Affinity Designer - eps-files strangely cut or split

[VUTURE]

Hello there, 

I sometimes use vecteezy, a portal for vectorfiles.
It's strange, so many background-files seem to be corrupt, they show cuts between every part of the file.

If you export it, the lines between the parts still stay.

Maybe somebody knows how to fix this?

Is this because of compatibility issues, or just the corrupted file?

 

Thanks.

 

Best regards

Chris

Hi VUTURE

This is likely due to the .eps file itself, many stock sites serve up '.eps' files which are actually .ai files in an 'eps wrapper'. This means that when importing these files into Affinity objects can be lost or rasterised unexpectedly due to the way the file is saved from Illustrator. 

Unfortunately as the .ai  file type is proprietary we can't read any information from it, meaning the imported eps usually has missing data - hidden where Affinity can't access it.

I hope this makes sense, apologies I can't offer a better solution here!

Thanks @Dan C.
I understood the quintessence. So there is no real solution, because of the "copyright" of .ai-files.

Have a great evening. :)
