Illustrator files with Adobe Aero

You can use Illustrator files exported as an image file or as a Photoshop document (PSD) with layers.

Illustrator files can be exported to PSD with their layers preserved using either of the following techniques:

1. Separate your document into separate layers. Illustrator layers become Photoshop layers on export, which become Adobe Aero layers when imported.

2. Use groups to control which elements become layers when your export.

Import an Illustrator file as multi-layered asset into Adobe Aero

To bring multi-layered assets from Illustrator into Adobe Aero, export the file as a PSD from Illustrator.

A few things to keep in mind

• Every layer is rasterized upon import into Adobe Aero.
• You can flatten layer groups from the Window > Layers panel in Adobe Illustrator. 
• Layer groups at the top level are flattened into a single layer each.
• Adjustment layers and blend modes at the top level are ignored.
• Adjustment layers within layer groups are flattened.
• Smart objects, text layers, layer effects, and vector layers are rasterized.
• 3D layers at the top are ignored.
• Channels applied as masks are a part of the layer composites. Extra channels are ignored.

What's next?

In Adobe Aero, follow the steps to import assets from Creative Cloud Files.

You can then place the asset, edit the scene, and add interactivity to your 3D content.
