Can I use layers in Fresco the same way I use layers using Illustrator?

Can I use layers in Fresco the same way I use layers using Illustrator? I want to combine an Illustrator file with a Fresco file to use in After Effects. Can I use both as a combo to create an animation vid with?

Fresco images can be saved as psd files, with layers intact. This would definitely allow them to be imported into After Effects.

You can't import Illustrator files into Fresco, but you can export Fresco to pdf which you could then import into Illustrator.

Sorry for the long delay on this subject. So can I then install my illustrator file along with a psd file from Fresco into After Effects so I can then manipulate both separately yet together in creating animation on the same project using After Effects?
