@Walt, After putting the files in the correct directory no problems anymore. Thank you

Right this is my first time to try and Install Dutch spelling on a Mac. I have followed the thread, placed the files (from Walt) in a folder in the ~/Library/Spelling. Restarted the Mac and Publisher but no luck also I don't see a additional dictonary folder in the preferente folder ...

I work only with scanned TIF files, and lately I have noticed that my EXIF data is gone after saving. This is not good, I really need my Exif data !!! It seems that I can't see this information within Affinity ? My workflow is as followed: Scan the image Edit in Affinity Save run exiftool to add the needed fields Now when opening the file again and saving all my exif data is gone.

I support this also, as I need this also for my digital negatives

Thanks for the quick response, well I’m going to start with the master and see how it goes from there. Experiance has learned me over the years, that there is always a subtle difference in each channel. And for me this is still the best way to convert a analog image and to have the ‘correct’ film look. I’m going to ask for a feature request for this option.

I’m quite close to stop using Adobe, but I’m still struggling with one thing I can’t find. As a analog photographer, I scan my negatives always as positive. My workflow on Mac - I use a curve to make the image positive. - Levels, for each color (RGB) I use the alt key to drag the sliders toward the point where the history just before complete black or white. In photoshop you can see this visible. This does not seems to work in Affinity ... or am I missing this. So is there a way to do this. Thank you
