Can someone help me understand why my page sizes are different? I clicked on "add a page" and sometimes it adds one size and other times another size. Thanks, Andy Pearson

It appears as though the replies are using designer and not publisher. Should I be doing this in Designer?

how do you "clip the copy below the text"? thanks

How can I accomplish transparent text such as the examples attached please?

OK. Is there a way for me to request this tool be considered for addition in a later version of Affinity? This "Resize/Resample" tool was in PagePlus, and I've never seen this type of tool in any other editing software, and it was one of the most useful tools in PagePlus. Thanks

I'm so sorry but how do I get to, "Resize Document dialogue box"?

Any new thoughts on how I might be able to achieve this in Affinity? Thanks

new document

Yes I have Affinity suite on desktop...publisher, photo, and designer. thanks

I'm still getting used to Affinity. I come from many years of using PagePlus. Here is my question. In PagePlus there was a "resample" option that was very very helpful in cleaning up image files and the perception of their resolution/quality. I cannot find anything like this in Affinity. Can someone help me with that? Thanks

Again thanks so very much.

That is so helpful thanks so much. forgive my ignorance but what does "bumping the dev log" mean? Thanks again

file attached Mapping out Go'd Tender Mercies - Copy.afpub

Please attached. there are three versions (test png.png) was exported from Publisher as a png file and still has the white background visible. (test export.jpg) was exported from Publisher a a jpg file and still has the white background visible. (Mapping God's Mercies- slide1.jpg) was exported from Publisher, then opened in Affinity Photo, cropped out the white backgrounds, and then exported back out of Affinity Photo as a .jpg file and it is perfect. Can this not be done in Publisher? Thanks

Sorry I think I uploaded the wrong file...here is the file with the problem.

When I select a image in Affinity Publisher and export it as a .jpg file (transparent without background)...it adds a portion of the white background page to the exported image. How can I select an image and export only the selected image? Thanks

I'm sorry but I do see how to do the transparency vertical or horizontal, but I'm not finding any tutorials on how to do it in a circle like my PagePlus example. I am eager to learn, please help. Thanks again.

Ok now...What about an elipse transparent gradient effect. Again I have attached the effect I'm referring to from PagePlus. Can this be done in Affinity? Thanks

In the attached examples from PagePlus there are 2 simple rectangles. One with vertical and one with horizontal fading gradient transparency. it was a simple black rectangle shape then added a gradient transparency in PagePlus. How can I accomplish this same type of outcome in Affinity Publisher? thanks, Andy

Got it. thanks for the help.

I am asking this about Publisher, not Designer or Photo? I cannot find the "intensity" effects option in Publisher.

I'm coming from years of pageplus. I'm missing the intensity option on drop shadow effects. Is there a work around for this in affinity?
