Thank you @Hangman. I don't, would that help me get 100K exported as 100K?

Hey @thomaso! Thank you for your time – YOUR FILE WORKS! However I'm heavily perplexed – should the document Assign/Convert option affect the behavior? The simulation was the same in the doc and pdf settings, just that general, I believed, setting made a difference... Also, why that Assign/Convert is always reverting to Convert after closing the dialog...? Thank you again

That's a great question. As long as the Affinity file and preview simulation in Acrobat are U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2, it's okay – I can't see Yellow for pure black. Otherwise it looks like above. I just double checked with Colour Profile Coated Fogra39 (both in Affinity and Acrobat) and I have problem. When I open .pdf in Indesign and Affinity again I can see the 'rich' black as well.

Hey, what's the reason the artboards are not aligned to full pixels (even if the proper option is checked, units are pixels etc)? The obvious problem is that exported images might have different (than set in the app) size in pixels... Thanks Janek

pure-black-01.afdesignArtboard1.pdf Hey, I'd love to be proved wrong or dumb. I've been using Affinity almost 10 years. It looks good in Affinity, but I couldn't find a proper PDF setting to get the output right.

Sure, as you can see it's 100K in Affinity, while not exported as that in .pdf. I have to export items individually and combine them in Adobe Indesign, but with every update that's getting more and more embarrassing... Thank you, Janek

Hey, it's a few years with this bug, it's ridiculous. Even though I have only one plate selected (100K), I still get a rich black in the output. There's no pdf option, swatch variant that could prevent that transformation during export. OMG. Why it's not there? What's so hard about that? How am I suppose to overcome the issue? Thank you, Janek

I'm heavily disappointed with lack of bleed preview in Affinity Designer. It's essential, omg.

+1 very imporant tool with multiple uses and next feature to stand out ;) thanks
