Advice on Printing Business Card with same design on both sides. Do I need a two page card? As below. Or could I just use one page and flip the printing card and print one design on both sides? I know I have to set up another document and use file place within a grid to print on the page. Face Mask.afpub

@thomaso I wanted to know how you save the text styles. This not explained yet the official Affinity book uses a blank file with text styles set up in it, that is imported. Now reading between the lines and from what you guy's have taught me is that this one way of importing text styles and, the other is just grabbing from what ever file has what you want. Both ways are good depending what you are trying to do. The big problem is, it's not explained anywhere, you have to figure it out and it shouldn't have to be that way.

@Old Bruce I'm sure you're correct on this. All I wanted to know was If you can import a style, How do you save it in the first place. It seems the help documentation is out of date or doesn't explain things fully (leaves a lot to be desired). I now know that you just import from any Publisher file. It looks like you have to either create a blank file with styles set up or you take a pre-created file and delete all contents except the styles and do a save as to a publisher file, to be used in another project. @Old Bruce can you confirm this? No one wants to hunt through files, that you may only to use a styles file. For the sake of neatness you keep all your assets together.

@thoamso @GarryP this is not explained very well the book does not say this nor the help. Now you're telling me I can just get from any file. Great! From the help: Styles are predesigned sets of effects, fills, colors and other properties that can be instantly applied to objects. They are managed on the Styles panel. Your Affinity app can import compatible styles files with an .afstyles file extension. If styles are supplied in a ZIP archive, extract the archive's contents before proceeding. To import styles: Select the Styles panel. From the Panel Preferences menu, select Import Styles Category. Browse to and select the .afstyles file you want to import. Click Open. After importing @thomaso like I said you create an empty file by what ever means (a copy deleting al contents except styles) and using it. I said this in my original post all you had to do was confirm it. Don't mean to sound arssee but no worries.
