in! I know so many people who won't make the change to AD for that one reason. Any feedback from Serif on this?? furtonb 1 Quote
