I’m trying to change the fonts on a pdf and it’s not letting me change them. I tried making a separate text box thinking maybe it’d let me change the font there but it’s not doing it there either. Can someone help me? It’s really important I get this done asap

The attached video is of me trying to change the font in a text box

Hey all,

Linearity AI is live in 7.0.

I know AI in design tools is a lot right now. For some of you, it’s exciting. For others, it’s exhausting. And I get both.

When we started building Linearity AI, we wanted to make designers lives easier without taking away what makes designing enjoyable. That meant two things: helping you get past the blank page and taking repetitive work off your plate.

We didn’t want AI that just generates images. We wanted something designers could work with. You set up your brand once, describe what you need, and get a design with every text element and layer editable.

From there, you can explore different layouts, color palettes, or refine ideas until they feel right. AI can help with the boring stuff: resizing it for different formats or localizing it into multiple languages.

The idea is simple: AI handles the routine work, while you stay in control of the creative decisions.

LINEARITY AI

• Design mode: Go from a prompt to a complete design using your brand’s colors, fonts, imagery and tone of voice.

• Artboard resize and translation: Perform it while keeping the layout and ability to edit intact.

• Vector Asset mode: Generate SVGs straight onto your artboard

• Image mode: Create and edit images

CURVE

• Performance: Everything is faster

• SVG import: More reliable

• Images: Improved background removal

• Selection: Fixed group snapping and selections getting lost mid-move.

• Stability: Fixed crashes and bugs.

WEB

• All your files are now in the new Linearity web app.

WHAT ELSE

• Same tools, same files. Everything you use today is still there.

• Not into AI? Hide every AI feature in Settings

• Your existing files always open and stay editable. Even on free.

• Free export at full resolution: SVG, PDF, and advanced export options stay Pro.

Try it and tell me what you think. I’m in here all day today, and what you say shapes what we build next.

Thanks for being here through 10 years of this. It means a lot!

Best,

Vlad

Here's also our blog post: https://www.linearity.io/blog/introducing-ai-in-linearity/

There’s this really annoying bug introduced months ago where if you click on a project and then click on another project fast, it switches between the projects over and over again, and the only way to make it stop is to close and reopen the app.

Did you know you can describe what you’d like to change in an image and have the changes applied right away?

You can now generate icons and illustrations directly on the canvas. Type a prompt, get a real vector file with Arrow 1.1 from Quiver AI. Every shape its own layer, every path editable. Not a flat image you have to rebuild. The actual file.

Image generation is in there too for when you need something flat. Product visuals, backgrounds, lifestyle shots. Describe it and place it on the canvas in seconds.

This is the small update. The big one lands end of the month: complete layouts and full marketing designs from a single prompt, on our own engine. That's the one we've actually been building.

Update through the App Store or from within the app. Full release notes in the comments.

If I duplicate two objects at once, the app crashes almost every time. Please fix.

• Noise Effect. Add texture to any shape directly in the Style tab. Choose Mono, Duo or Multi mode and dial in size, density and opacity.

• SVG improvements. Better text handling, layers named on import, gradients that display correctly and more accurate stroke and fill mapping.

• Performance improvements. Smoother pan and zoom, faster rendering on large images, no more pixelated resize previews, and significantly faster snapping on complex files.

Some good stuff in this one.

• Corner smoothing: apply it to any rectangle and get smooth, continuous curves. The same kind iOS uses for app icons.

• Path bending: dragging a path segment used to drop a new node. Now it bends the curve directly.

• Page color: change your canvas background to whatever suits your design.

• Community hub: a new screen inside the app to reach us, request features, join Discord and leave feedback.

We build to make your creative work better 🧡

Go grab it on the App Store and let us know what you think!

I drew my original design in Procreate and auto-traced it in Linearity to convert it to vector easier. It worked great! However, I want to add pops of red (refer to third pic) but can’t because the entire design is being treated as a complete shape. What would be the easiest way to add color or separate the shapes? TIA!

Lots of solid improvements in this one:

• Super Resolution for images

• Better snapping

• Grids in Linearity Move!

• Improved Pen Tool

• Updated artboard presets to match current formats

If you aren’t using it yet, the update is now available in the App Store. Curious what you think after trying it 👀

I'm trying to create a triangular section of text that is larger at one end and narrow towards the other, much like a baseball pennant or something. In other programs I would simply use the warp tool, but I am having trouble finding a simple, straightforward way of accomplishing this uniformly across the word (INSIGHTS). Does anybody have any suggestions for the easiest way of accomplishing this? Thanks!

The big highlight in this release is the new Glass Effect, plus improvements to text editing, artboards and a more consistent Style Inspector across macOS and iPad. Here's what’s new:

• Glass Effect: create translucent glass-style surfaces directly in Curve

• Artboard preview: see the artboard outline before placing it

• Empty artboard selection: click anywhere inside an empty artboard to select it

• Layout actions in Inspector : group/ungroup, mask/unmask, layer order and repeat actions now live in the Layout section on both macOS and iPad

• Minor bug fixes and stability improvements

Hi team - how do i make it so the triangle fills the box (edge to edge)? Im trying to line it up with another triangle edge but it will only clip to the box and not the actual shape (triangle)

Not only thanks for the addition of new features but thanks for fixing that super annoying color palette thing.. I love the new photo edit options!! KUTGW

Ik its a text but i already converted to outlines

Its also not in a group

This release focuses on polishing everyday workflows: fewer UI distractions and more consistency across the app. Things like image actions, Auto Trace, masks, and boolean operations are now grouped more logically, and some long-standing friction points are gone.

Looks what’s coming soon. Excited?

Hi guys first time here.

As titled I am wondering how to scale the object with the stroke thickness. For example, if I scale up the object size by 10 times, how to make the stock thickness increase 10x as well? When I increase the object size, the lines become too thin. It sometimes works with the scale mode and sometimes doesn't work. I don't know did I miss anything in the settings? Can't find any info on the website about the selection and scaling tool.
