    Patrick Connor reacted to Hangman in Error export PDF - Designer 2.1.0 on MacOS   
    Hi @grabuge,
    So the issue with the roll up.pdf is the same as mentioned above in that for some unknown reason pixelart printing include a zero width no-break space at the start of most of the metadata fields, denoted by the Hex reference FEFF...

    The zoning.pdf has no Subject but again it does have a zero width no-break space which is causing the error when exporting the file...

    The workaround for both files is as @Patrick Connor and @Dan C mention above, to go to Window > References > Fields in Publisher (assuming you have Publisher), then mouse click in the Subject field, hit Delete followed by Enter, then both files will export to pdf...
    In case you don't have Publisher I've re-exported both pdf files and have attached them here, so hopefully these will work for you but if not just let us know...
    roll up export.pdf

    Please make an additional bug report on the failure to import these fields correctly, which then exposes the export bug (Note, even if these characters start importing correctly from this sort of file, the export bug will still needs fixing for when these sort of characters are pasted into the fields values for example)

    Patrick Connor reacted to Hangman in Error export PDF - Designer 2.1.0 on MacOS   
    Hi @Dan C and @Patrick Connor,
    So, it turns out the cause of the pdf export bug is quite straightforward... it's caused when using either a zero width no-break space and/or accented characters in the Subject field of an Affinity Publisher document...
    Taking a look at the pdf template file metadata for the files uploaded by @Thomas Serafini which were downloaded from pixartprinting, when you look at the Subject entry, (shown as Template in Acrobat), the template itself uses Hex code to define the majority of fields...
    At the start of most fields, i.e., Creator, Title, Author and Subject, the Hex code starts with FEFF which is the Hex code for a zero width no-break space. When included in the Subject field of an Affinity Publisher document you will see The file could not be created error message when attempting to export an opened pdf file.
    Note 1: This only affects the Subject field in Publisher, other fields using zero width no-break space or accented characters are not affected...
    Note 2: On macOS, if the Subject field is populated with either a zero width no-break space or accented character, when the exported pdf is opened in Publisher the Subject field appears to be empty, I'm assuming on Windows this is where the two empty (rectangle) characters are displayed?

    Note 3: Please excuse the apparent 'pauses' during the screen recording, this is down to fans kicking in (something to do with the excessive UK heatwave we're enjoying at the moment, read 20°C or maybe just poor QT performance on Intel Macs in general)... 🌞

    Patrick Connor reacted to Dan C in Error export PDF - Designer 2.1.0 on MacOS   
    No problem at all!
    Inspecting the files in Acrobat, it appears as though these PDFs were created by 'PixartPrinting S.P.A' in an application that was not Affinity, hence the PDF library used is not Affinitys.
    I too am curious as to the users exact workflow, as I have imported their PDF into Publisher 2.0.4, where the Fields are not imported, then saved the .afpub file and opened this in 2.1.0. This file then exports as expected in 2.1.0, as the Subject Field was never imported

    Be aware that the default behaviour for 'Searching' has changed to be context aware - when viewing an existing thread the search will default to 'This Topic' which may cause some confusion or empty results. You can change the area you're searching before you search from the dropdown under the 'More Search Options > Content Type' setting as previous.

Shock horror the AI crowd piled in proclaiming it was generated which seems to be the way now if it’s more complicated than a stick man.

    Patrick Connor reacted to Image Surgery in No DXF EXPORT in Designer 2 ..are you serious!?   
    Patrick, thanks for your calm replies to this heated thread, and add to it another calm request from a long-time user who's just getting started in a new application of their design skills, and would really appreciate the addition of DXF export and the accompanying reduction of trips to other packages as midway hops in a never-ending sea of unitless formats and differing interpretations of fine detail my work now entails.
    ---
    For all of you slinging fierce barbs at people you don't know or slinging them right back at other people you also don't know, it's not a good look. You know little about other's situations, or how they may have come to the point they're at. As an example, I've paid for and used both versions of all three of these wonderful apps, typeset a full book for a friend as a starter project, used it as my 'home solution' for years because it was (and remains) affordable and excellent, and only recently picked up laser cutting and CNC routing. It's at this point that I now need DXF, so free trials or paid trials or demo versions or anything else wouldn't work for my particular situation, now would I have known about this in advance (because of a lack of concurrence of events called 'time' or 'life'). I'm here now, asking for a thing that does exist but doesn't exists here, and trying to do so in a respectful and kind manner. I've also found solutions to all the issues which are being presented, but none of them are easy or pretty, so I still think it's a valid ask. Plus, by asking, developers such as Patrick and others at Serif get better information about how people both use their products, and wish to use their products. 
    Bottom line: I'm here now, and would like to request this feature please, for all the good reasons stated before, and it's not 100% critical but it is a real and major factor in my workflow.
    Honestly have no idea where the vitriol is coming from, other than 'the internet', 'these days', and 'people'. Did I miss 'feature request'? How does that even work? Sheesh.
    Lastly, for any of you working with equipment you own or manage directly, try Lightburn, and try using PDF as an intermediary. It's certainly not CAD, but as a workflow it is simple and maintains scale correctly. Results in my experience have been indistinguishable, however it obviously requires paid software and a small amount of testing, so it might not work in all situations. Hopefully it will help some, and if not, create a bit of interesting vitriol itself for daring to be… suggested. *wink, wink*

    Patrick Connor reacted to walt.farrell in Affinity Designer | Bullet point | Bug   
    This is not a bug, @BBG3, but the way the Affinity applications are designed to work. The formatting characteristics of the first character apply to the bullet/number, too.
    To avoid that, note that in the Bullets and Numbering settings (Paragraph panel, or Paragraph Text Style) there is a field for a Character Text Style that will be applied to the Bullet/Number. So:
    Define a Character Text Style for the Bullet/Number that you want to use. Specify that Character Teat Style in the Bullets and Numbering section of the Paragraph panel or the Paragraph Text Style you're using for the text. Then format the first character of the text as you want it. (I'm away from the computer, and can't provide a screenshot at the moment. The field (though not its usage) is described in the Help, though not shown. https://affinity.help/designer2/en-US.lproj/pages/Panels/paragraphPanel.html

    Patrick Connor reacted to ehrenkd in I have activated V2 app(s) successfully but I'm still prompted to activate on app launch   
    Dan:
    I do believe there is something that Affinity can do to help  prevent this from occurring. A simple statement "Please note: do not mix installers between MSIX and MSI for Affinity software (Designer, Photo, and/or Publisher) on Windows systems as this will cause activation problems and require removal and clean installation." inserted in the circled area might help prevent this. Thanks for your help,

    Patrick Connor reacted to rui_mac in Scripting   
    If someone in the Scripting development team at Affinity could answer me this, it would be great.
    In other applications I use, that allow for scripting (mainly, Cinema 4D and VizRT), besides being able to create scripts that can be executed from a menu listing (Cinema 4D, only), I can also attach a kind of a "tag" to an object that runs scripting code in real time, whenever the scene/document is changed/refreshed.
    That way, I can perform scripting operations on the object that the "tag" is attached and also on its children.
    Will Affinity scripting abilities only allow for scripts that can be invoked from a menu or will we have a new type of "tag" to attach to our "layers/objects" that can allow us to add abilities/behaviours to any "layer/object"?
    Something like my mockup...

    With the roll out of Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher for Windows version 2.0.4, Serif are making available Unsandboxed installers (also known here as MSI/EXE installers). These installers will be made for all future V2 release builds going forward and will autoupdate from within the application (checking for updates on each run, like the sandboxed version does)
    Serif do not recommend or support mixtures of MSIX and MSI on the same computer. You should only use either all sandboxed or all unsandboxed,  particularly if you have more than one Affinity V2 application installed.
    You can now download (and install) Windows unsandboxed MSI/EXE installer files (as well as Windows sandboxed MSIX installer files) from these store pages.
