About this plugin

Pencil to Figma Importer lets you seamlessly import .pen files exported from Pencil (pencil.dev) directly into Figma.


This plugin focuses on pixel-perfect fidelity, accurately recreating your original Pencil designs in Figma with full layer structure, layout, and visual styles preserved.


What gets imported:

• Pages and artboards

• Frames, groups, and layer hierarchy

• Shapes, vectors, and paths

• Text layers with font styles, alignment, and spacing

• Fills, strokes, gradients, images, and effects

• Auto Layout and constraints (when available)


How it works:

1. Open the plugin in Figma

2. Upload a .pen file exported from Pencil

3. The design is reconstructed instantly on your current page


This plugin is ideal for designers and teams who prototype or design in Pencil and want to continue editing, collaborating, or handing off designs in Figma — without rebuilding anything manually.
