Can I Import Adobe XD to Figma?

Last updated on September 29, 2022 @ 8:53 am

Adobe XD and Figma are both great tools for designing user interfaces and web applications. They both have their own strengths and weaknesses, but ultimately it comes down to personal preference.

So, can you import Adobe XD files into Figma? The short answer is yes, but there are some caveats.

Adobe XD uses the .xd file format, which is not directly compatible with Figma. However, you can export your Adobe XD designs as .png or .jpg files and then import them into Figma.

PRO TIP: Please be advised that importing Adobe XD files into Figma is not currently supported. We recommend converting your Adobe XD file into a PDF or PNG before attempting to import it into Figma.

There are a few things to keep in mind when doing this, though. First, any text in your Adobe XD design will be rasterized when exported as a .jpg file.

This means that you won’t be able to edit the text in Figma. You’ll also lose any layer structure from your Adobe XD design.

So, while you can technically import Adobe XD designs into Figma, it’s not really the ideal workflow. If you’re looking to switch from Adobe XD to Figma, it’s probably better to just start from scratch in Figma.

In conclusion, while you can technically import Adobe XD designs into Figma, it’s not really the ideal workflow.
