Hi Profiler, Once you have chosen your file and clicked edit in Affinity photo. You can make any edits then go to File > Save in Affinity and it will update the copy that has been made in Aperture. C

Hi Rupe, Welcome to the forums :) It is not something that is possible within Affinity at the moment. However Art Boards are something we have on our roadmap so it may be possible in the future. C

Hi Frosty, Welcome to the forums :) To get this to work correctly you would need to setup Affinity as an external editor in Aperture. To do this please follow the instructions in this guide. Once this has been done you will be able to choose your photo go to edit with external program and then choose Affinity. In Affinity any changes you make will also update the copy you have in Aperture. C

Hi Profiler, As I said in my previous post you do not save into Aperture. You would overwrite your original image which would then in turn update the one you have in Aperture. Is your image stored in an Aperture library or is it stored in another location? C

Hi Profiler, We don't other telephone support as all support is done through the Forum. I have responded to your question regarding Aperture. C

Hi Profiler, With Aperture you don't save directly into the program. Aperture references the image on your MAC so saving any edits you have made from Affinity should update the image being referenced in Aperture. We don't offer telephone support as all support is done through the Forum. C

Hi Military Raiden, Welcome to the forums :) We are not currently aware of any issues like this, there are some compatibility issues with El Capitan. Which version of OS X are you running?

No problem :)

Hi Ngoodirch, Welcome to the forums. Please could you try downloading the latest Customer Beta Build, then open the file in the Beta to see if you still get the same issue. C

Hi Epdfilm, Welcome to the forums :) The app should export majority of the objects without needing to flatten them. Would you be able to attach your file so I may investigate this further? C

Hi Wlayten, Welcome the forums :) Could you please try the steps in this guide to see if that enables you to use Affinity with Aperture. C

Hi Ga22by, Welcome to the forums :) The system requirements for the app state that it needs a 64bit processor to run. C

Hi CarolC, Welcome to the forums :) While exporting your photo as a JPG did you click the More button and change the Pixel Format to CMYK? C

Hi Pentaxian, Regarding plugins I have included a post from one of our developers explaining our current progress with plugin support. For the latest bug fixes and features I would recommend downloading the latest Customer Beta Build. C

Hi Sheena, Welcome to the forums! Could you please specify in a bit more detail what it is you are trying to achieve? Are you just trying to create a multilayer composition? C

Hi SteveShelley, It doesn't really matter when you resize your photo. The adjustment layer will always resize to match your document. C

Hi Mystic Shadow, Welcome to the forums! Please could you attach the RAW file that you are having this issue with and one of the JPGS you have exported so that I may investigate this further. C

Hi David, Welcome to the forums! Affinity Photo definitely let you add text to photos. In terms of vector tools we have the pen,node and quick shape tools available in Affinity Photo. We will be releasing a trial version of Affinity Photo very soon so if you are still unsure of which program to get you could always wait for the trial. Hope this helps :) C

Hi Zeebaf, We have no official plans just yet to add a feature for Exporting CSS styles. However it is something the developers are considering, you can see a previous post they responded to here. C

Hi Ralfmaro, Welcome to the forums! At this moment in time it is not possible to do this. However Batch Processing is something that is on our RoadMap for the future.

Hi Mattbwm, This isn't currently a feature within the program. However it has been requested in the past so it may be added in the future. C

Hi Fioled, Welcome to the forums. At the moment there is no bleed tool in Affinity Photo however it is on our roadmap. You could add a manual bleed by making your document a little bigger than it is supposed to be. In terms of the format it depends on how the printer wants the document to be setup. Sometimes the front and the back are split into separate PDFS. C

Hi Stoshphoto, Welcome to the forums. When trying to lower the size of a file there are a few things you will need to keep in mind. The overall resolution of the image will effect the size of the image if your image is very large I would recommend resizing it to a smaller resolution. There is also the Resampling options, the size of your photo will depend on which of these you choose. I have found that using Bicubic achieves the best results for reducing size. Finally you also have the quality presets in the program changing these will lower the quality of your JPGs but it will lower the size by substantial amount. Hope this helped. C

Hi John, Welcome to the forums! Once you have opened your document in Affinity Photo you will need to unlock the layer. On the right hand side of the app there is a layers tab you will see a background layer with a picture of a padlock next to it. Clicking the padlock should make it disappear which will unlock the layer. Once the layer has been unlocked you can use the select tool to select the object on the page you would like to move. Once you the the object selected you will need to switch back to the Move tool to move the object around. You can do this by clicking the black arrowhead from the lefthand tool bar or by pressing V on your keyboard. Hope this helps. C

Hi FrancescaD Welcome to the forums! There is currently a bug in the software that is causing TIFF files to export blank instead of keeping transparency. This has been passed onto our developers to look into. C
