: Opening Inkscape SVG in Illustrator, not looking right I'm new to graphics, and had to make a small poster for a competition. I created it in Inkscape, but found out they need a .ai file.
I'm new to graphics, and had to make a small poster for a competition. I created it in Inkscape, but found out they need a .ai file. I tried opening the SVG in Illustrator, and it just does not look the same. I don't know how I can fix this!
Here's what it looks like in Inkscape:
And in Illustrator:
I know nothing about Illustrator, so I don't know if there is a simple fix for this.
For reference, here is the file as well in SVG format.
Thanks, I really appreciate your help!

Try exporting it from Inkscape as a format that is likely to be well understood by Illustrator.
I would probably first try PDF. But other relatively common exchange formats between them may include EPS and (if you're on Windows and you're desperate) WMF.
Do you get all those errors opening the svg file as well?
There are simply some objects which are not understood. Turn off visibility (as I've done) or delete the object layers I've highlighted in the image.
To view this image larger, right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac) the image and choose Open Image in new Tab/Window...
The objects appear to have something to do with the largest hang glider, but I can't figure out what they are actually suppose to create. They simply make a brown streak, then eventually cover everything.
