Dear Affinity/Serif,
I am longer time owner of Affinity Photo and Designer and now I bought Publisher as well to try it out. However I found an problem which currently makes it difficult to me to move to it.
Description:
I have a bible with all the verses in database. With my current software I created small program which automatically marks everything: Chapter name with "Chapter" paragraph style, marks verse numbering as subscript, adds tab between subscript number and actual verse text, book names as "Book name" paragraph style. Therefore I am able to import entire text automatically (without manually going to every single verse and one by one doing it myself).
I opened the file generated from publisher in editor and I see it is binary format... therefore i do not know how to add text to it myself.
Is there any feature which allows me to programmatically add big texts? If so how? I am able to modify my generator to produce any output as needed. But i do not know currently any way to do it. Is there some text import format? Example:
assuming affinity-document-style-chapter and affinity-document-style-01 are already created in my affinity document. Can i import something like:
<p style="affinity-document-style-chapter">Chapter name 1</p>
<p style="affinity-document-style-01"><subsript>1.</subscript>test of the verse</p>
...
Thank you for help and hopefully you can understand what i mean (as english is not my native language).
