How Do I Convert a Figma File to Illustrator?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 10:27 pm

There are a few reasons you might want to convert a Figma file to Illustrator. Maybe you’re trying to open a Figma file in older software that doesn’t support .fig files, or maybe you’re collaborating with someone who only uses Illustrator.

Whatever the reason, converting from Figma to AI is easy to do. Here’s how:

First, open your Figma file in the desktop app. Then, go to File > Export > Export As.. and select .ai from the drop-down menu.

When the export window pops up, make sure to select All Frames from the Export range drop-down menu. Then click Export.

Your file will now be exported as an AI file that you can open in Adobe Illustrator.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with either Figma or Illustrator, it is advised not to attempt to convert a Figma file to Illustrator. Doing so may result in the file being corrupted or otherwise unusable.

There you have it! Now you know how to convert a Figma file to Illustrator in just a few steps.
