That will help. I figured Xpression didn't work with vectors because you can't import an .svg file, but the "polygons" was what I needed.

If you'd like a technical reason it's because we don't work with vectors.
We support C4D, obj, fbx, 3ds objects as polygons (triangles) or Ps with layers or most rendered image types and video as avi with XPression codec.

No, you can import Photoshop files but not Illustrator.

I think I know the answer to this, but can import Adobe Illustrator (.ai) files directly into Xpression? Please don't ask why, the client is being weird.
