help Affinity Suite FAQ
Which Affinity app replaces Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign?
Affinity Photo corresponds most closely to Photoshop, Designer covers vector illustration like Illustrator, and Publisher handles page layout like InDesign. The workflows are similar enough for many creative projects, but Affinity files and Adobe files are not perfectly interchangeable.
Can Affinity Publisher edit Photo and Designer content without switching apps?
Publisher's StudioLink feature exposes Photo and Designer tools inside the page-layout application when the corresponding apps are licensed. This lets a user edit raster images, vector artwork, and layouts within one Publisher document.
Does Affinity Suite require a monthly Adobe-style subscription?
Affinity was established as a one-time-purchase alternative to Adobe Creative Cloud rather than a conventional monthly subscription. Licensing and bundle terms can change, so the current offer should be checked before purchase.
Can Affinity open PSD, AI, and InDesign files?
Affinity Photo can open many PSD files, and Designer can import PDF-compatible AI content, but proprietary Adobe features may not transfer exactly. Publisher supports IDML interchange rather than opening every native INDD document directly.
