Why convert HEIC to AI?

AI is Adobe Illustrator’s native vector format. Converting from HEIC — the high-efficiency format iPhones use to save camera photos — makes your files easier to share, edit and open everywhere.

Is HEIC to AI conversion lossless?

AI uses efficient compression; you can keep quality high while getting a smaller, more compatible file.

Format details

HEIC is the high-efficiency format iPhones and iPads use to store photos. It packs better quality into about half the size of JPG, but isn’t supported everywhere, so it often needs converting to share.
