  1. I currently tested the file with some online PDF validation tools:
    1) https://www.pdf-online.com/osa/validate.aspx
    2) https://www.pdfen.com/pdf-a-validator
    Both tell me that the "vali
    dation was successful" and that is in PDF 1.4 format.
    I also tried the service
    3) https://tools.pdfforge.org/validate-pdfa
    It tests whether the PDFfile conforms to the PDF/A standard. As it isn't a PDF/A document, the validation was not successful but I opened the document once again in Tracker PDF X-Change Pro and saved it as PDF/A. The new document was validated by 3) successful as PDF/A document. I attach the new PDF/A document. Maybe it helps others to open it without crash. I also tested it once again with Adobe Reader on Windows and it did not crash. It showed the same as the provided screenshot.

    Affinity Publisher Issue with PDF Import of a Bitmap Graphic PDF-A.pdf

  2. The PDF was originally created by a third party which I don't want to mention here, but I opened it in Tracker PDF X-Change Editor, modified the displayed text, and saved it as PDF using Tracker PDF X-Change Pro. The file can also be opened in Adobe Acrobat Reader on Windows without any problems but Affinity Publisher does not display the graphic/image.

    I think that it doesn' t matter how the PDF was created but that it is a valid PDF file, and Affinity Publisher does not import the PDF correctly.

  3. I used Affinity Publisher 1.10.1.1142 on Windows (Windows 10 (21H1) Professional x64) to test the import of PDF files. Unfortunately, some graphics / images of PDF files are not displayed after the import. I tried all possible import settings which I found, but each time I got the same result. When I open the same PDF files with Tracker PDF-XChange Pro, the graphics /images are displayed. I attached a sample PDF file to reproduce this issue together with a screenshot of the same file opened in Tracker PDF-XChange Pro. I already tested the same PDF file with Affinity Publisher 1.9.0 and 1.9.2. As the problem also exists in the current version, I decided to open this issue, and I hope that the problem can be solved in the near future.

    For Your information:

    1) I did not activate Hardware Acceleration (Preferences > Performance);

    2) I used File -> Open and selected the PDF file to open it in Affinity Publisher. I dialog opened and I tried all possible configuration options to inport the PDF file. No combination of options was successful.
