Thanks, that was it! I didn't see that thing. I wish it said something like O for outline. Wonder how the outline got there.

I have been pasting text from Word into an Affinity Publisher document. Generally it's fine, but in some cases, the font (I'm using Times New Roman) is coming out looking thicker, like not quite bold but visibly thicker than other times. If I type into it it's still bold. If I start all over with a new text box and type, then it comes out OK. But that's a lot of work, and most of the time, the paste is fine. I've checked to see if it's a layers issue but can't find any indication that it is (there's also an image layer and the text box is above the image). Is there any fix or explanation for this? Is it a bug? Thanks.

I see so do that first, then it doesn't matter if the export is resampled. Thank you!

Thanks but I can't a find a way to turn OFF resampling. It's not an option in the Export menu. The resampling may be causing the lossiness. Photoshop gives you an option to turn it off. In resize document you can turn it off but I want to export to jpg, and in the Export it's just on. It gives you choices of what kind of resampling to do, but I don't want to resample. I tried first resizing it with the resampling off, but hit the same snag when exporting.

I have the same issue. I opened jpg photos iin Affinity Photo, created borders on them, flattened them, saved as afphoto, then made them smaller from 300 to 72 dpi. They exported blurry as jpg. When I do the same thing in other programs they are fine. Affinity did not give a a choice of whether to resample, it just resamples them (Photoshop lets you decide). I stopped using Affinity Photo for this task. If anyone has a solution please let me know! Thanks.
