whole multi-artboard document.

The engine reads the file — vectors, text, fonts and images. No
prompt, no settings to tune.
Copy to Clipboard
3 · Edit in Figma
With the plugin, artboards land straight on your canvas. From the
web app, copy the result and paste it into Figma — either way,
fully editable layers.
illustrator.to.design vs the alternatives
Most ways of getting an .ai file into Figma flatten it to a
static image, or push you through SVG exports that drop text and break paths.
illustrator.to.design is purpose-built to rebuild the file as a Figma design,
with editable layers instead of a flat image. Here's how they compare:
How illustrator.to.design compares with basic Illustrator
importers when turning an .ai file into a Figma design.
Shapes, strokes and paths come back as real Figma vectors — move the anchor points and reshape them with zero quality loss.
Fonts, matched
Imported text is fully editable, with fonts detected and mapped to what you have in Figma — any missing fonts are flagged so you can swap them before import.
Images & graphics
Embedded photos and raster art are extracted as high-resolution images, while vector artwork stays fully editable.
Every artboard
Import a single artboard or the whole document — each one lands as its own frame, correctly positioned. Ideal for large, multi-screen files.
Illustrator's 3D renders and some artistic brush strokes may need light
cleanup after import — but you start from real, editable layers, not a
screenshot.
Pricing
Credit cost varies with the file's size and complexity.
