linds.saurus Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 What do I need to save my Affinity files as if I need to open them later in illustrator? Im slowly weaning off of Adobe but if I switch back and forth I would like to know. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Strawberry Monkey Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Hi, If you need to edit in both applications, then exporting a PSD from Affinity would be best practice, and open the PSD with illustrator rather than Photoshop. And you'll still have the original Affinity file in case something goes wrong along the way.

Hokusai Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I think that simply exporting your Affinity Designer files as PDF will work best. PSD files might be okay for Affinity Photo files but for Designer files, I would stick with PDF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Harris Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 PDF will currently do a better job with text. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreaR Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 ... I switch back and forth ... If you go back to use some feature (still) not on Affinity, you may take a look here and ask there anything you feel Affinity needs to handle, if no one requested it before ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
