How Do I Import a Figma File Into XD?

Last updated on September 29, 2022 @ 10:31 am

Figma is a great design tool that many people use to create amazing designs. However, one thing that can be frustrating about Figma is that it doesn’t natively support importing files from other design tools.

This means that if you’re working on a project in Figma and you need to import a file from another design tool, you have to export the file as an image and then import it into Figma as an image. This can be a bit of a hassle, especially if you’re working with multiple design tools.

Thankfully, there’s a workaround that allows you to import files from other design tools into Figma. The workaround is to use the Figma plugin for Adobe XD.

PRO TIP: If you are planning on importing a Figma file into XD, be aware that there may be some compatibility issues. Make sure to check with both software programs to see if there are any specific instructions on how to do this. Also, be sure to save a backup of your Figma file before attempting to import it into XD.

Adobe XD is a design tool that allows you to create vector-based designs. The Figma plugin for Adobe XD allows you to import your Adobe XD files into Figma.

To use the Figma plugin for Adobe XD, first open your Adobe XD file in Adobe XD. Then, go to the “Plugins” menu and select “Figma.”

A new window will open up asking you to sign in to your Figma account. Once you’ve signed in, you’ll be able to select which project you want to import your Adobe XD file into. After you’ve selected a project, click “Import” and your Adobe XD file will be imported into Figma as a vector file!

The Figma plugin for Adobe XD is a great way to quickly and easily import files from other design tools into Figma. If you’re working on a project in Figma and you need to import a file from another design tool, give the plugin a try!
