Change to the Photo persona and go the acquire image route.

A little late, but if it's leaving the last line like you have said... you probably have a forced line break at the end of the text which will cause it (mainly when using justified all text). I came back to see if there was an update to this topic with the new release (1.9).

WOW!!! I've been using Affinity for about a year now and I finally know how to use the flood select tool to erase a simple background (magic word... RASTERIZE). Since I could never get it, I just did a different way of selecting it.

I fully understand sonorman situation because I was looking for it as well, but will explain why what he is trying to is imperative in my usage. When image files with transpariences are used in a file, on my many RIPs it will either cause them to fail or lock-up. So, instead of using files with transparencies we would use a clipping path and allow the clipping path to cutout that image (so to speak) and the RIP will not have to read the image file transparencies instead of us having to create the file and convert the file to .jpg so it will be a flattened file for use through a (i.e. KONICA) RIP.

Following up with FDE101, I used that print dialog box option to turn my booklet into a print-ready PDF, but my printer had major font issues and I didn't want to flatten the file in case he needed to make a change to the PDF. I wanted to do my file in reader spreads to post on digital formats but also be able to printout the booklet for distribution. Another approach that will work (very old school), if you have Acrobat Distiller you can print out you booklet using reader spreads and choose the booklet print in Affinity as a postscript. After the postscript has finished, take the file into acrobat distiller and convert to a pdf with your desired pdf profile preset. That's pretty much the way had to to do it back in the day with Quark to get pdfs before applications started enabling export to PDF. I suggested distiller because for some reason when you print to PDF from the print dialog box (MAC), it causes our RIP to crash and we have to restart the RIP and convert the problematic file to a JPG (ugh!). I'm hoping Affinity will come up with a PDF setting where you can PDF to booklet from reader spreads to print ready spreads to take out the extra recreating documents because they have been setup in reader or printer spreads.
