When I tried the Illustrator version of the same brushes in Illustrator, I could get true vector drawings. For example, I bought some lovely watercolor vector brushes for Affinity Designer from a website just to realize that what I draw with them in Affinity Designer doesn't become a real vector image. This feature is not only important for tracing images (which I don't really do) but also for using some custom vector brushes. I'm hoping that Affinity will introduce an image trace feature soon. Even though Affinity Designer lacked some features that Illustrator has, it became my favorite drawing app very quickly and is still after using it for more than a year daily. The interface felt so easy to handle, uncluttered, and user-friendly after Illustrator. But the app gets updates pretty regularly so I'm hoping that it will only get better and better with each update. I switch back to Illustrator only when I have something I can't achieve with Affinity Designer. You can still open them but all the layers groups will be merged into a single giant group making you spend some time rearranging things.Įven though it has some restrictions, I love using Affinity Designer and use it instead of Illustrator about 90% of the time. Another thing that you may feel limited is that you see templates for Illustrator everywhere but not for Designer. For that, I have to use Inkspace but everything else: Affnity Designer. The only thing I cannot do in Affinity Designer so far is to get a PNG and trace it into a vector. You have it ready to use and installed properly. The controls are very intuitive and easy to use, the results are way too good and so far, after all these years there's nothing I regret from using Affinity Designer If you buy a set of tools on the Serif store, you do not have to download them and install them on a certain folder, you just go into the panel, click, that's it. PROSĪffinity Designer is the best Adobe Illustrator alternative that will let you edit SVG, AI, EPS, PDF files with ease.
I have the whole suite working together: Designer, Photo, Publisher and it helps me stay on a competitive level against other businesses offering the same services.
