maxmph Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) When I open an illustrator file in affinity publisher beta on my mac, the effects added to objects (drop shadows, etc.) in illustrator are not showing in the publisher beta. Is this by design? Is there a way to get the effects to show up in publisher beta when opening an illustrator file? Edited March 11, 2019 by maxmph
firstdefence Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Welcome to the forum @maxmph Affinity only uses the PDF portion of the Ai file. Most effects applied in Ai will be lost. You can apply a drop shadow - called outer shadow in affinity, from the layers panel with the small icon "fx" this opens the fx panel. Note: in Affinity Designer beta you can now add multiple fills and strokes to get very similar effects to Adobe Illustrator. iMac 27" 2019 Sequoia 15.0 (24A335), iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...
