Exporting large ai file into psd (URGENT NEED SOME HELP PLS)

Hi @Vincent2768206356sa,

Thanks for reaching out. I would recommend resizing the Illustrator artboard size & its content to fit according to the After Effects composition size (4k, 1080p, or 720p). If there are Multiple artboards, save them as separate Ai files.

Also, ensure to keep layers separate/ ungrouped so you have the flexibility to edit or animate them in After Effects.

Kindly update the discussion if you still need assistance with it. We'd be happy to help.

Thanks,
Anshul Saini

Without seeing your art or knowing what you plan to do wtih this, is difficult to properly advise. If you do not need to animate a path/mask or zoom in to an extreme amount then file >> export >>psd.

Can you split the .ai file into separate files containing a single layer?

the PSD file will only show a few layer that was on top layer in Ai and the rest will be just in one layer .

This points to transparency being used in the file and that also might explain why there are issues in After Effects.

Can you please tell us your hardware specifications?

And also what's in the file? Which features did you use?

If the file is working in Illustrator, then I would recommend exporting the content that you want to import into AE from within Illustrator.

Select the artwork that you want to export and set the format and scale when you export. Here's more information:

• Export artwork
• Collect assets and export in batches
