Can I Import Vector to Figma?

Last updated on November 25, 2022 @ 6:34 pm

There is a lot of debate amongst designers about which design software is better, Figma or Sketch. While both have their pros and cons, one area where Figma definitely has an advantage is its ability to import vector files.

Unlike Sketch, which requires you to convert your vector files to .pngs or .jpgs before importing them, Figma can import vector files directly. This means that you can keep your design file nice and tidy, without having to worry about exporting different versions for different devices.

So if you’re wondering “Can I import vector files into Figma? “, the answer is a resounding YES!

And if you’re looking for a way to style text in HTML using < p >, < b >, and < u > tags, Figma has you covered there too. Just select the text element you want to style and click the “Text” menu at the top of the screen. From there, you can use the “Format” options to apply bold, italic, underline, and other text formatting options.

PRO TIP: If you are planning on importing a vector file into Figma, be aware that there are some potential risks involved. Vector files can be very complex, and if not imported correctly, can cause problems with the software. Additionally, if you are not familiar with vector files, it is recommended that you seek out a professional to help you with the import process.
