Hi R C-R, Thank you so much for that helpful explanation. I haven't used Affinity Photo yet, just a little of A-Pub. So, when I click on the paperclip icon preceding the file name that doesn't just download a file with the Cloud Library, Kanopy, etc. it downloads a whole software application for A-Pub and then installs that application to run wit A-Pub every time you open A-Pub? Thank you again.

Hi RC-R, We have Affinity Publisher loaded on a desktop PC at the library. I'm not sure what the letters AP stand for that you mentioned to switch to Photo Personal? Thank you for your help. Since the OP mentioned doing this in APub, unless they have AP as well (so they can switch to its Photo Persona), they will not have access to the Flood Select Tool....

Hi vkr, I wear a lot of hats at our public library (3D printing learning, fixing, teaching, creating running an marketing programs and other library tasks) I'm rarely assigned to working on A-Pub skills (even beginner) of Affinity Publisher. I'm usually at a different assigned desk each hour of the day multitasking through a variety of software programs. So, I apologize for such a basic question but once I get to that vector page (by simply loading the graphic image tgo A-Pub) if you could please possibly provide screen shots of the steps you take to then substitute a black background for white or how to substitute a black background for transparent that would be immensely helpful to me. It's fascinating to me how everyone has different methods which work for them. Thank you so much.

Hi All, I'm in emergency mode helping a ton of people with a plethora of questions on the run at a public library after Hurricane Ian. I need to change this .png from a black background to transparent so when we print 50 copies of it on flyer it doesn't consume a lot of ink. Is there an easy/quick way to to do that in A-Pub? Screenshots would be most appreciated. Thank you for your understanding and help. Charles.

Hi there, A-Pub seems like it offers a lot of features but as a newbie to graphic editing it would be so appreciated if skills sets could be taught with screenshots. I've taught a number of people at a library how to do 3D printing and they've learned best with screenshots with large and clear enough lettering so you can see on the screenshot exactly what you should see on screen. The YT videos have such tiny lettering on screen (watched on 42 inch TV screens with high resolution) and can barely male out what the characters or icons are on screen. Yes, it's more time consuming to produce a screenshot but for the newbie learner it's the next best teaching technique to sitting with a good instructor. Thank you.

I opened an A-Pub creation created by a different person. I wanted to ascertain the font style and size the used. They created it in its own text box so I clicked on the text box but I don't see the font style/size listed anywhere. I clicked on the Document (tab) and there's a Font Manager which lists 5 different fonts. How can I best ascertain the font style/size used? I'm using A-Pub on Windows 10. Thank you.

Hi Mike... I hope this message finds you well. This one is totally on me. I created a graphic in MS Paint on the run but forgot to write down the style it was. I copied and pasted an image of it on the site what the font but they just wanted to sell me fonts. I then uploaded it to squirrel font but it found nothing. With your eagle eye, would you pls. take an educated guess at what font style the attached might be? Thank you!

Hi my esteemd listmates, Someone created the attached flyer in MS Publisher. I was wondering if there's any way in A-Pub to detect which font style and which text effects settings were applied? Is there any kind of a "properties" tab which might reveal this info? Thank you! 0 Flyer - Font Style - Text Effects.pub

I'm at the very beginning of A-Pub. I want to create a figure in Apub with waves behind them and different colored backgrounds. I have a set of directions but without graphics with them and lacking years of experience with A-Pub I'm trying to learn this step-by-step and YT videos are not the solution as I don't see on my Windows 10 laptop what others can see on their Macs. Large, easily readable graphics like the ones you've posted are great. Do you enlarge your screen first and then do a screen capture to post on this thread?
